With growing numbers of new parts entering our machine shop, our traditional inspection process was becoming a bottleneck. We needed a faster, more efficient solution.
Rather than duplicating inspection resources, we’ve invested in new hardware and software that will allow our production team to self-validate first-off parts by accurately comparing the manufactured component against its CAD model.
Our new solution arrives on 1st October.
Key benefits include:
- Faster, easier validation of machined parts throughout production
- No need to create missing dimensions
- Reduced risk of errors from misreading drawings
- Increased productivity and throughput
- Production teams can validate first-offs, reducing the inspection bottleneck
- Allows our Inspection team to focus on final inspection and FAIRs
With CAD increasingly becoming the master reference, this investment will help us make the most of digital data while improving efficiency, accuracy and quality across our machining operation.
