NASA has finalized the contract for the initial crew module of the agency’s Gateway lunar orbiting outpost.

The Coordinate Metrology Society (CMS) in collaboration with the PrecisionPath Consortium (PPC) today announced the official launch of their 3D Measurement Industry-at-large Survey.

CMMs are vital measurement systems for many quality departments. Of the many active components of these systems, the software used to control and record the measurement of parts is critical to getting the most complete performance out of your machine. It is important to be diligent in your search for the software package that will best fit your needs. 

The course is a first-of-its-kind, condensed preparatory course designed to assist and inform students in the topics covered within the Coordinate Measurement Society’s (CMS) Level-One Certification for 3D Metrology.

The Coordinate Metrology Society launched the first Level-One Certification for 3D portable measurement professionals five years ago. Since that time, the organization has consistently rolled out additional assessments to support the industry. 

Metrology is the science of measurement and these skills are vital across all major growth sectors of the global economies, enabling innovation, jobs, and industry sustainability.

The Quality Show, billed as the only trade show and conference focused exclusively on quality education, technology, equipment, and products, will take place October 27-29, 2015, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, IL.
