The inspection of cast engine and transmission housings through laser scanning yields maximum surface information in the shortest possible time.

Headlights , suspension, wheel rims, bumpers or a plastic air filter box; every automotive component has its own dimensional specifications. Quick inspection checks on the shop floor can be executed using a handheld inspection system.

Precise and reliable solutions for small to mid-sized landing gear, assemblies and components to supersize fuselage and wing parts with revolutionary and innovative non-contact laser technology.

Microscopy is a key tool in the examination of medical devices as it produces high contrast images used to spot small imperfections on the surface of samples.

In the dental segment, it is vital to verify correct positioning and orientation of dentures on prostheses. Geometric information allows the fine-tuning of individual designs before the manufacture process.

High-contrast digital imaging makes it easy to examine surfaces of catheters and surgical blade prototypes for small imperfections using specialized microscopes.

With medical devices failure is not an option. X-ray and CT face no limitations by looking inside key components and critical assemblies to verify dimensions.

Automated non-contact video automatically takes measurements on larger series of complex medical components, keeping pace with demanding production schedules.

A vital aspect of studying natural specimens is the ability to visualize their internal structure. 3D visualizations of the interior structure of fossils, animals and rocks give researchers a ground-breaking insight.

Material researchers are developing bone implants made of titanium foam and CT investigation is able to visualize and quantify the bone in-growth.

Cracks can be identified and analyzed, through many different techniques including inverted microscopy, stereomicroscopy, digital microscopy or X-ray/CT.

Due to the hazardous nature of asbestos there is a need to determine whether asbestos is present in the environment. Light microscopy is able to determine the presence, type and size distribution of asbestos fibres in a sample.

The analysis of rock and minerals is important both academically, for geological and earth sciences, and industrially, in oil and mineral-related industries.

Quality assessment of materials constructed with fibre reinforced polymers is critical and x-ray analysis offers various significant advantages.

Industrial damage and wear through shocks, impact, loadings or repeated stress can cause delamination, a separation of the laminate layers in composites. Samples can be analyzed for faults using stereomicroscopes.

Prepared metallographic samples, are inspected using dedicated inverted microscopes that allow researchers to assess the grain size and phase of metals.

The analysis of grain size is used as a quality control tool to ensure that materials are manufactured to specification and are fit for purpose.

An insight into the development of corrosion pits, stress corrosion cracks and their geometries, can be discovered with CT to improve system design and deduce mathematical formulae.

Quality control is paramount in the metal manufacturing industry as lapses in quality can lead to serious performance and safety impairments.

With injection-moulding batches of plastics components stretching into the millions, identifying when key dimensions are threatening to drift out of tolerance is crucial.
