In an age where, if it doesn’t have a digital display it’s not modern, we tend to forget how the levels of precision we measure to came about in the first place. This is a brief look at one of the people we are indebted to for their discoveries and inventions from many years ago.

We’ve all heard it before. Someone says, “If you want my opinion...” and they give it to you even after you’ve told them you don’t want it.

If you’re having problems with thread measurements but the answers you’re getting from your usual sources aren’t solving them, it’s natural that you would try and get some unbiased advice from a specialist.

Since the invention of the vernier caliper in the 1850s, dimensional metrology has played a critical role in driving the manufacturing industry to its current levels of excellence.

System integration may seem complex. But the basic process is one that has been ongoing and evolving since a cave man first thought to attach a handle to a rock. 

Multisensor systems have come a long way since the introduction of video measurement back in the 1970s. 

A theory of process improvement.
