January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive
In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, learn about the latest advancements in design for additive manufacturing, including new software tools, additive in automotive, custom medical devices, and more.
GKS Inspection Services (Plymouth, MI) has purchased a fourth FARO Platinum portable-CMM articulated arm to once again increase the capacity of its Detroit-area dimensional inspection services. This is the second new FARO arm in less than six months, allowing the company, which is a division of Laser Design Inc. (Minneapolis, MN), to answer the demand for portable on-site scanning, inspection, and reverse engineering services.
The new 12-foot arm is fully integrated with both a touch probe and a Laser Design 3D laser scanner. GKS' system configuration includes FARO's CAM2 measurement software and contact probes, along with a Laser Design SLP-330 laser scanner and a laptop PC loaded with Geomagic software. Also, by switching in the SLP-2000 high-speed laser probe with an 8 in.-long (200mm) laser line and dual CMOS receptors, GKS can scan even larger parts at a customer site.
