Quality control has long been an integral part of the production process by contributing to smooth operations and avoiding extra costs. Today, we are seeing significant changes to the industrial metrology market due to the rising demand to collect data for statistical and monitoring analysis. Increased use of cloud services for metrological data management and the rising awareness of industry 4.0 standards are also expected to considerably boost the innovation in handheld gaging.
With the integration of flexibility and automation into the world of metrology, dedicated benches are now substituted with flexible benches. In addition, the measurement process is continuously improving to become more user-friendly, due to significant improvements in software development and user interfaces.
