Level 3 Inspection Demonstrates Turnkey Smart Inspection Station™ at OMTEC 2011

CHICAGO, June 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Level 3 Inspection LLC (L3I) of Florida and Indiana, an ISO 9001, AS9100 and AAAM 44.9:OI/OS-certified precision manufacturing process engineering and dimensional inspection firm, will demonstrate its SiS-855™ in Booth 101 at the OMTEC 2011 orthopaedic exposition June 15 and 16, 2011 at the Stephens Convention Center in Chicago.

At the explicit request of several prominent orthopaedic manufacturers, L3I has now channeled its expertise in professional metrology services and advanced dimensional inspection into a turnkey solutions division -- Smart Inspection Systems LLC (SiS). SiS has developed a configurable line of automated Computer Aided Inspection (CAI) systems that make accurate and comprehensive dimensional reports available in just minutes.

"We've been listening intently to what our clients want in order to adopt this 21st-century measurement and inspection technology," said L3I CEO Bill Greene. "The SiS™ is the culmination of our 11 years' experience with these technologies. With its configuration options, ease, speed and automation, it's an ideal platform for shop floor precision parts inspection."

Using fringe-light patterns to digitize the entire surfaces of orthopaedic implants, medical instruments, and other precision manufactured parts, the SiS™ automatically generates complete inspection reports with minimal operator input and personnel training. It can be installed practically anywhere in an orthopaedic manufacturer's operations -- even a busy shop floor.

The SiS™ provides an unsurpassed understanding of geometric form, with millions of data points across the surface. "Studies have proved that [L3I's] system and method of inspection for implants is as accurate or better than our CMM's. Since the white light scanning processes have the required accuracy and can cover so much more of the feature surface, their data is a more accurate representation of true size and form." -- Metrology Director, Orthopaedic OEM

Measurement Systems Evaluations (MSE) and Gauge Repeatability and Reproducibility (GR&R) studies have consistently demonstrated measurement accuracies of 0.000040". These performance reports are available upon request.
