The University of Illinois Grainger College of Engineering’s Mechanical Engineering Lab (MEL) has significantly enhanced its 3D metrology capabilities with the recent installation of an MVi5 3D Metrology Center from EDM Intelligent Solutions (EDMIS). The MVi5 joins an existing RSH-SRX Robotic Metrology System from EDMIS that was installed at the lab in the spring of 2023. 

As a leading 3D metrology systems OEM, EDMIS delivers critical solutions for the most demanding applications in the Aerospace, Energy, Medical, and Semiconductor industries. Through its partnership with the University of Illinois, EDMIS is proud to support the University in accelerating engineering and manufacturing advancements. 

The AI Manufacturing Laboratory in Grainger College of Engineering is part of the Illinois Manufacturing Institute, directed by Professor William King . The Illinois Manufacturing Institute uses artificial intelligence, computer vision, additive manufacturing, metrology automation, and advanced computing to solve problems in manufacturing science and technology. The laboratory works with industry and government partners who seek to develop new solutions for future manufacturing.
