HIWE SQS Laser Tracker Measurement Services & Solutions
Alignment
Machine and roller alignment is one of the most common and critical components of maintenance and quality control within a production shop. API offers a range of tools and services to align your parts to within tens of micrometers over distances greater than 50 meters.
Inspection
HAPI offers portable, large volume coordinate measurement machines (CMM) to complete complex inspection and quality-control tasks across many industries. API laser trackers and non-contact scanners are trusted for quality checks in aerospace, automotive and other industries where precision is paramount.
Calibration
Timely and accurate machine calibrations are critical to manufacture a quality product. Without the proper tools, production costs can skyrocket due to scrap, re-work, and overtime. API offers sophisticated and easy-to-use instruments and services that can calibrate complex machine movement. API also offers on-site calibration services by a team of trained engineers with thousands of hours of experience.
Jig & Fixture
Laser trackers have been used for the construction and inspection of manufacturing tools for over 25 years. During that time laser trackers have become the premier tool for these tasks replacing older, more cumbersome optical technologies such as theodolites and photogrammetry. API’s laser trackers are used for a range of jobs that require the precise alignment of critical features such as holes, edges, and pins.
