Exact Metrology, a comprehensive 3D metrology service provider and hardware sales company, is excited to announce that a large scale Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) has been installed at their office location in Moline, Illinois. This machine is a high-accuracy CNC coordinate measuring machine that guarantees a maximum permissible error of E0, MPE = (2.5+3L/1000)μm. With this machine, measurement uncertainty remains within one-fifth of the dimension tolerance up to 30.2" (766mm). The higher accuracy specification therefore gives it more than double the effective measuring range in terms of accuracy-guarantee capability. Arrival of the new CMM in Moline In addition, the room the machine sits [...]

Exact Metrology has recently installed a ZEISS METROTOM 6 scout, formally known as a GOM CT, scanner at their facility in Brookfield, Wisconsin. Considered the powerhouse of resolution for CT inspection and metrology, the METROTOM 6 scout digitizes complex parts including the internal geometries at the finest level of detail. Users obtain a complete 3D image for GD&T analysis or nominal-actual comparisons. The metrology CT excels in digitizing small plastic parts. The combination of a 3k detector and 225 kV X-ray enables ZEISS METROTOM 6 scout to provide high contrast, high-resolution measurement results and exceptional sharpness of detail. As a result, even the smallest defects [...]

Exact Metrology is proud to be a part of the restoration of Cincinnati Music Hall’s sandstone ornaments in Cincinnati, Ohio. The restoration includes ten finials atop gables and a sandstone lyre. This project was undertaken by Friends of Music Hall, a volunteer-driven organization whose mission is to preserve, improve, promote and provide education about Cincinnati Music Hall, a National Historic Landmark. Thea Tjepkema, board member and historic preservationist is leading this restoration project on behalf of the Friends of Music Hall. When the architect Samuel Hannaford designed Cincinnati Music Hall in the High Victorian Gothic style, he included a Gothic fleuron, or finial, on each of [...]
