4 WHAT IS METROLOGY? WHAT IS METROLOGY? Metrology is the science of measurement and it is how we can ensure the accuracy, performance and quality of all parts. We believe that quality drives productivity and should play an active role in the manufacturing process. Not only can metrology save you money by highlighting any problems at the earliest stage, and so avoid expensive re-machining or scrapping, but it gives assurance to your end client and the wider supply chain that you take quality seriously. And when you re using our equipment, there s an added cachet and mark of approval. Formula 1 teams and prestigious OEMs rely on us to enable them to work at speed and with confidence, and we re proud to set a benchmark for international measurement standards.
