Optimax will use
MACH 2026, taking place 20-24 April at the NEC Birmingham, to demonstrate a fully integrated approach to metrology, presenting not only individual inspection technologies but a cohesive vision for modern quality control (Hall 18, Stand 630). The company will display a complete portfolio of measurement systems chosen to meet the increasingly complex requirements of contemporary manufacturing, supported by automated quality‑assurance solutions designed for deployment both in the laboratory and on the production floor.
Visitors to the stand will be able to review an extensive range of inspection capabilities aimed at resolving the most challenging geometry and surface‑finish requirements. The line‑up includes Bruker Alicona 3-D metrology systems, providing sub‑nanometre roughness measurement and high‑accuracy micro‑form analysis. These will be complemented by Starrett Metrology’s proven shopfloor equipment, including precision profile projectors and digital inspection systems recognised for their robustness and consistency.
Optimax will also demonstrate ergonomic, high‑definition visual inspection systems from Vision Engineering, designed to reduce operator fatigue while maintaining the highest levels of visual clarity. For applications requiring the examination of deep or difficult‑to‑access internal cavities, the stand will feature Hawkeye video borescopes, offering industry‑leading image quality and diagnostic accuracy.
Together, these technologies represent an integrated, end‑to‑end inspection capability. By bridging the gap between high‑precision laboratory analysis and reliable, repeatable shopfloor measurement, Optimax aims to ensure that every internal and external feature — no matter how small or complex — can be assessed with complete confidence. The company sees this combined approach as a significant step forward in establishing the next generation of measurement standards for advanced engineering.
