Quality Control Processes

Trenton, a manufacturer of machines and tractors used for agricultural applications, has invested in new inspection technologies to improve quality and its processes.

The comprehensive dashboard provided by Monitoring Box provides an overview of the status, name, and location, which includes job recommendations. Live status data provides all relevant data in real time. This includes device information and status, operating mode, and other data points that help to detect errors and malfunctions.

Statistical means of measuring and controlling quality can play a role in inspecting parts.

PG Inspection Technologies has acquired the assets of Laser Measuring Technologies, manufacturer of the Accu-Tool and Accu-Edge inspection systems.

​​​​​​​"Before purchasing a Vicivision, we had to use a variety of different machines," explained a representative for Didimo Zanetti, a leader in the production of gears, as he opens the doors of the workshop and details how quality control worked before investing in an optical measuring machine.

Makrolite 4K is flexible, easy to use, and provides high definition video images with a wide dynamic range and up to 330x magnification. It delivers both versatility and high performance in applications such as production, lab research, R&D, micro assembly, quality control, inbound/outbound product checking, dissection and re-work.

At the U.S. transmission plant of a global automotive manufacturing group, component inspection times have been reduced by half or more by upgrading the company's coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) to incorporate 5-axis scanning technology in addition to touch probing.

When looking at the place of metrology in the "Fourth Industrial Revolution," it is interesting to ponder whether Industry 4.0 is being driven by developments in metrology or metrology developments are being driven by Industry 4.0.

Counterfeiting is a challenging problem for bearing manufacturers. Laser marking is one way to overcome this problem.

To ensure the surfaces on the gears are optimized, it is essential to use metrology tools to analyze, understand, and characterize.

ZEISS DeepRecon Pro and ZEISS PhaseEvolve modules increase throughput by up to 10x while producing better than ever image quality.

The TMX 5010 joins the TMX 6410 and 7510 cameras as the entry point to the TMX family. Benefits include a higher RAM capacity up to 512 gigabytes (GB), a higher partition offering of 511 segments, standard 10Gb Ethernet with a rugged RJ45 port, and the ability to upgrade to higher throughput models at a later date.
