In the longest-lasting version of the hypothetical situation, a hungry donkey is placed equidistant between two identical bales of hay. Paralyzed with indecision as to which bale to choose, the donkey will inevitably starve to death.
You have most likely heard it expressed as the battle between the irresistible force versus the immoveable object. More accurately, it is Newton’s Law, which, in part, states that a body at rest will stay at rest and a body in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by another force.
Calibration is an essential component of the manufacturing process, especially as demand for Industry 4.0 technologies grows. Such tools require accurate data.
Accidents and injuries, instances of nonconformance with a policy or standards—really, failures of any kind—can all contribute to a need for an organization to change.
As the industry embraces smart factories and automation, gaging software must seamlessly exchange information across all components in a production process.
Digital gaging, or the software and hardware used to take and process digital measurements, has grown considerably in the past 20 years. It has also come a long way when it comes to advancing quality.
The linchpin of automation—since before it was even referred to as such—is in its obvious benefits in increased efficiency and accuracy and its ultimate reduction in cost, time and waste.
Automated inspection systems help to improve the quality of parts and products. With few experienced CMM operators in the field, manufacturers are progressively turning to automated quality control solutions to not only stop production bottlenecks but also to boost the quality of the parts being inspected.
