Case Study: Lotus Makes the Most Accurate Sports Car Ever Produced Using an LK Metrology CMM
Did you know that a horizontal arm CMM from LK Metrology helped to make the LOTUS Emira one of the most accurate sports cars ever built by the legendary race car manufacturer? Check out this video case study from our supplier, LK Metrology to see some of the reasons LOTUS chose the 5-axis HC-90TR 63.16.25 twin-arm coordinate measuring machine (CMM) to utilize for quality control in their production process.

Improve Efficiency with Robotic Machine Tending
If you have humans repeatedly loading parts into a machine, you may want to consider automating that task. Robotic machine tending is a great way to improve efficiency while also freeing up human labor for more valuable tasks in other areas of your facility.
Innovating the Industrial World
Our podcast, Innovating the Industrial World, has now done two episodes on off-highway vehicle electrification. The first is a high level overview of vehicle electrification. The other episode dives a bit deeper into the process of machine metering and energy mapping for right sizing your motor and battery.

Did you know?
The Precision Measurement Group atCross can bring our inspection capabilities to you. There are some common applications for which on-site dimensional inspection may be necessary. These include measurement of large, heavy parts or assemblies, objects that must be measured in-situ, when there is heightened concern of damage or loss in transit, or when customer direction or witnessing is required. Our experienced inspection technicians can travel to your facility to take measurements directly on your manufacturing floor or in one of your labs! Click here to learn more.

Improve Efficiency
Choosing to adopt electric power take offs (ePTOs) as an alternative to the traditional engine PTO in an internal combustion engine can improve the energy efficiency of your equipment. From vehicle exhaust and emissions reduction to lessening the strain on the hydraulic system, there are many reasons manufacturers may choose to move to a hybrid vehicle model.
Whatever your reason, Cross Mobile Systems Integration Group can help. We take the time to learn your vehicle, manufacturing process, environmental requirements, and the needs of your future vehicle operators. When we understand how everything fits together, we’re able to create an ePTO system that is designed and optimized for your specific needs.
