Assuring Precision – Every Component, Every Time

At Vision Precision Engineering (VPE), quality isn’t an afterthought – it’s the foundation of everything we do.

With over 25 years of experience serving industries where precision is critical – including aerospace, defence, motorsport, automotive, mining, and food manufacturing – we understand that even the smallest deviation can have major consequences.

To guarantee the highest levels of accuracy and repeatability, every component we manufacture is now inspected using our latest investment in advanced metrology: the OGP SmartScope Flash CNC 300 multi-sensor measurement system.

Precision That Sets Us Apart

Traditional Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) can struggle to capture complex contours, reflective surfaces, or fine micro-features.

The SmartScope’s multi-sensor approach removes these limitations, allowing us to measure intricate 2D and 3D features in a single setup – faster, more accurately, and with complete confidence in the results.

For our customers, this means:

  • Faster project turnaround with automated, high-speed measurement cycles.

  • Higher confidence in component accuracy – especially for precision-critical sectors.

  • Full digital inspection reports supplied with every part, ensuring complete traceability and quality assurance.

  • Reduced risk and cost of rework, through early verification and continuous process control.

ISO_9001-2015 Certification

Introducing the SmartScope Flash CNC 300

The SmartScope Flash CNC 300, designed by world-leading metrology specialists OGP, represents a new era in precision inspection and automated quality control.

This state-of-the-art system combines optical, laser, and tactile measurement technologies in a single platform, allowing VPE to inspect even the most complex geometries with unmatched speed and precision.

Key advantages include:

  • Large measurement range of 300 × 300 × 250 mm – ideal for both small intricate parts and larger assemblies.

  • Multi-sensor versatility – seamlessly integrates video, touch-probe, scanning-probe and through-the-lens laser inspection in one automated process.

  • AccuCentric® auto-compensating zoom optics – automatically calibrates for each magnification to ensure consistent accuracy.

  • SmartRing™ LED lighting – delivers uniform, adaptable illumination for highly repeatable measurements on any surface finish.

  • Elevating-bridge design – eliminates common mechanical errors, ensuring superior stability and measurement integrity.

  • Fully automated “lights-out” operation – enables round-the-clock inspection, increasing throughput and reducing lead times.

  • Traceable data output – every inspection is backed by full documentation and digital reporting for complete quality traceability.
