Microtech Expands Mechanical Measurement Capabilities
9.18.2014
Microtech, Inc. has acquired a second 9 foot (2.7 m) FARO "Edge" 7 Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) multi axis measurement arm. Utilizing the lazer scan capabilities of this unit Microtech is able to make measurements on the most delicate (thin-walled ultra-light) flight waveguide assemblies. They are the most advanced, state-of-the-art FaroArm® ever introduced. As the industry leader, FARO and Microtech once again raises the bar in portable measurement with the revolutionary Edge - and Microtech, Inc. has two of these machines. There is no comparable alternative product for the shop floor.
The "Edge" is a portable measurement arm that allows Microtech to easily verify our product quality by performing inspections, tool certifications, CAD-to-part analysis, and reverse engineering.
The all-new Edge is the first-ever smart measurement arm. With a built-in touchscreen and on-board operating system, it becomes your personal measurement assistant. With its stand-alone basic measurement capability, the FARO Edge takes portable metrology to the next level.
Combined with the laser Probe, the thinnest wall waveguides can be measured without deflecting the tubing, giving you a very accurate measurement and comprehensive reporting.
