Large volume metrology applications

    Project: EU project

    Project Details

    Description

    Improving large-scale dimensional measurements for manufacturing.

    Ability to measure size, location, orientation and shape of large objects is a critical requirement in many high value industries.
        
    Project delivers a range of improved, reliable and accurate measuring systems for operation as large volume metrology tools.
            
    VTT MIKES develops advanced methods for tracking moveable or static objects and a spectroscopic method to measure effective temperature along an optical path up to 50 m in industrial conditions.
