Notice Information

Notice Title

Tracker for the application of large volume metrology in support of flexible manufacturing

Notice Description

Nuclear AMRC is developing a manufacturing demonstration cell. A key feature will be metrology driven manufacturing. To achieve this we require a minimum of two laser trackers working together and integrated/communicating. Nuclear AMRC currently has an AT960 purchased for the bulk additive manufacturing cell. The intention is to utilise the spare capacity of this instrument and purchase a second tracker to support the metrology driven manufacturing research. Having identical instruments supplied by the same manufacturer will ensure compatibility.
