Top 5 Industries Benefiting from Multisensor Measuring Machines
Optical measuring instruments and multisensor measuring systems continue to emerge as vital tools for accurate dimensional measurement and optical measurement. The following five industries are utilizing these technologies to effectively address their manufacturing needs.
1. Aerospace Engineering
Aerospace engineering primarily involves the construction, design, and maintenance of aircraft. It also includes environmental impact, flight safety, and fuel efficiency. And with the use of vision measuring systems and optical measuring instruments, inspection of components related to Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul services is now possible.
As the aerospace engineering industry evolves, the use of such instruments and technology is becoming more essential. Moreover, as engineers and scientists keep developing innovative solutions, utilizing and relying on vision measuring systems is inevitable.
2. Automotive
The automotive industry is one of the top industries where Optical Gaging products such as SmartScope® Flash™ CNC series, SmartScope® ZIP® series, Cobra™ 2D/3D, and StarLite™ series are widely applied. In this industry, optical measurement continues to have a significant impact and supports the acquisition of more accurate data in less time. And with the high demands for automation, delivery of precise measured data with repeat accuracy is required.
For the automotive industry, optical measuring instruments are used for the measurement of connection systems, driver interface, engine valves, gear shafts, infotainment, safety electronics, sensors, security systems, and more.
3. Energy (Solar/Oil Gas) Defence
As the energy & defence sectors become increasingly dynamic, reliable measurements are necessary. And this is where vision measuring systems come in. With such systems and technology, the following activities are made possible: (1) inspection of solar wafers; (2) inspection of equipment components in oil well production, and; (3) inspection of weapons assembly.
There are actually multiple fields of application in the energy industry where optical measuring instruments & vision measuring systems ensure reliable results. Some of these include durability tests on energy industry components and structural testing.
4. Medical
The medical industry is another one of the major industries where Optical Gaging products such as SmartScope® ZIP® Series, SmartScope® VANTAGE™ series, and SmartScope® Flash™ CNC series are widely applied. These instruments are used for the measurement of various medical devices or health care product components including cardiovascular accessories & devices, infusion & injection, orthopedics, pharmacy, surgical instruments, vial system components, the list goes on.
5. Telecommunications
Last but not the least is the telecommunications industry, where a range of Optical Gaging products are used to enable measure and construction functions to obtain the size and geometric dimensions of connectors, camera modules, glass screens, mobile phone enclosures, and more.
