Machine Shop Quality Assurance with CMM Inspection
Ä¢¹½tv³ÉÄê°æ’s large-scale Coordinate-Measuring Machines (CMMs) verify the machined parts meet their design specifications. Furthermore, customers require tight tolerances and CMM inspection gives the measurement needed to pass or fail the part.

- Coord3 Universal
- Travel Size: 118 in. x 59 in. x 58 in.
- Coord3 Ares NT
- Travel Size: 47 in. x 26 in. x 26 in.
In-House Manufacturing: From Start to Finish
Extensive manufacturing capabilities allow the Ä¢¹½tv³ÉÄê°æ manufacturing process to be done nearly entirely in-house. To illustrate below, Ä¢¹½tv³ÉÄê°æ completes nearly all the manufacturing steps without the need to outsource:
- Design – Ä¢¹½tv³ÉÄê°æ’s engineers work closely with the customer through multiple revisions until they achieve the optimal design.
- Component machining – Ä¢¹½tv³ÉÄê°æ’s machine shop precision machines the component parts such as tops, middles, as well as bottom plates.
- CMM Inspection – after machining, the quality assurance department thoroughly inspects the components on CMM machines for conformance.
- Cleaning & assembly – technicians clean as well as assemble the components to prepare for vacuum brazing or diffusion bonding.
- Vacuum brazing or diffusion bonding – technicians load the assembly into a vacuum furnace or diffusion bonder and run the assembly at a specific temperature as well as force profile.
- Leak Testing – technicians perform leak checking to verify a perfect join.
- Heat Treating – the assembly goes to heat treating in-house or sent outside if it requires certain specifications.
- Final Machining – the machine shop machines the assembly into its final shape.
- CMM Inspection – if necessary and after machining, the quality assurance department thoroughly inspects the assembly on CMM machines for conformance.
- Coating and/or Plating – coating and/or plating is done outside of Ä¢¹½tv³ÉÄê°æ and the final part is sent to a reliable coating supplier to perform services such as chemical film coating or gold plating.
- Final Assembly – technicians install the final components such as heli-coils into the final part.
- Final Testing – technicians perform bubble and/or leak testing to verify the final part is leak proof.
- Last Inspection – the quality assurance department inspects as well as certifies the final part.
