Measurement Tool Spotlight: Portable Measuring Arms
With close to 35 years in the field of industrial precision measurement and alignment, the engineering team at OASIS has worked with, tested, researched, and owned almost every precision measurement instrument available - from machinist levels, pi tapes and trammels...
Laser Alignment, Alignment Lasers or Aligning Lasers – What’s the Difference?
Here at OASIS, we often receive requests for “laser alignment” services. However, this term can apply to several similar, but distinct solutions. In this post, we provide a brief overview of the various tools and technologies that can fall under the category of laser...
Using 3D Metrology Solutions for Layout Work Saves Time and Money
A common practice in millwrighting is to lay a hole or layout template over a part - or an area - to mark the location of new holes. Imagine a virtual template that has no bounds and could be adapted to almost any surface or area. Imagine too, that you don’t have to...
3D Metrology Solutions for Inspecting Crane Rails
We seldom think of overhead or gantry cranes when we think of critical components. However, in many industries the crane is an intrinsic part of the process. If a crane is out of commission, the entire process is in jeopardy and can be forced to shut down. Many...
Manufacturing Facilities Succeed with 3D Metrology Services
In a previous post, we provided case study summaries from several of our customers in the paper and packaging industries. In this post, we provide a recap of successful projects where, using a laser tracker, OASIS industrial metrology engineers exceeded customer...
Instrument Calibration Ensures Quality Measurements
In a previous post, Repeatability in Measurement - Why is it Important?, we touched on the importance of calibrating precision measurement instruments. In this post we delve deeper into instrument calibration and why regularly calibrating measurement tooling is...
Mining Industry Benefits from 3D Metrology Services
Mining operations are challenging environments for most in the precision measurement field. The older, more traditional mechanical methods are limited in the volume that they can cover and depend heavily upon the skill level of the operator. Innovative and...
Laser Trackers Ideal for Wire Strander Alignment
Using Laser Trackers for Quick and Accurate Wire Strander Alignment In order to remain competitive, wire rope and cable manufacturers must keep their wire stranders - whether tubular, rigid or planetary – running at maximum production levels with minimal surges in...
OASIS 3D Metrology Services Determines Snow Load Roof Deviations for Cramer Fabrics
It is very important for facilities located in areas that are prone to heavy snow fall, to monitor roof deflection so that action can be implemented quickly and effectively when needed. Manufacturing facilities, schools and municipalities can all benefit from...
3D Metrology Solutions Improve Turbine Efficiency
In this first of a series of posts on 3D metrology solutions for turbo machinery, we provide an overview of metrology applications and some of the benefits of using a service provider equipped with 3D metrology tooling. In upcoming posts we will delve deeper into...
