The DIKUQ project has developed a semi-automated process chain for forming steel sheets for shipbuilding. Fraunhofer IOF designed a novel inline 3D measurement system that can digitally capture workpieces in less than half a second and reconstruct them as 3D images. The system reduces the workload for specialists and minimizes quality fluctuations.

For the new generation of the Cayenne, Porsche is using high-voltage batteries developed and manufactured entirely in-house. In doing so, the sports car manufacturer is continuing to expand its own battery expertise in a focused manner and deepening its technological expertise in the field of electromobility while also laying the foundation for maximum performance, efficiency and quality – made in Europe.

Crytur specializes in the design, production, and delivery of integrated optoelectronic and optomechanical assemblies. The foundation of these products lies in synthetic crystals, which Crytur produces in-house. Because the company’s products demand exceptional dimensional and shape accuracy, Crytur relies on high-end measuring machines and gauges from Mitutoyo to ensure every component meets stringent specifications.

Working with Dyne Testing, Burnside trialed the SITA Cleanospector. The device utilizes UV fluorescence spectroscopy to detect residual organic contaminants. By illuminating metal surfaces with UV light, the sensor measures the intensity of the resulting fluorescence from oils, greases, and cooling lubricants.

When a leading FAA-certified repair station faced the challenge of replicating critical components without original design documentation, it turned to NVision, Inc. NVision provides complete reverse engineering, encompassing 3D scanning, 3D CAD modeling, 2D drawings, and materials analysis.

In the high-precision world of the semiconductor industry, every micrometer counts. To ensure the exact, contactless positioning of even the smallest components, esmo AG, a leading provider of special machine engineering, automation technology, and semiconductor handling, relies on optical inspection technology from senswork in its Talos system series.

Combining advanced sensor technology from Kistler with a patented digital motion system from ATS LSS, Symphoni platform delivers real-time in-line quality assurance for medical devices, up to 320 parts per minute with 90 percent less tooling and full traceability.

Wagon Automotive’s production environment involves highly complex parts with varied geometries that must be inspected with tight tolerances. Ensuring consistent measurement accuracy while maintaining production speed presented a significant challenge.

Design and contract manufacturing firm ActionPlas Group, specialising in machining and fabricating plastic, metal components and assemblies for a wide variety of industries including automotive, food and drink, pharmaceutical and power generation, has upgraded its quality control department with the purchase of an Altera M 20.12.10 coordinate measuring machine (CMM) from LK Metrology.

In pharmaceutical manufacturing, the integrity of the final product depends not only on how it is produced but also on how it is inspected, labelled and packaged. At high production volumes, these end-of-line processes must deliver both speed and absolute reliability while meeting stringent regulatory standards.

Researchers at TU Wien University have unveiled an inline imaging-ellipsometer purpose-built for roll-to-roll (R2R) production, with an Allied Vision EXO250ZU3 polarized camera at its core. The system delivers real-time, full-area optical thickness measurement of functional coatings directly on moving foils, eliminating the sampling delays and blind spots that have long plagued R2R quality assurance.

The Mitutoyo MiSTAR 555 is a 3D CNC CMM designed for precision, reliability, and durability – essential for frequent student use. Equipped with real-time temperature compensation technology, it maintains accuracy across a wide range of environmental conditions.
