Accuracy and speed

Metrology equipment performs with perfect accuracy and at breakneck speed. Touch probes, lasers, and advanced optics can be used in machines like OGP's Vantage range to completely measure anything that is presented to them. The machine's sensors are moved with elegance and accuracy by liquid-cooled, servo-driven motor drives, allowing the machine to function with even greater precision.

Reliability

Metrology equipment may be relied on to operate autonomously and without the requirement for picky operator input. CAD models are used by intuitive software to help visualize the thing to be measured, automatically mapping measurement locations and picking the best and most suitable sensors for the task.

Falcon geomatics machines are intelligent, which means that an operator may set them to measure and walk away, knowing that when they return in a few minutes, they will have a thorough readout of every feature of the part.

Repeatability

This is one of the main advantages of competent metrology lab equipment: it collects everything and does so in a repeatable manner. Leaving aside the comparison of numerous individuals discussed above, even the same single metrologist may provide various responses to the same object across measurements. Human error is unavoidable, but its consequences do not have to be. Every time a metrology machine measures the same part in the same way and with the same accuracy.

Increased Throughput

In a manufacturing setting, the goal of metrology equipment is not only to measure parts and record the resulting values. Knowing that items are manufactured within tolerance and to specification provides manufacturers with confidence in quality assurance. Consistent outcomes lead to a better firm reputation, which leads to repeat business and higher success in a competitive market.

Data can be collected up to three times faster using our technology than with a typical coordinate measuring unit. Multiple parts can be measured simultaneously with huge bed sizes, enabling a level of productivity that would take a team of humans to equal - all-in-one networked equipment.
