His track record bears witness to his ability to transform technological innovations into concrete solutions that meet market needs.

His experience in launching new innovation programs and in international business will be a crucial asset in driving the performance and growth of the newly merged entities of DCS and Metrologic Group. Benoit Perrin is a graduate of CentraleSupélec and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

"Benoit will be valuable to Metrologic Group, DCS and Sandvik with his broad business background, strategic acumen, leadership, and insight into modern technologies in the industrial world, explains Matthias Nilsson, President of the Sandvik Manufacturing Solutions business area segment. In times of increased ambitions for our business in agnostic 3D metrology software, his leadership will match our team’s needs very well, and I look forward to working with Benoit in the years to come ."
METROLOGIC GROUP – DCS : A NEW BUSINESS UNIT

The synergies between DCS (Dimensional Control Systems) and Metrologic Group are particularly strong in the fields of dimensional control, variation analysis and quality management in the manufacturing industry.

A real technological complementarity for Industry 4.0.

Together, the 2 entities offer a complete solution integrating simulation, measurement, traceability and manufacturing process optimization within a connected factory workflow, which is a strong asset for well-established as well as emerging industrial sectors such as aeronautics, automotive and rail.
The aim of this Business Unit will be to position the company as a key player in the metrology market, capable of offering innovative solutions to meet the needs of industrial players in the fields of quality control, 3D inspection and process improvement.

CONTROL EXHIBITION: A MUST SEE FIRST MEETING

Metrologic Group and DCS will be taking the opportunity to highlight their synergies at the Control exhibition, to be held in Stuttgart (Germany) from May 6 to 9. Metrologic Group and DCS are sharing a stand, along with ZeroTouch Metrology (part of Sandvik), where visitors can browse through 3D end-to-end inspection software solutions.

DISCOVER OUR BOOTH: THE END-TO-END MANUFACTURING INPECTION PROCESS

Planning with Planner X4 and 3DCS

Planner X4 is an offline tool for preparing inspection plans. In particular, the software enables measurement characteristics to be identified and analysis reports to be prepared, saving time and securing programming. 3DCS is a tolerance and geometric variation analysis software package that helps to anticipate production problems even before manufacturing, thanks to tolerance optimization.

Off-line programming with Silma X4

Silma X4 is an off-line software package that enables 3D measurement processes to be programmed, simulated and validated virtually, optimizing precision and productivity without mobilizing real equipment.

Measurement with Metrolog X4

The online software Metrolog X4 collects measurement data on a massive scale, in real time and in a secure environment. A universal product capable of interfacing with all measurement equipment (CMMs, arms, laser trackers, optical equipment, etc.).

Management and analysis with Manager Suite and the 3DCS QDM solutions
Interactive software tools, enabling measurement data to be visualized and transformed into useful information for decision-making, compliance and continuous improvement.

SYNERGIES WITH ZERO TOUCH METROLOGY

Part of the stand is dedicated to measuring machines from ZeroTouch Metrology, a sister company of the Sandvik Group specializing in transforming high-volume manufacturing processes with state-of-the-art sensors.

Software from Metrologic Group and 3DCS are fully compatible with the ZeroTouch approach, and can be integrated into an automated and connected measurement environment, increasing productivity and reducing the risk of human error.
The alignment between the universal software developed by Metrologic Group and DCS and the powerful ZeroTouch measuring machines thus forms a complete solution for 100% automated quality control.
