Metrology in Manufacturing: How Smart, Inline Metrology Can Set Your Optical Assembly Program Up for Success

Wed, Sep 24, 2025 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM EDT
A successful optical assembly program depends on meeting goals for quality, cost, and delivery. This session examines how optical metrology—when strategically integrated throughout the manufacturing process—can directly support these objectives. From incoming component inspection to in-process checks and final functional testing, participants will explore where metrology adds the most value and where it may introduce unnecessary cost or complexity. The presentation will offer a balanced view of both benefits and limitations, empowering manufacturers to make informed decisions about metrology deployment. Real-world case studies will illustrate practical applications, helping professionals translate theory into effective process improvements. This session is especially relevant for those in manufacturing, quality, NPI, and engineering roles responsible for optical or optomechanical assembly production. Presented by Optikos.
