Boeing Aircraft, St. Louis has been using theodolite coordinate measurement systems since the mid-1980s to replace optical transits and tooling bars and to reduce manufacturing application and inspection times. The theodolite system is an optical measurement system for operators to map and send data points to a PC for storage and later use. The system uses two to four theodolite heads and a central computer to triangulate the position of data points for better coverage of the work envelope. Data can be collected at a rate of five points per minute using experienced operators. mer info

With current and future aircraft becoming more complex , the McDonnell Douglas Tooling Center has outfitted itself with the most accurate, cost-effective methods of measuring and building large three-dimensional objects. Utilizing coordinate measuring systems, the Smart310 Laser Tracker Systems build and inspect to ever narrowing tolerances. With systems that can record measurements at a rate of 500 coordinates per second, time- consuming tasks that would have been overwhelming in the past, are now done quickly, accurately and in a cost-effective manner. mer info
