What is 4D InSpec?
A handheld, 3D surface measuring gauge. It takes a measurement in about 1-2 seconds, in-situ. It’s highly accurate, with micron-level precision. The instrument was first used for measuring defects on precision machined parts. It quickly assesses scratches, pits, nicks, corrosion and other defects, and assures the quality of features like peening, scribe marks, edge blending and rivets. Its analysis software measures and quantifies edge break, radius of curvature with high precision. It’s easily set up for pass-fail analysis. 4D InSpec improves profitability in repair and new-make manufacturing processes in the aviation, automotive, nuclear and general precision machining sectors.
Why
Consider your highest-value part. If you could reduce the number of those that are
scrapped or reworked via inaccurate inspection by 40%, how much money would that save you?
What
The 4D InSpec surface measuring gauge produces fast, numerical, objective surface
information needed to assess components. By quantifying quickly and easily, customers have reported a 20-40% increase in yield.
Who & Where
The instrument instantly reports defect statistics on precision machined
parts, and is transforming throughput in the MRO process for the aviation, automotive and nuclear energy industries. It is also used in industries as diverse as furniture, cutting tools, saw blade, and solar tile manufacturing.
Benefits
• High precision, quantified measurements increase yield by saving more parts
• Return on investment is normally days to weeks
• Records reliable, repeatable results you can share to prove your outcomes
• Reduces labor by saving on dismantling and part transportation
• Improves turnaround time by eliminating waiting, increasing throughput

In industries such as aircraft engines automotive, companies need to rapidly establish the quality of components, both during production and during repair and overhaul. Many of these components are highly valuable and complex, often with hundreds of features requiring inspection.
To date, much of this inspection has been completed manually—a slow and subjective process. A new, automated system is now being adopted for rapid, repeatable, non-contact measurement of features and defects on precision machined parts. Combining the flexibility of an industry-proven optical gage and
robotic automation, the system dramatically improves inspection throughput and reliability, recording quantitative data that can be tracked throughout the component’s lifetime.
