In Aerospace manufacturing, precision, productivity, and quality are more important than ever. Shop floor metrology, or measurements applied directly within the manufacturing environment, ensures these factors can be achieved. Metrology gives you confidence in your parts, in your process, and at every level. This whitepaper explores how shop floor metrology is transforming manufacturing.
3D measurement technology key to quality assurance for critical medical components Laser-cut hypotubes (LCHT) have become indispensable in modern medical technology. The delicate structures of these extremely thin metal tubes enable minimally invasive procedures such as catheter ablation, stent insertion and neurovascular procedures. Understandably, traditional quality assurance inspection is difficult for these miniature parts. However, according to the experts at Aerotech, innovative 3D measurement technologies are opening up new possibilities for detecting even the smallest deviations that would hinder reliability.
