DaimlerChrysler Purchases 150th CAM2 Software License from FARO
LAKE MARY, Fla., Dec. 29 - Automobile manufacturer
DaimlerChrysler recently purchased its 150th software license from FARO
Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq: FARO). Besides using FARO CAM2(TM) (Computer-Aided
Manufacturing Measurement) software in five German plants, DaimlerChrysler is
using FARO products in its facilities in the United States, South Africa,
Brazil and Turkey.
FARO's family of CAM2 measurement software is used at DaimlerChrysler in:
research and development, process planning, models and mock-ups, building of
fixtures and manufacturing in foundry, prototyping, control and verification.
DaimlerChrysler uses FARO's CAM2 Analyzer(TM) for viewing and analyzing large
CAD files; FARO's CAM2 Execute(TM) for monitoring of quality directly on the
shop floor; FARO's CAM2 Automotive(TM) for measuring surfaces and assemblies
on its automobiles; and FARO's CAM2 SPC Process(TM) for statistical process
control and analysis.
Heiko Riehl, an engineer at DaimlerChrysler's Rastatt facility in Germany,
is responsible for quality control. "Our goal was to build a central database
that would house all measurement and quality control data in real-time. A
major requirement that was met by FARO CAM2 software was its accessibility
from any factory PC and by any personnel on the shop floor."
FARO Technologies and its international subsidiaries design, develop and
market CAM2 systems and services for manufacturers of automotive, aerospace,
industrial and consumer products worldwide. Principle products include the
FaroArm(R), a six-degree-of-freedom articulating arm, and a CAM2 family of
advanced CAD-based measurement and reporting software. The FaroArm and CAM2
software provide manufacturers the freedom to measure production parts or
complex assemblies on the shop floor. FARO's customers benefit through
improved productivity and enhanced product quality because of reduced rework
and scrap within the manufacturing process. A recognized leader of
dimensional quality control products worldwide, FARO Technologies is ISO 9001
certified and Guide 25 approved. See FARO online at http://www.faro.com.
