When is the last time you heard someone win an award, walk up to the microphone and say, “There’s no one to thank; I did it all myself. So, I’ll going to put this award on my mantle where I can easily share it with me, myself and I.”
Italian motorcycle manufacturer Ducati revved up manufacturing efficiencies on its Desmodromic engines by turning to automated laser tool monitoring provided by Renishaw.
Regardless of size, facilities with the need to calibrate instruments can benefit from the implementation of calibration software. Such software allows an organization to keep all calibration records, calibration procedures and requirements, instrument location and instrument history records in a secure, readily accessible database.
3-D laser scanning, which has matured during the past 10 years, is on the verge of revolutionizing the micrometrology market in automotive, aerospace and many other markets.
The CT solution described in this article enables a reduction in scanning and reconstruction times to less than 2 minutes in total. Results are achieved through enhanced synchronization of scanning algorithms and sampling rate of detectors. This in combination with a high-power microfocus X-ray tube and fast reconstruction algorithms supported by hardware accelerators leads to previously unknown speeds of 3-D X-ray inspections.
Leak testing is used across a gamut of industries to ensure part integrity. Three common types of leak tests are tracer gas leak testing, bubble emission leak testing and air leak testing.
Once again, business trips led me to Florida and Michigan. A recent Thursday and Friday were spent in Lake Buena Vista, FL, and on Monday I was back at the airport at dawn for my flight to Detroit.
Industrial computed tomography (CT) is a unique nondestructive evaluation technique for inspecting interior structures of test objects. While computed tomography has long been used by radiologists for medical diagnostics applications, industrial CT brings the same technique to inspection applications.
For an ISO 10328 test system, Orion Test Systems & Engineering Inc. chose RMC75 two-axis motion controllers manufactured by Delta Computer Systems Inc. to excersice the device under test.
