Metrology

Dimensional control and process verification

Metrology is an essential part of our production process. We carry out dimensional inspection of parts to verify compliance with technical specifications and ensure the stability and repeatability of the manufacturing process.

Dimensional control is integrated from the earliest stages of the project through to series production.

3D measurement

We have a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) for dimensional inspection of forged and machined parts, enabling verification of complex geometries and critical tolerances.

In-process control

We perform dimensional inspections at different manufacturing stages to detect deviations and ensure process stability before series production.

Validation to drawing

Verification of parts against the drawing, sample, or technical specification agreed with the customer.

Technical capabilities and dimensional control

Our metrology area has in-house resources that enable us to verify geometries, critical dimensions, and tolerances, providing reliability and traceability to the production process.

METROLOGY PROCESS

Defined control flow

Dimensional control is carried out through a structured process, integrated with production and quality.

1

Definition of critical dimensions

Identification of the dimensions and functional characteristics to be controlled based on the drawing and project requirements.

2

Dimensional measurement

Measurement of parts using CMM and inspection equipment, ensuring accuracy and repeatability of results.

3

Results analysis

Evaluation of dimensional data to verify tolerance compliance and process stability.

4

Adjustments and monitoring

Adjustment of the production process when necessary and dimensional monitoring during production.

METROLOGY EQUIPMENT

Dimensional inspection and non-destructive testing

Our metrology area has in-house equipment that enables us to carry out dimensional inspections and integrity checks of parts, providing reliability and traceability to the production process.
