PrecisionPath Consortium for Large-Scale Manufacturing Conducts First Working Meeting
WEATHERFORD, TX — The Coordinate Metrology Society, in collaboration with UNC Charlotte, announced the completion of the first working meeting of the PrecisionPath Consortium for Large-Scale Manufacturing.
The new project is funded by an Advanced Manufacturing Technology Consortia (AMTech) Grant from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), an agency of the U.S. Commerce Department. At the 2015 CMSC (Coordinate Metrology Society Conference) in July, the PrecisionPath Consortium held their inaugural meeting to discuss team building strategies, short- and long-term goals, and project timelines. The group is tasked to identify and prioritize the technology needs of the aerospace, defense, energy, and other industries that manufacture large-scale, high accuracy parts and products.
