In the glass manufacturing industry, accuracy and reliability in measurement are extremely important. The unevenness of glass surfaces and the complexity of product structures pose significant challenges

In electric vehicles, the battery pack is typically installed within the frame or structure of the vehicle. This is crucial because they need to fit within the dimensions to accommodate dozens of small battery cells. Checking for flatness is a critical step because the battery cells must fit precisely into the casing to ensure a tight seal.

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.
