soluzioni di misura Hexagon acquisizione Nextsense

Hexagon enriched its portfolio of industrial measurement solutions with the acquisition of Nextsense, an Austria based company specialized in non-contact profile measurement and surface inspection for the automotive, railway, steel and aerospace industries.

The advanced manual, inline and automated solutions of Nextsense are backed by the patented Calipri technology, a measurement principle that automatically compensates for tilts and rotations during scanning, providing the ability to address profile deviations and surface defects immediately, with highly-accurate measurement values that are free of operator influence. The cutting-edge technology and algorithms from Nextsense provide the necessary analytics to introduce corrective measures sooner, unleashing the full potential of quality data in the smart factory.

The acquisition extends Hexagon’s breadth of capabilities in automotive fit and finish, as well as in industries such as rail and steel. The combination of sensors, software and advanced analytics from both companies’ portfolios will bring added value to customers while extending the global reach of Nextsense solutions to new markets and regions.
