Reducing Warranty Claims Through Quality Control for Heavy Equipment Manufacturers

Investing in quality control inevitably results in better-quality products that are less likely to malfunction or break down. This enables heavy equipment manufacturers to reduce the costs associated with warranty claims, repairing or replacing products, and handling customer complaints.

The Invaluable Role of Traceable Data in Documenting Aircraft Dents

Poorly documented dents can lead to more significant problems, potentially compromising the aircraft’s structural integrity or performance. They can trap moisture and lead to corrosion. Their impact on the structure can also affect the aircraft’s aerodynamic performance.

Seeds of innovation: How Amazone reaps the benefits with Creaform's MetraSCAN 3D

Thanks to the MetraSCAN 3D, Amazone can completely scan assemblies to more proactively act to deviations and welding distortions, ensuring more comprehensive dimensional checks.

The Difference Between Stated Accuracy and Accredited Accuracy

Stated accuracy refers to the accuracy that a manufacturer claims, while accredited accuracy is an objective measurement of a product’s true accuracy.

Your Risk-Based Assessment Model is Only as Accurate as Your Data

As an asset owner, would you rather have three data you are 100% confident in or a thousand points you cannot trust? This question pertains to the integrity assessment of plants, refineries, or pipelines, where thickness loss measurements are collected every one to two years.

Navigating the Shift to Automated Manufacturing with 3D Scanning

Explore how manufacturers can overcome the challenges of automation complexity, cost misconceptions, and skill gaps with strategic 3D scanning solutions.

Electrifying an Aircraft Using 3D Scanning and Augmented Reality

The aeronautics industry is without question a dynamic sector of activity where progress takes place at breakneck pace and where the players in the field have to deal with remarkable technological advances that follow each other at increasingly shorter intervals.

Use of 3D scanner increases efficiency and reduces labor and material costs

Management and customers demand realistic implementation of individual welding processes at low costs. These costs are often caused by inefficient work processes, such as reworking due to excess or insufficient use of materials, or customer complaints.
