Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence helps industrial manufacturers develop the disruptive technologies of today and the life-changing products of tomorrow.

As part quality has gone up, it has become essential to provide not only the most complete dimensional data on a given part, but also other detectable data like simple contamination, porosities, scratches, discolorations, cracks, and other types of potential surface defects… especially in automotive powertrains.

As technology continuously makes our lives easier than ever, it’s no wonder that companies and instructors everywhere have been revamping education to include digital components in the learning process.

These days, the employees from the development department at MAPAL Dr. Kress KG generally know within an hour if new tools will offer the level of precision their customers require. Instead of having to wait days for a service provider to deliver the measurement results, the company started performing on-site measurements at the beginning of 2018. With the high-precision coordinate measuring machine ZEISS PRISMO ultra, MAPAL inspects the workpieces machined with the new tools it manufactures. The time saved on measurements helps this global company develop innovative tool solutions even more quickly for trends that will play such a pivotal role in the future like eMobility.
