What I can do for your programme

Four ways to work together, from a single inspection problem to a complete measurement system.

Metrology process design and review

Measurement plans, GD&T interpretation, and validation and verification checks, so your inspection results are traceable and hold up at audit.

Large-volume measurement

Laser tracker set-up, jig and fixture verification, and Polyworks and Spatial Analyzer workflows for large aerostructures and engine components.

Robot–metrology integration

Metrology-guided robot positioning and assembly, from a feasibility study through to a production-ready system.

Inspection automation and training

Polyworks automation scripts that take the repetition out of inspection, plus the training and work instructions your team needs to run them.

How an engagement works

1. Discovery call

A short, no-obligation conversation about the part, the process and the problem.

2. Assessment

A review of your current measurement process, data and constraints, followed by a written summary of options.

3. Delivery

Remote or on-site work (scripts, measurement plans, trials or integration), with regular check-ins.

4. Handover

Documentation, training and results your quality team can audit.

Built on industrial research and production work

Doctoral research in metrology for wing assembly, Cranfield University · MSc Aerospace Manufacturing, Cranfield University · BEng Aeronautical Engineering, City University London

What you get

Less rework

Fit-up problems caught at the measurement stage, before they reach final assembly.

Shorter inspection cycles

Scripted, repeatable routines replace manual steps.

Audit-ready data

Traceable, documented results your quality team can stand behind.

Robots that hit their targets

Metrology feedback that closes the gap between programmed and actual position.

Evidence before investment

Technologies trialled against your actual parts before you commit budget.

Knowledge that stays with you

Training and documentation, so your team isn't dependent on a consultant.

Have a measurement problem on your line?

Tell me about the part, the process and where it's going wrong. I'll come back to you with an honest view on whether I can help.
