Alignment & Calibration Guide

This guide will show production managers how to dramatically cut alignment and calibration errors in the assembly process while reducing rework, waste and scrap — before first article inspection.

Download to learn:
  • How to identify machine alignment and calibration errors farther upstream in the manufacturing process, faster than what could be achieved with manual measurements alone.
  • Why manufacturers, including aerospace, automotive, machine shop and industrial equipment manufacturers, and third party providers, stand to benefit from 3D tech.
  • The step-by-step process production managers should employ when looking for solutions to bring more accuracy to their machinery and measurement.

Piper has used FARO’s 6DoF probe for the past year, reducing the time it takes to align into large assembly fixtures by 60-70% in some cases, all while maintaining extremely tight tolerances. Additionally, the probe has allowed us to easily and accurately measure complicated parts and features that were otherwise un-measurable using conventional measuring equipment.
