Industry applications

Metrology programs for manufacturing teams with proof requirements.

Faro industry support is organized by the inspection problem rather than a broad market label. Each vertical below has different part access, tolerance language, audit pressure and evidence expectations, so the instrument and support plan must match the way results are defended.

Industries we measure for

EV

Automotive & EV

CMM, vision and laser-tracker inspection across body-in-white, gigacasting, battery module and motor stator workflows.

AE

Aerospace Precision Manufacturing

ISO 10360 probing-error qualification, micron-class blade and turbine-disk inspection with NIST traceability.

MD

Precision Mold & Die

Roundness, form and surface-roughness testing in mold qualification and die-set acceptance.

IM

Medical Device Manufacturing

Implantable and disposable-device dimensional verification under IATF and ISO 13485 traceability rules.

WO

Watchmaking & Optics

Sub-micron form and roundness inspection for lens housings, watch movement parts and optomechanical fixtures.

Technical requirements

How application pressure changes the evidence package

IndustryMeasurement pressureEvidence focusTypical Faro response
Automotive & EVHigh-volume fixtures and process capability reviews.Repeatability, fixture access and IATF-ready records.Portable CMM or laser tracker plan with operator guidance.
Aerospace PrecisionLarge parts, tight tolerances and supplier oversight.ISO 10360 references, NIST traceability and environmental notes.Laser tracker package with documented verification route.
Mold & DieSurface finish, form and acceptance disputes.Roundness, roughness and profile evidence tied to acceptance criteria.Surface and form measurement plan with calibration schedule.
Medical DeviceSmall features and regulated quality systems.Traceability language that fits ISO 13485 documentation habits.Vision measurement plan with controlled lighting and fixture review.
Watchmaking & OpticsSub-micron details on delicate components.Stable fixtures, repeatable imaging and form measurement records.Vision and form inspection workflow with narrow uncertainty review.

Faro avoids universal accuracy claims because field performance depends on part geometry, environment, setup and operator method. A realistic review defines those conditions first, then pairs instrument options with measurable acceptance criteria.

Application request

Share the part, tolerance stack and audit context.

Faro can help turn a broad industry label into a specific inspection route with the calibration and reporting evidence your customer will expect.
