Multisensor metrology technology combines various measurement methods, such as digital cameras and touch probing, in a single system to provide fast, efficient, and accurate part measurements.

As we celebrate 100 years of the Morehouse Proving Ring, it's important to recognize the historical context of its creation and its impact on industry and safety. The late 19th and early 20th centuries saw rapid industrialization, leading to significant technological advancements and safety challenges.

Collecting measurement and test data in manufacturing is vital for enhancing productivity and cutting costs. However, if key practices are not followed, resources can be wasted. To maximize the value of quality data, three essential actions must be taken.

In the plastics industry, maintaining consistent color quality is challenging due to variations in raw materials and processing. Digital color management can enhance accuracy and communication, helping to reduce waste and errors.

PWO SEE d.o.o., a manufacturing company in Kragujevac, Serbia, faced significant challenges with their coordinate measuring machine (CMM), risking quality control and operational efficiency.

The evolution of 3D measurement systems has transformed manufacturing quality control, introducing portable CMM arms that combine precision, ease of use, and affordability.

We reveal some of the less common measuring instruments.

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

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.

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.
