Portable metrology tools can be used in a variety of environments, whether it’s a factory floor, construction site, dry dock, or large-scale assembly plant.
Discover how portable metrology tools like laser trackers and 3D scanners enhance onsite machining by enabling real-time measurements and adjustments, ensuring accuracy and minimizing defects in complex geometries.
Dustin Smith, metrology and software training lead at Assurance Technologies Inc., addresses common questions from his GD&T course. He emphasizes the need for everyone—from sales to engineering, production, and quality—to have a basic understanding of GD&T.
The Paris 2024 Olympics highlight global unity and the crucial role of metrology in ensuring accuracy and fairness in sports. Precise timing in events like track and swimming, accurate measurements in javelin and cycling, and monitoring environmental factors all contribute to the integrity of the Games and uphold competitive excellence.
As high-energy systems become more powerful and AI-driven analysis becomes more sophisticated, CT will continue to play a crucial role in ensuring the safety, reliability, and performance of aerospace components.
X-ray CT is crucial for the aerospace industry, offering nondestructive insights into components' inner structure, aiding in defect detection, maintenance, and research. High-energy CT is advancing the technology, allowing for detailed imaging and shaping the industry.
Laser-based NDT methods continue to be refined and improved, with recent significant advancements in the measurement of difficult-to-inspect shiny surfaces, underwater and radiation environments.
An Industry 4.0 mindset and a “lights-out” style of operation is driving quality and manufacturing teams to integrate measurements and process controls more tightly. The hope is that localized, closed loops will provide great benefits, including lower manufacturing costs, lower labor costs, and improved product quality.
Advanced 3D digitalization technologies offer a solution with a modernized NDT alternative that saves time and money and unlocks access to more information in a single measurement session.
What level of quality do you feel is required in orthopedic implants, pacemakers and other critical, life-sustaining medical devices? The highest quality, of course!
We review essential software specifications and cover how those attributes can be leveraged when considering computer-controlled physical product testing equipment in the lab or on the shop floor.
On Demand Nexus, Hexagon’s cloud-based innovation platform, boosts productivity for measurement creation, analysis, and asset management. Together, PC-DMIS and Nexus elevate metrology production operations to new heights.
This event is part of our Live Streaming program where we give attendees who cannot make it to The Quality Show the opportunity to view presentations and download valuable content. In this session, you will learn how integrating metrology data into a "single source of truth" improves quality management, collaboration, and agility in manufacturing amid unpredictable supply chains.
