Modern vehicles are made of thousands of components, and with each one, reliability is key. From consumer-friendly models to performance cars, manufacturers have a duty to ensure the final product meets strict safety standards. In addition, ensuring all parts are manufactured and assembled to specification can reduce the chance of recalls and the cost of warranty replacements – a win-win for both parties. Automotive metrology equipment is a key player in this process. The more accurate the testing and inspection phases, the higher the chance of superior quality manufactured parts. Automotive metrology is also essential in understanding the lifespan of all manner of automotive components. Helping manufacturers to predict when common problems may occur, and advise on when specific parts must be replaced to avoid issues.

Automotive Metrology Equipment for Measurement and Inspection

Our arsenal of measurement and inspection instruments for the automotive industry will ensure consistent quality, while image and data capture technology enables you to prove compliance at every stage of manufacturing. Take advantage of AI automated inspection systems to identify damaged or otherwise non-conforming automotive components and assemblies at speed, resulting in a smoother production process. To support the automatic inspection of components on a conventional production line or true lights-out facility, the Dextera range combines CMM with a cobot – an advancement in automotive technology you can’t afford to miss out on. Optimax also has a full range of automotive borescopes, visual inspection equipment, optical and tactile metrology to fulfil your metrology needs.

The inspection and measurement of in-service parts, prototypes after use and failed components will frequently confirm modes of wear and failure, allowing revision to the design to engineer out such vulnerabilities before they enter full scale production. Invest in your automotive metrology equipment or take advantage of our contract measurement service today and cut costs later down the line.

“Optimax have an extensive product range that was very attractive to us. They took the time to understand my requirements and align a solution that fitted into my manufacturing processes. They were very knowledgeable and friendly, I found the virtual demonstration extremely helpful. The outcome of the project has been very successful and performs above expectations. I would definitely recommend Optimax.”

Adam Kowalcyck, Quality Engineer, Federal Mogul Coventry

“For over 14 years Optimax has been providing us with inspection equipment, service and most importantly expertise. We need suppliers that can go the extra mile in looking specifically at our application and then providing a suitable and sometimes bespoke solution, and this is where Optimax have really made a difference”.  

John Harris, Director , Nevo Developments

“Optimax are a trusted partner! We have been working in partnership with Optimax for several years, to supply us with inspection solutions, service, and onsite calibration to UKAS standards. Their knowledge and expertise is exceptional, they provide honest, independent advice. Optimax are quick to provide options and solutions for our inspection requirements. They work hard to deliver a solution that 100% fits the application rather than just supplying a product. Optimax work with us to ensure we achieve our inspection objectives – they are one of the first companies I turn to.”

Bruce Daggett, Inspection Team Leader, Senior Aerospace Weston

“The Optimax team with their extensive knowledge and expertise, have proven themselves to be the ideal partner for independent, candid advice. They are a company we can trust to support our metrology and visual inspection needs whether we are purchasing equipment or developing specific metrology instruments for our applications. Their experience and methodical attention to detail mean the outcomes we achieve support our testing requirements”. 

Dr Andrew Johnson, Assistant Director, RandA

Service & Calibration

We are calibration experts, UKAS accredited since 2015, our lab is assessed to ISO 17025. We are pioneering in our approach, the first lab in Europe to win approval for ISO10360-7 CMM’s fitted with optical probes aka Vision systems, and more recently Optical shaft measuring. But our engineers don’t just calibrate, they clean, adjust and make minor repairs to your instruments as part of the standard calibration visit, ensuring continued best performance.  If parts or more extensive repairs are needed, we will provide a detailed quote. Field engineers are supported by a dedicated customer care team, keeping track of your calibration assets and letting you know when visits are due. We will always try and provide not only a best commercial package, but also a service as standard to go along with the calibration, from the industry’s friendliest team.
