As I write this, America has just reelected a president, celebrated a holiday of family and probably too many mashed potatoes, and started preparing for the New Year. By the time you read this, the country will be beginning resolution season.
Machine vision is an integral part of the manufacturing process for many different industries. Manufacturers ensure the safety, consistency and integrity of the products produced through proper inspection, while being assured that defective parts are rejected from the production line.
Hexagon Metrology outsourced critical expertise and machinery to help an aerospace part manufacturer augment its inspection and measurement requirements.
From the pursuit of AS 9100 registration to lean manufacturing, companies are continually looking for the edge that will distinguish them from the competition. For AS 9100 registration, one significant advantage that is often overlooked is the audit score.
A major cause of overtesting of spacecraft, aerospace and flight hardware during random and swept sine vibration tests is associated with differences between the mechanical impedance of the shaker and mounting fixture, and the standard practice of controlling the input acceleration to the frequency envelope of the flight data. The result is artificially high shaker forces and responses at the resonance frequencies of the test item. These high forces can damage expensive payloads.
