Mitutoyo’s MeasurLink® Quality Management Software Streamlines Data Management Process

Mitutoyo’s MeasurLink® Quality Management Software Streamlines Data Management Process

System saves time, money and increases productivity in brake automotive manufacturing industry

Business Challenge: 

In the automotive industry, disc brake calipers and ABS/Traction control systems are usually manufactured in large quantities, and in the past, it has been nearly impossible to capture data in real time. Real time data provides a streamlined process of looking at the data that is very intuitive to quality engineering and can be interpreted in a more fluid way.  

Mitutoyo America Corporation’s CMM’s, using MCOSMOS and GEOMeasure software, can capture manufacturing data; however, a data management software system is a more efficient way to manage a larger volume of data.  Operators could use CMM reports to ensure the parts were in spec, but the operators needed to...

Providing Precision to Power Aerospace Engines

Over recent years, a wide range of advanced machine tools have been developed to help satisfy global aerospace manufacturing industry’s requirement to produce parts faster than ever before. Although these innovative machines manufacture complex components within much faster cycle times, often increased production levels create bottlenecks in inspection departments. To help avoid these hold-ups, increasingly progressive aerospace manufacturers are including state-of-the-art inspection technology in their investment plans. Having selected the most appropriate machine tools to enable the efficient production of blisks and IBRs (aero-engine components consisting of a rotor disk and blades), the management of ITP Engines Ltd. recognized the need to invest in advanced quality control equipment. The proposed inspection system needed to be capable of accommodating the demanding dimensional tolerances of the company’s blisks and IBRs, and also have the required high-speed, high-accuracy scanning...
