Automated Precision Inc.
API METROLOGY SERVICES can help with every step in the manufacturing process. We can scan a prototype part to create a model for mass production, inspect the first pieces off the production line to ensure accuracy, do spot checks throughout the manufacturing process to maintain repeatability, reverse engineer old parts to return them to production, and calibrate machine tools to check for inaccuracies and help compensate for their errors.

Dynamic 9D Ladar
DYNAMIC 9D LADAR provides micron-level resolution while eliminating issues associated with surface reflectivity, slow data acquisition speeds, limited accuracies, restrictive incident angles, and susceptibility to production environment noise.Laser Radar systems require large sample averaging to obtain reasonable accuracy, effectively slowing data rates. API’s OFCI technology uses fast laser chirping to generate a wide spectrum for optical interference. The interference signal detected yields 100x higher sensitivity than Laser Radar.
