System inspects tiny watch components with submicron accuracy.

Creaform, a business of AMETEK, Inc., is making a significant step forward in its software offering, reflecting a strategic evolution by introducing Creaform.OS™ and the Creaform Metrology Suite™, which leverage the hardware-software synergy to deliver a complete 360° 3D scanning solution.

Consider two fields of science, having at the first look, no relation with metrology: Architecture-Archeology and Psychology.

Unplanned downtime challenges manufacturers, but AI-powered predictive maintenance helps predict failures and reduce costs. A Deloitte study shows that 86% of executives view intelligent factory technologies as crucial for future competitiveness.

ERP systems have evolved to integrate key business functions and remain relevant, but their complex implementation requires effective planning for success.

The medical device industry needs strict testing that meets evolving standards. Collaboration between manufacturers and standards committees ensures accurate and reliable testing solutions. Automation can standardize processes, tackle the shortage of qualified lab personnel, and enhance quality and efficiency.

Fluor Corporation announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Chief Operating Officer (COO), Jim Breuer, as Chief Executive Officer (CEO), effective May 1, 2025.

The gaging setting standard is essential for accurate measurements in high-performance manufacturing, despite often being overlooked. While digital calipers are versatile, they lack the precision of comparative gages that rely on a master-setting standard for sub-micron accuracy. Proper use of this standard can enhance performance and lower calibration costs.

As manufacturing quality demands grow, the shift to artificial intelligence (AI) presents an opportunity to streamline paper-intensive processes, reduce errors, and enhance product quality through better data integration.

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.
