Mahr Federal to Install Race Car Metrology Tools

PROVIDENCE, R.I., March 31 -- Mahr Federal Inc. has signed a multiyear sponsorship agreement with Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR), two-time winner of NASCAR's Winston Cup Championship, to install dimensional metrology systems at the JGR Raceshop headquarters in Huntersville, N.C., and to provide expertise in precision measurement.

The systems will include the Mahrform MMQ 44, a modular CNC system for measuring roundness; a Mahr perthometer concept surface finish and contour measuring system; an 828 PC-length measuring machine; a multisensor system incorporating laser, optical and tactile probe measurement; and the Primar MX4, to inspect form and geometry on parts such as gears and crankshafts.

"Metrology is a relatively new concept in NASCAR racing which we believe can provide a tremendous technological advantage," said Craig Crossley, president of Mahr Federal.
