Driving Down Inspection Time for Critical Aviation and Aerospace Components

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.
