This article explores the transformative impact of incorporating rotary stages into coordinate measuring systems, enhancing their capabilities and the efficiency of the measurement process.

Today’s manufacturers know the importance of having the right tool for the job. Multisensor measurement systems offer a variety of sensor technology tools, allowing for efficient and accurate results in the measurement process.

We will explore the use of CMMs, advancements in technology, and their growing contribution to support leading developments in automation, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.

Q-PLUS Labs is the leading precision dimensional measurement laboratory that, since 1987, has provided a one-stop, under-one-roof solution to all of your precision measurement, inspection, engineering, quality assurance related, and metrology equipment needs.

The science behind 3D scanners and CMM technologies is different; however, both collect coordinate measurement data and are widely used within the plastics industry. When is it better suited to use non-contact structured light 3D scanners than touch CMMs?

Today’s manufactured components are more multifaceted than ever, requiring more parts, additional updates to those parts and ever tighter tolerances. 

The quality norms of the past are being shattered by another evolution of CMM technologies arriving on the scene. The reason? Manufacturing is changing at its core. 

Recently, an automotive parts manufacturer was searching for a system to measure over 4,000 individually machined components a day. 

Quality control managers have the delicate task of verifying and guaranteeing that manufacturied parts meet customers' requirements, specifications and tolerances.

Measurement is vital to any manufacturing business, providing essential information to control processes and verify products. But older co-ordinate measuring machines (CMMs) can become bottlenecks if they fail to keep pace with changing measurement needs.
