Measurement Uncertainty 101: Case Studies
The article probes the experts’ thoughts on recent developments in the quality / manufacturing field especially those related to robotics and automation.
Case Studies
See how Pratt & Whitney measuring instruments are helping customers in a variety of industries improve quality, increase productivity, and realize a real return on investment.
Real Evidence. Proven Solutions.
Harmonic Drives ROI
The Pratt and Whitney Labmaster Universal has helped Harmonic Drive achieve the high precision they need in their Metrology Lab. Most calibrations are now performed in house, which saves about $24,000 per year.
NASA – Roller Bearings to Millionths
This friction and wear research lab uses a Pratt & Whitney Labmaster to measure several critical precision bearings from 12 mm bore, 2000 rpm bearings used in the water recycling system of the International Space Station to 90 mm bore, 30,000 rpm turbopump bearings used on the Space Shuttle’s rocket engines.
Cost Savings at Delta Airlines
The Pratt and Whitney Labmaster Universal has dramatically increased the speed of Delta’s Calibration Laboratory. Now the laboratory calibrates more than 500 ring and plug gages, thread gages, pin sets, and gage block sets each year.
Pratt & Whitney’s Solution for Measuring Bearings
The lead tribology Metrologist of one NASA laboratory stated “The radial internal clearance and axial internal clearance kits for the Labmaster Universal will help further establish us as a very capable bearing research lab”.
