PCMMs automated with the proper inspection software deliver user-prompted, repeatable inspection plans that can be quickly and easily set up and executed using virtually any 3D measurement technology across the manufacturing enterprise. 

When scanning was new on the market, capturing just 10,000 square feet of data in a day was considered a feat. Now, cutting-edge laser scanning technology enables manufacturers to capture 100 times that amount of information.

As the adage says, when you only have a hammer in your toolbox, every problem looks like a nail. Until this time, QA pros only had hammers.

Competing on product quality has never been more urgent as rising raw material and component costs continue to squeeze manufacturers’ margins. At the same time, unpredictable supply chains make it increasingly difficult to maintain consistent product quality and cost visibility.

Machine downtime can be expensive. It eats up profits, repair costs, and time that could otherwise be devoted to labor. Organizations can avoid this by proactively observing the condition and performance of their equipment, enabling them to predict and prevent machine failures. 

In all types of industries, machine learning (ML) tools are finding the needle in the haystack of data, augmenting quality and safety professionals with a new kind of intelligence that can unlock hidden data patterns that are impossible for the human mind or eye to absorb.

Total quality management is a way to describe a business environment where employees constantly improve their performance and are committed to maintaining high standards.

GD&T may sound like a complicated or difficult topic, however, understanding it can make your parts cheaper to produce. 

Laser scanning is quickly becoming more and more commonplace among manufacturers, regardless of industry. In recent years, laser scanning hardware and software have improved considerably, resulting in a streamlined system that can capture vast detail rapidly.

It’s difficult to find a business or industry that isn’t driven by software applications. From phones and laptops to manufacturing systems to validated applications for regulated industries, software drives many of our business processes.
