About 3D-Inspection
3D-Inspection Dieker is a service company focused on mobile 3D measurement in tactile and optical coordinate metrology. Its range of services includes laser tracker and measuring arm measurements, ScanArm measurement services, terrestrial 3D laser scanning, robot measurement and calibration (base, TCP, frame and absolute measurement), jig and gripper measurement, machine alignment and leveling as well as nominal/actual comparisons against CAD data. In addition, it offers design and manufacture of measuring adapters, software training (Polyworks, Faro CAM2, PowerInspect), measuring system training, hardware rental and staffing services with 3D metrology technicians. The deployed measuring systems are certified annually by the device manufacturer. Customers come from the automotive industry, the robotics sector, aircraft manufacturing, mechanical engineering, plant engineering and wind energy; robot cell measurements are carried out to BMW, Daimler, VW, Audi and VOLVO standards. The sole proprietorship, owned by Christian Dieker, is based in Coesfeld in the western Münsterland, near the Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan region, and operates mainly in Germany.
