Since the introduction of 3D scanning technology, there has always been a need to process it in some capacity. There has also been a need to provide formats to bridge multiple platforms, getting data to travel through the lifecycle of the process. 

Today’s design and manufacturing world is quickly evolving to a model-based environment, one where intelligent 3D CAD models are the authority, containing not only the information to build a part or assembled product, but also to verify the end result against the nominal 3D CAD design. 

Modern SPC software solutions provide numerous benefits as they provide visual information in the form of control charts to reveal abnormalities in manufacturing processes.

Measurement is vital to any manufacturing business, providing essential information to control processes and verify products. But older co-ordinate measuring machines (CMMs) can become bottlenecks if they fail to keep pace with changing measurement needs.

How will this image be used? Do I anticipate any changes? What are your tolerance requirements? All these questions are paramount in determining the successful path of the data output and each are mutually exclusive of one another.

R&R Fixtures introduces FixtureBuilder 2016, a 3D CAD Software for documenting our modular CMM and vision fixture setups & doing offline part programming. 

Building aircraft has always been a struggle between the size of their components and the need to craft them carefully. 

Since the advent of industry 4.0, the control of first parts is more of a crucial step in the manufacturing process than ever before.

ARO’s Laser Line Probe HD is a non-contact 3D Laser Scanning attachment for the FaroArm. When combined with the FARO Edge Arm the system is known as the FARO Edge ScanArm HD.
