3D Metrology: Precision Measurement for the Digital Age
3D Metrology refers to the science and technology of measuring objects in three dimensions with high precision. It plays a critical role in ensuring accuracy, quality, and consistency across industries such as manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, electronics, and healthcare. By capturing detailed geometric data, 3D metrology enables better design validation, process optimization, and product performance.
How It Works:3D metrology systems use advanced sensors and technologies—such as laser scanners, structured light, coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), and optical profilers—to capture the exact shape and dimensions of an object. The collected data creates a digital 3D model, which can be analyzed for deviations from design specifications or used for reverse engineering.
