A Formula 1 team is really an engineering company that manufactures race cars. What does risk management look like when the end user is a human being strapped inside a car traveling at nearly 200 mph? Matt Gallagher, Formula 1 veteran, discusses what "quality" means in the racing industry.
We live in a world where a great product and a great service are no longer enough. To maintain a customer-centered focus, Kiran Dhanuka, chief customer officer at MasterControl, explains why you should always act as if the customer is in the room, whether they are physically there or not.
From picking a theme, to picking the right keynote speakers, to soliciting suggestions from attendees, a lot goes into a well-planned and well-executed user conference. Jon Beckstrand, CEO of MasterControl reveals his company's secrets to Quality Digest CEO, Jeff Dewar.
In this entry of Quality Digest Presents we see Evident Scientific's latest technology in software for Industrial Microscopes, PRECiV Image Analysis Software coupled with DSX1000 Digital Microscope.
Join Dirk Dusharme and Evident's presenter, Rob Bellinger (Product Applications Manager, Industrial Microscopy) as they look at the features of PRECiV and the DSX1000
In this entry of Quality Digest Presents we check out Evident Scientific's latest technology in Industrial Microscopes, the CIX100 with their Olympus Cleanliness Inspector software. Join Dirk Dusharme and Evident's presenter, Rob Bellinger (Product Applications Manager, Industrial Microscopy) as they look the CIX1000's ability to quickly acquire, process, and document technical cleanliness inspection data to comply with company and international standards.
GelSight Max allows users to capture high resolution 2D images and 3D digital surface maps in milliseconds. When mounted to a Hexagon Absolute Arm, the Gelsight Max can perform submicron profile and surface roughness, as well as measurement of surface features, such as scratches and pitting, down to the submicron level, and tie the location of those measurements back to a CAD model of the part being measured. GelSight is also a winner in Hexagon's Sixth Sense program.
Ever wondered how racing giants like Hendrick Motorsports remain at the forefront of motorsports? Dive beneath the hood of their success and you'll find it's rooted in the transformative power of metrology. Metrology has taken a top position in reshaping racing, proving that precision can indeed supercharge on-track performance.
In this video, we look at the revolutionary Absolute Scanner AS1-XL laser scanner, purpose-built to tackle the challenge of scanning large pieces with unparalleled efficiency and speed. The AS1-XL compliments the popular Absolute Scanner AS1. Both scanners are cross-platform scanners meaning they can be used with Hexagon’s Absolute Arm 7-Axis, Absolute Tracker AT960, or shared between the two.
This cutting-edge 3D laser scanner is a game-changer, capable of scanning expansive volumes in a mere blink. Learn how the marriage of speed and precision granted by the AS1-XL is accelerating scanning processes and enabling quicker engineering advancements. Strap in for a high-octane exploration of the technology driving the champions of the racetrack!
We interviewed Jamie Fernandez, chief product officer for ETQ, and John Taylor, chief technology officer at ETQ, about the connection between quality management system software and autonomous metrology. How does integrating the two play into predictive quality and closed-loop manufacturing?

In this interview with Gary Peacock, general manager for metrology software at Hexagon's Manufacturing Intelligence division, we learn the distinction between autonomous vs automatic metrology and how AI ties into that. We also discuss the role of digital twins and other technology, such as Hexagon's Nexus platform. And finally, how do we handle the transfer of certain tasks from humans to automation? What roll do people and their inherent skills play in all of this?
This episode was filmed at the HxGN LIVE conference in Las Vegas.
At last year's Masters Summit hosted by MasterControl, Quality Digest CEO Jeff Dewar asked attendees about their jobs. Since most were quality professionals, he cast a wide net and simply asked what they loved and hated about what they do.
Matt Lowe, chief strategy officer at MasterControl, talks about teamwork, how QMS software companies can compete in a saturated market, and what skills are needed for future quality professionals.
Quality Digest CEO Jeff Dewar talks with Jon Beckstrand, CEO of MasterControl, about corporate culture and the value of failure.
IT and quality are usually kept separate in the corporate world—or considered two different beasts. But in his interview with Shelly LaPointe, head of Thermo Fisher’s IT department, Quality Digest CEO Jeff Dewar discovers a different relationship emerging. One of multiple interviews conducted during Master Control’s Masters Summit, which boasted approximately 1,000 attendees and multiple speakers within the manufacturing and tech industries, Dewar's conversation with LaPointe reveals insights into how IT professionals and quality management can work together to create a more cohesive and skillful workforce.
At IMTS in Chicago this year we looked at measurement solutions from Nikon, including a measuring microscope, optical comparator, stereo microscope with high-definition 24MP camera, and the NEXIV video measuring system.
Digital Sight 10 Microscopy Camera
What is the relationship between the two organizations. What is the "grand vision" for creating synergy between the two and how this has affected membership and certifications of quality professionals.
We talk with the ASQE board about what the organization is and what it intends to accomplish. Also what are the benefits for organizations that join? In addition, what is ASQE's role in helping organizations with addressing risk and ISO QMS standards?
At IMTS in Chicago we looked at the Datasure 4.0 Wireless Data Collection System, new electronic digital gages, AVR 300 Vertical Benchtop Inspection System, FMS-5000-L2 Plus Force Measurement System, Tru-Stone granite surface plates, specialty gages, and more.
In this interview with ASQE CEO Jim Templin, we learn what exactly is the ASQE, how it interfaces with ASQ, and affects its members. And of course, why was ASQE created in the first place?
At Coast Aerospace in Southern California, we measure a large aerospace tool with a Leica Absolute Tracker AT500 Probing System, coupled with Hexagon's Inspire metrology software.
Jonathan Dove of Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence demonstrates the TEMPO automated part loading system, a cost-effective solution that increases the throughput of your coordinate measuring machine and maximizes operational capacity.
We talk to Rob Bellinger of Evident (formerly Olympus) about the SZX-AR1 Augmented Reality Microscope System. The AR1 microscope system enables you to overlay text and digital images over your microscope's field of view, making it easy to follow directions, read notes, and even watch videos without removing your eyes from the eyepieces.
The AR1 module works with Olympus SZX stereo microscopes, turning them into augmented reality tools that improve the speed and efficiency of your microscope-based manufacturing tasks and training.
In this Tech Corner from the HxGN LIVE show in Las Vegas, François Mainguy, president and CEO of PRAGMA, demonstrates its PragmaRoll 64 scanning ultrasonic probe mounted to a Hexagon Absolute Arm.
We talk to Ann Jordan about where the quality profession is heading, ASQ membership, and the drop in ISO 9001 certifications.
