Until now, the power of seeing through walls has been reserved for superheroes with X-ray vision. This meant that manufacturers of plastic and composite components often had to cut or break apart a prototype or product to measure and analyze internal features and identify discrepancies.
CT scanners are a solution to the problem of inspecting internal and external surfaces of a part without having to cut them open or otherwise destroy them.
As a global leading provider of Industrial CT (Computed Tomography) Scanning Services, JG&A Metrology Center utilizes 3-D non-destructive inspection methods.
Manufacturers of complex component parts understand all too well how important it is to acquire an accurate and precise scale of measurement to check their parts to specification and establish conformity with the data.
Although there seem to have been several high-profile quality control issues in the aerospace industry in recent years—such as several large recalls from high-profile airplane manufacturers—quality control in the aerospace arena is improving.
