Carfulan and OGP
recently demonstrated their multi-sensor
metrology products at MACH 2024 in Birmingham
SENSORY
ulti-sensor metrology is key for many process industry sectors, particularly those in the
aerospace, automotive and medical equipment verticals since their manufactured parts typically need to be measured to ensure they meet the original design intent. Industrial metrology equipment
can also improve the traceability of quality process as well as adherence to industrial standards.
WHAT IS MULTI- SENSOR METROLOGY This technology integrates and uses
multiple sensors to collect the critical dimensions and complex properties of a component part in a single program. Each sensor is designed to capture specifi c aspects of the feature being measured and these measurements allow for a comprehensive and accurate assessment and reporting

New sensor equipment promises to increase effi ciency for plant operators
related to the component. Multi-sensor metrology uses a
variety of contact and non-contact sensors to achieve the most detailed and accurate measurements of a component. Non-contact sensors (optics and
lasers) measure the component’s linear dimensions and 3D profi les to capture and analyse data. Contact sensors (also known as
touch probes) physically touch the object in order to measure features that optical and non-contact sensors may not be able to see (these might be internal features or side profi les on volumetric parts). Multi-system measurement
specialist OGP UK, owned by the Carfulan group and one of the largest manufacturers of this type of technology, recently launched a hat trick of new products in this space - the Fusion 400, the Shapegrabber Ai620 and the E-Series E7, a
The Fusion 400 has been designed for precision in high-volume production environments
spokesperson for the company says that they provide “unprecedented levels of accuracy.”
THE FUSION 400 This product is a multi-sensor
measurement system with a 400 x 300 x 250mm measuring range, designed for precision in high-volume production environments.
