Large-scale Parts Assembly Management
Measure large parts with ease right on the assembly floor.
Bring precision measurement tools to your large-scale parts for accurate alignment during assembly. FARO 3D measurement and projection solutions make it possible.
Precise and Fast Large-scale Assembly Technologies
Assembling large parts for airplanes, boats, military equipment, the energy industry and other applications can be challenging. Identifying part errors and alignment issues early in the assembly process is critical for reducing waste and costs. Likewise, moving these parts to a fixed coordinate measuring machine (CMM) can present a further stumbling block. Portable FARO Vantage Laser Trackers and Tracer Laser Projectors eliminate this quality-control bottleneck by optimizing workflow productivity for large-scale applications, including assembly alignment, part and assembly inspection, machine installation and alignment, and reverse engineering.
