IT and quality are usually kept separate in the corporate world—or considered two different beasts. But in his interview with Shelly LaPointe, head of Thermo Fisher’s IT department, Quality Digest CEO Jeff Dewar discovers a different relationship emerging. One of multiple interviews conducted during Master Control’s Masters Summit, which boasted approximately 1,000 attendees and multiple speakers within the manufacturing and tech industries, Dewar's conversation with LaPointe reveals insights into how IT professionals and quality management can work together to create a more cohesive and skillful workforce.
At IMTS in Chicago this year we looked at measurement solutions from Nikon, including a measuring microscope, optical comparator, stereo microscope with high-definition 24MP camera, and the NEXIV video measuring system.

At Coast Aerospace in Southern California, we measure a large aerospace tool with a Leica Absolute Tracker AT500 Probing System, coupled with Hexagon's Inspire metrology software.
Jonathan Dove of Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence demonstrates the TEMPO automated part loading system, a cost-effective solution that increases the throughput of your coordinate measuring machine and maximizes operational capacity.
We talk to Rob Bellinger of Evident (formerly Olympus) about the SZX-AR1 Augmented Reality Microscope System. The AR1 microscope system enables you to overlay text and digital images over your microscope's field of view, making it easy to follow directions, read notes, and even watch videos without removing your eyes from the eyepieces.
The AR1 module works with Olympus SZX stereo microscopes, turning them into augmented reality tools that improve the speed and efficiency of your microscope-based manufacturing tasks and training.
