In the aerospace industry, where accuracy and efficiency are vital, optimizing the measurement process is key to maintaining a competitive edge. Meyer Tool, a leading manufacturer of aerospace engine components in Cincinnati, Ohio, found a breakthrough solution with Renishaw’s Equator™ comparison measurement system. This solution not only effectively replaces traditional rigid measurement equipment, but also delivers significant cost and productivity benefits.
In the context of the manufacturing industry moving strongly into the Industry 4.0 era, automating processes to improve productivity and ensure quality is a key factor. At a recent major tech event, V-Proud introduced a groundbreaking solution: the SAS Automatic 3D Scanning System. This is not just a typical measurement device but a comprehensive system that delivers fully automated, precise, and efficient quality inspection capabilities.
The Equator–X™ 500 is a groundbreaking measurement system from Renishaw, specifically designed to provide the latest advanced measurement solutions for on-the-floor process control. With its ability to operate as two systems in one, this device offers a flexible and effective solution for manufacturers.
To learn about the application story Check the groove inside the borehole, let's go with V-Proud to find out in detail through this article.
Manufacturing a piston or an engine component often involves awkward geometric features, such as inner groves inside a bore or cavity.

Because they are part of a high tolerance system, the inner groove must still be gauged with a precise instrument. But non- contact sensors or pencil probes are impractical and space is limited.
Solartron specialty sensors such as Block Gauges provide the ability to check awkward dimensions accurately and repeatably, and with a lower cost than non contact offerings.

Block Gauges have the probe mounted on the side of the base, and is connected to a sliding top piece with robust, precision linear bearings. A top tool, tip holder, and tip can then be used to measure up inside a bore. With the optional pneumatic cylinder, the tip can then shuffle into a groove, and a measurement is taken.

Use pneumatic cylinders to push tips in
The Solartron Orbit® 3 Digital Measurement System, in conjunction with Solartron’s wide range of transducers, including both contact (gauging probes) and non-contact linear measuring transducers, specialist transducers and third party interfaces, provides a limitless set of measuring system solutions, with numerous different interfaces to computers and PLC’s, making Orbit® 3 completely flexible.
