 Chem-tronics uses intelligent technology to perform close-tolerance
inspections with speed and precision. Our Optical Airfoil Surface Inspection
System (OASIS) uses high-resolution digital cameras and white light
interferometry to precisely measure over 20,000 data points simultaneously, reducing
inspection times up to 75% over conventional CMM inspection systems. |
 Chem-tronics' Computer Aided Design (CAD) capabilities
expedite tooling fabrication and CNC programming, providing excellent process control of
shop floor operations, and assuring critical production compliance without failure. |
 High Velocity Oxy-Fuel (HVOF) coatings applied robotically
in Chem-tronics' coatings facilities add OEM-approved durability to fan blade repairs and
allow Chem-tronics to minimize turntime while assuring the quality completion of repairs
from a single source. |
 Kaizen
"flexible manufacturing" practices help sharpen responsiveness to
customer needs by making the repair process more efficient. And our automated
customer communication system, Chem-fax, gives customers real-time
information on the status of orders in the production cycle via fax or
e-mail. |
