The 2022 Quality State of the Profession looks at issues affecting manufacturers today. This year continues to be an unusual one.

PCMMs automated with the proper inspection software deliver user-prompted, repeatable inspection plans that can be quickly and easily set up and executed using virtually any 3D measurement technology across the manufacturing enterprise. 

In addition to measuring the distance between a sensor and its target to determine object positions and displacements, confocal chromatic sensors are capable of measuring the thickness of transparent materials.

Force testing systems have a variety of applications in the medical field, where products often require testing in multiple facets of their design.

In a technically focused organization like the American Society for Quality (ASQ), participating as a woman can be daunting at the start. While the demographics of the organization have shifted over time, many more technical roles have been seen as being “for men.”

Dealing with customer complaints presents a “moment of truth” in which frontline employees have one chance to provide a lasting impression that your organization really cares about treating them fairly and with respect.
