Case Study: BMT Aerospace boosts measuring room efficiency with Hexagon’s Leitz CMMS, QUINDOS and I++ Simulator

BMT Aerospace - Customer Case Study

BMT Aerospace, a Belgian producer of precision gears for the aerospace industry, faced a challenge with increased order volume that its old measuring equipment could not handle efficiently. The company needed a more efficient and highly precise solution for its quality control measuring room to perform 100% checks on key components. To address this, they partnered with Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence.

Hexagon implemented a complete solution featuring high-precision Leitz coordinate measuring machines and QUINDOS7 metrology software. This semi-automatic system, which includes pallet loading and the I++ Simulator for offline programming, allowed BMT Aerospace to operate its measuring room 24/7. The solution from Hexagon significantly improved efficiency, provided greater flexibility between machines, and ensured high measuring accuracy for components with micron-range tolerances.
