Hexagon works with motorcycle manufacturers
Hexagon's Manufacturing Intelligence division and Arch Motorcycle, a manufacturer of high-performance motorcycles, have entered into a partnership.
The aim of the collaboration is to make it easier for Arch to control quality during development and production and thus help customers have special driving experiences. Arch combines craftsmanship and engineering with precision technologies to maximize the performance potential of its motorcycles.
By completely digitalizing quality processes with modern measurement technology throughout development and production, the partnership supports the motorcycle manufacturer in further implementing its high quality requirements. Hexagon's equipment used by the manufacturing team includes an easy-to-use mobile measuring arm (Absolute Arm) with the state-of-the-art AS1 laser scanner, which allows even inexperienced users to enter measurements directly into the associated software.
The 3D laser scanner provides a guided workflow to help users visualize 3D models and guide them in successfully capturing key features and surface measurements. In combination with tightly integrated measurement software, the laser scanner also enables easy scanning of large components and parts for reverse engineering measurement technology.
