• Leveled our granite surface inspection table using a real time data watch window in a third the time it took using optical level.  The watch window made the job a one-man operation.
  
• Inspected large gearbox bores for parallelism and distortion after the box sustained a major crash.  The box was inspected in place, which saved the cost of removing, sending to shop, and setting up on a machine tool for inspection.
  
• Installed a custom filament-winding machine.  The tracker was used to position surfaces and locate components accurately.
  
• Used the data collected by the Tracker to reverse engineer a high-speed centrifugal compressor impeller.  Down loaded data to Unigraphics version CAD system to develop CNC-machining programs

Actual point data from existing part              CAD model from point data     

• Inspect condition and profile of 20' Babbitt mill bearing on 24' V.T.L., for match machining the mating surface to existing bearing profile.
  
• Oriented field machining boring bar to a gear box output shaft located 30 feet from area requiring machining, which needed to be in line.
  
• Measured forward and aft rocket motor adapter rings after machining to verify true position, surface flatness and feature dimensions.
  
• Check alignment and shell condition of ball/rod mills and rotary kilns and dryers while in operation to determine action necessary to correct problems.
  
• Align steam barrel and internal components in Delaval steam turbine, inspect case condition for bearing and seal alignments, and splitline flatness.
