Fullerton College Selects Hexagon’s CMM Technologies

For Metrology Program

Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence has announced its portable and stationary coordinate measuring machine (CMM) technologies will be integrated into a new Metrology Program offered at Fullerton College, North Orange County, in Fullerton, CA. Fullerton College is a equipped machinist trade schools in California. Starting in the Fall of 2018, students will learn how to use a wide array of measurement and inspection tools including ROMER Absolute arms, laser scanners, CMMs and more. The new curriculum will enable students to study the science of measurement and acquire job skills that are in high demand by science laboratories and industries using advanced manufacturing technologies such as aerospace, defense, automotive, medical, and power generation. Students can begin work toward a Metrology Certificate of Achievement with several compulsory courses currently available. For more program information, visit http://machine.fullcoll.edu.

The Metrology Program is a natural extension of the Machine Technology curriculum already in place at Fullerton College. Course study will cover fundamental metrology concepts and offer hands-on usage of shop floor CMMs and portable measuring machines (PCMMs) for practical measurement and inspection operations conducted in machine shops and manufacturing cells. The ROMER articulating arm is a versatile measurement tool designed to meet the needs of almost any measurement application, whether scanning or touch-probing. This portable CMM provides the foundation for Fullerton College’s rigorous program of electives designed to prepare students for scientific research and today’s data-driven manufacturing environments. The ROMER Absolute arm with integrated RS4 laser scanner will provide the means for precision 3D data capture across a range of surfaces and applications.
