John Deere - all files (zip)

When faced with increased production at John Deere’s construction and forestry products manufacturing facility in Davenport (Iowa USA) the company also had to address resultant capacity challenges to keep up with component verification. John Deere’s high quality standards meant that it also needed to measure more features, in the same amount of time, than ever before. To meet these challenges, including the measurement of very large parts, an upgrade of their existing co-ordinate measuring machine (CMM) by Renishaw has led to a capability for ‘lights-out’ inspection coupled with a major increase in productivity.
