CASE STUDY / OVERVIEW CASE AT A GLANCE When parts are too large to move, inspection has to come to them. Castings from 0.5 m to 5 m required fast, accurate dimensional control without moving the part or introducing cable hazards on the foundry floor. THE SOLUTION NimbleTrack captured complete surface data wirelessly, while 3D software converted the scan into an intuitive dimensional report. A representative casting was scanned in just 4 minutes, giving FENSA faster, decision-ready evidence for routine inspection. Foundry & Heavy Industry SOLUTION 4 MIN representative casting scan UP TO 5 M casting...

CASE STUDY / CONTEXT Large castings left little room for slow, fixed inspection FENSA FOUNDRY CASTINGS CUSTOMER CONTEXT INSPECTION OBJECTIVE FENSA is a leading Mexican foundry producing high-quality cast components for demanding industries. Its parts range from 0.5 m to 5 m and require rigorous dimensional quality control. Inspect large, bulky parts on the shop floor and deliver clear dimensional reports without moving them to a dedicated measurement room. PART RANGE Cast metal Foundry floor

CASE STUDY / CHALLENGE 01Large, variable geometry Castings span from 0.5 m to 5 m, combining heavy mass, complex surfaces and features that are difficult to reach with fixed equipment. The inspection system had to complete a scan in under 5 minutes to minimize disruption on the production floor. Wireless operation had to remove cable interference while a compact setup worked inside FENSA's limited inspection area. why change was needed The requirement: scan up to 5 m in under 5 minutes.

CASE STUDY / IMPLEMENTATION Four steps turn a bulky casting into decision-ready data FENSA positions the part, captures its geometry wirelessly and converts the scan into a dimensional report for its Energy Engineering Area. Set the casting in its inspection area—no dedicated CMM setup. Scan the complete surface using the wireless scanner and tracker. 03 / BUILD COMPLETE 3D DATA Process dense scan data into a full digital model of the casting. Run dimensional analysis and deliver a clear engineering report.
