The Equator gauging family includes four highly repeatable, thermally insensitive and programmable inspection devices.

Manufacturers of differential housings use CNC machining and turning centres, involving several operations to create a housing ready for assembly with the gear set.

Manufacturers of brake calipers use high speed CNC machining of near-net shape brake caliper castings over a series of operations. The machined parts are then chemically treated to prevent corrosion before being assembled into brake systems.

Manufacturers of connecting rods use CNC machining technology, involving several operations to create batches of connecting rods for multiple engine types. Typically, a combination of various forms of gauging are used alongside the machine to monitor connecting rod quality and allow engineers to correct the process. However, producers are now looking to reduce regular costly maintenance and high capital investment, and to improve production cycle times.

The API laser tracker provides the evaluation or guidance data for the production equipment in this stage, which provides a strong guarantee for the smooth implementation of each process

Nowadays, design complexities and embellishments are being added to projects as they are developed or as updates after they have already been in production for some time. And, in these cases, reverse engineering can save a lot of time and money in development.
