About us

We improve manufacturing by giving our customers the ability to measure every component in real-time. Sample controls can only indicate that there is a problem in production. 100% inspection will allow you to diagnose the problem and target the underlying issue. Data is the key to Zero Defect Manufacturing and Industry 4.0.
