LK Metrology has introduced the innovative COREX 250 from Ready Metrology, the holding group’s brand that develops easy-to-use X-ray CT as well as CMM solutions for shop floor applications.
Advances in technology have resulted in the development of handheld X-ray fluorescence (HHXRF) and handheld laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (HHLIBS) analyzers that can be used for on-site analysis, enabling real-time testing and often eliminating the need for destructive sampling.
The future of the automotive industry depends on sustainability and rapidly changing innovation. The availability and adoption of advanced technology solutions is driving the majority of the underlying trends in the marketplace.
CT inspection of the final part can check that the manufactured part exactly matches the initial 3D design, providing dimensional analysis and metrology of all critical internal dimensions.
Additive manufacturing (AM) probably represents the greatest paradigm shift in engineering manufacture since casting and the development of machine tools.
Computed tomography (CT) uses irradiation to produce 3D internal and external representations of scanned objects. The beginnings of CT scanning technology date back to the early 1970s. Although it was originally developed for medical imaging, CT is now used in a wide array of industrial applications including flaw detection, failure analysis, metrology, assembly analysis and reverse engineering.
