The test and measurement industry is a fast-growing market, As products are manufactured, test and measurement equipment is used to ensure that they will perform as required. This is an essential step in guaranteeing the safety, quality, health compliance, and productivity of all manufactured products.
When building precision lab equipment and testing equipment, one of the key challenges is to create parts that provide highly accurate readings and measurements. However, as manufactured components become more complex, and applications become more demanding, older testing tools may not provide good measurements based on the component’s intended application. The manufacturing of precision testing equipment requires the use of the latest technologies and processes so that the final product can be easily verified to meeting industry standards (ISO, FDA, etc).
Precision machined and precision turned components offer benefits to address these main issues. These parts are created with tight tolerances, high repeatability, and complex features. They can also be made from various materials and can undergo finishing techniques to provide longer wear in harsh environments. Some finishing services include electroplating, grinding, heat treating, and laser engraving.
