Stahl Lasertechnik GmbH, a German specialist in metal sheet processing, has significantly upgraded its quality control processes by integrating Kreon 3D measurement solutions. Facing challenges in maintaining high-precision inspection and detecting deformation defects in complex assemblies, the company sought an advanced solution for First Article Inspection (FAI), process optimization, and comprehensive part measurement management.

The drive to reduce tooling costs and accelerate development cycles has led engineers at AMRC Cymru, UK to explore whether 3D-printed moulds can offer a practical alternative for prototype and low-volume injection moulding.

Scanning is not a new technology, but its maturation has enabled a quiet transformation in the automotive aftermarket sector. When used together with CAD modelling, it allows teams to design and make parts more efficiently than ever and grow their business.

TeamViewer, a leader in digital workplace solutions, is enhancing Test & Development efficiency for the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team, through Augmented Reality (AR) technology.

Engine cooling fan failure in commercial vehicle applications can result in power unit overheating and catastrophic engine damage. To mitigate these risks, a leading manufacturer of engine components has deployed an advanced machine vision system based on SVS-Vistek cameras to enforce zero-defect quality standards.

Every measurement matters when your products must perform reliably in the harshest environments on Earth. It’s a testament to Aberlink’s excellence that we’re now investing in our fourth Axiom CMM.

3D scanners utilize high-resolution cameras and powerful blue LED structured light sources. This technology allows for the rapid acquisition of millions of data points, creating a dense, highly accurate “digital twin” of a physical object in minutes.

Ahead of its inaugural rocket launch, UK-based orbital launch services company, Orbex, has dramatically boosted production for its carbon-fibre Payload Avionic Module, using MSP PerfectPart to overcome challenges with part distortion and cut part setup time from 5 hours to 30 minutes, making the process 900% faster per part.

IT architecture was set up on the basis of the Software-Defined manufacturing principle in just ten months, before the company was even founded, enabling flexible, software-controlled production processes that can be quickly adapted to new requirements, which in turn increases efficiency and innovation in manufacturing.

The solution developed by Aichi Sangyo integrates PushCorp’s Active Compliance Force Controller Device with METROL’s RC-K3X wireless touch probe to create an adaptive robotic machining cell capable of handling large, variably shaped castings.

Thermal management is critical for high-performance computing and modern electronics. AI accelerators, semiconductor equipment, and laser systems are all shrinking in size while increasing in power. With more watts concentrated in tighter spaces, engineers are hitting the thermal wall faster and more frequently.

Zebra Technologies, a leader in digitising and automating workflows to deliver intelligent operations, has announced the successful deployment of a powerful new visual inspection solution for plastic injection moulding in manufacturing.
