OGS has introduced the new QVI ZONE3 CAD-based metrology software, for use on its SmartScope® family of multisensor dimensional measurement systems in Southeast Asia. QVI ZONE3 is the next-generation metrology software that offers full 3D CAD-based programming.

From 26 -30 October 2015, OGS staff and agents were given intensive training on the new QVI ZONE3 metrology software. ZONE3 is a powerful, CAD-enabled, 3D metrology software application. With it, you can use a combination of the latest optical, laser, and touch probe technologies to measure parts quickly and accurately.

Semiconductor manufacturers now look for multisensor measuring machines that combine optical, laser and tactile sensors in a single system, than using multiple specialized measuring systems. This allow them to measure parts more completely, with higher certainty and in less time. Also added versatility means lower capital expense and operating costs.

ShapeGrabber is a leading provider of 3D laser scanners that are particularly valuable for measuring and inspecting complex-shaped parts.The scanners are used for QC in automotive, aerospace, medical and other industrial markets to help manufacturers.

One major trend is the wider adoption of 3D scanning technology for inspection and quality control as opposed to the usual markets of reverse engineering and modelling. The traditional scanner from a few years ago was difficult to use. It was designed by an engineer to do an engineer's job.

One of the world's first video coordinate measuring machine (CMM) was introduced by VIEW Engineering way back in 1976. In 2005, VIEW Engineering acquired Micro-Metric to form VIEW Micro-Metrology, a division within Quality Vision International Inc.(QVI).

Dr Guglielmo Raho, an Italian gauge industry veteran with an impressive list of patents to his name spoke about how Itaca changed the CMM industry. Now President of the Itaca division at QVI, Guglielmo gives his insights into the metrology needs of manufacturers.

OGP's SmartScope technology has evolved to incorporate a sophisticated array of sensors. Kenneth Sheehan, Product Manager, New Development, OGP was in Singapore recently and tells us more about its newest ZONE3 software, set to boost the performance of SmartScope multisensor systems.

At one time, the internet appeared to offer all organisations a simple proposition: email connectivity and a clickable presence in the form of a website. Today, web presence has rapidly evolved with interactive content and the ability to deliver transactional experiences – or e-commerce. Migrating services online helps business reduce costs...

The Precision Engineering (PE) industry is an important pillar of Singapore's manufacturing sector contributing about 9 percent of manufacturing output. It also provides crucial support to key industries such as electronics, aerospace, medtech. Optical Gaging Singapore is a key player in the PE industry.

Fresh off as a recipient of Top 100 Singapore Excellence Award 2011/2012, OGP continues to blaze its trail through 2013. Under the leadership of OGP President,  Stephen Flynn and Optical Gaging Singapore ( OGS) General Manager Kelly Ho, OGP maintains its robust presence in the Far East and the Middle East, driving zero product defects through metrology solutions.

Optical Gaging Singapore received the Singapore Excellence Award 2011/2012, a prestigious accolade which recognizes the entrepreneurial elite in Singapore. The award represents the success of OGS in communicating the values of product quality and productivity to industry.

Starting September 2012, ten OGSians (OGS staff) will begin their journey of a one-year Graduate Diploma course in Precision Measurement & Characterization (PMC) organized by the Workforce Development Agency (WDA) with the Singapore Institute of Manufacturing (SIMTech).

This year's IMTS 2012 @ Chicago is different! QVI member companies (OGP, VIEW, RAM, CCP) showcase their technologies under one roof on a single 4000 sq ft floor space instead of across separate booths.
