Romer strives to have an impact in all of these industries especially the automotive industry which is regularly reliant on reverse engineering, 3D scanning and products development. This is an industry that keeps its competitiveness by coming out with innovative products that pass rigorous quality control.

And when one talks of quality control, one can only think of flexible quality control and inspection tools like the portable arm coordinating measuring machines from Romer.

Romer is a corporation with company headquarters situated in Michigan's Hexagon Metrology Precision Center. It is well known for manufacturing dependable and innovative products that respond to the necessities of general engineering industries, particularly the heavy equipment and automotive industries.

The automotive industry has become so competitive that companies need to produce highly innovative products in a short period of time. Otherwise, it gets left behind by other companies that can effortlessly come up with shorter production runs.

Companies producing cars have learned from experience that there is a way to improve their productivity and their product quality. With Romer's products, automotive companies can decrease ramp up times and reduce part rejections, thus improving production efficiency and minimizing losses.

Romer for Motor Sports

The automotive industry is far-reaching but one of the most notable and popular sectors is motor sport. This sector considers Dekra, which is the German Touring Car Masters' official technical partner, one of the leading expert organizations around the world.

With more than 22,000 employees and active involvement in over 50 countries worldwide, Dekra relies on Romer's measuring arm to ensure quality and long-term safety in the field of motor sport. One very significant Romer instrument in the racetrack is the portable Romer CMM.

Racing fans watching the DTM racing weekends will usually find Volker Noeske and Wolfgang Dammert of the Dekra Team in the circuits, to ensure that everything is according to regulations, including the weight of every vehicle and driver. They are of course armed with the Romer Infinite 2.0 measuring arm for the dimensional checks.

With the low weight of the Romer arm, it has become very handy and portable equipment for the race. It is thus not surprising that since the 2010 season, it has been used at every DTM race the world over.

Romer for the Heavy Machinery Industry

Romer's measuring arms are also an important part in Ausa's operations, which is very significant considering that it is the largest manufacturer of all-terrain forklifts, dumpers and concrete mixers around the world.

Ausa is a multinational company with a 64,000 square meter headquarters and production plant in Barcelona, and with subsidiaries in Florida, China, Germany, United Kingdom, France and Madrid. Ausa has a wide reach as its products are marketed by 225 distributors in more than 70 countries.

The company has enhanced its production and is relying on Romer's measuring arm to make its production line more efficient.

Romer's measuring arms and other products are certainly heaven-sent for the automobile industry, especially for companies that want to maintain its competitiveness the world over.
