The automotive industry is expanding steadily yearly, with future development trends focusing on electrification, intelligence, and lightweight design. Given the high precision requirements of automotive manufacturing, precision measurement technology plays a critical role in the process. To support the industry’s growth, governments worldwide have introduced a range of policies, including purchase tax reductions, license plate incentives, and investments in charging infrastructure. These measures demonstrate the immense potential for growth in the automotive sector.
As market demand for new models changes rapidly, automakers are under pressure to continuously shorten development cycles and improve production efficiency. Precision measurement can quickly find design and production problems. It does this through automation and digitalization. This helps manufacturers adjust designs quickly, reducing errors and downtime. As a result, it speeds up product time to market.
Testing complex automotive components requires various measurement solutions. These include precision tools, large CMMs, visual measurement systems, and data management systems. To evaluate the vehicle’s performance, manufacturers must integrate different measurement tools. This will ensure all types of data can be connected and shared.
The MEAXPERT SATURN series has a high load capacity and a large stroke, and is capable of measuring large workpieces. It can be used to add a probe laser to measure workpieces with three-dimensional dimensions, effectively improving efficiency.

The application of precision measurement technology in the automotive industry is extensive and mainly focuses on the following aspects:
Using equipment such as coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) and vision measurement systems, high-precision dimensional inspection is conducted on automotive components like engine blocks, crankshafts, gears, and bearings. For instance, critical dimensions of engine block features, such as cylinder bores and crankshaft holes, typically require tolerances within ±0.01 mm.
This involves assessing the straightness, flatness, roundness, and cylindricity of components to identify and correct manufacturing errors. For example, CMMs inspect complex shapes in vehicle body manufacturing. They ensure the design matches the actual product.
Non-contact optical measurement technologies evaluate the surface texture, roughness, and waviness of components. They ensure the surface quality meets performance requirements.
