The 63-Year-Old Machine Builder Teaching Factories to See Inside Things
LK Metrology helped turn the coordinate measuring machine into a computerized judge of manufactured parts. Now the Derby company is assembling a broader inspection stack - touch probes, blue lasers, software and X-rays - for factories where a few microns can separate a clean delivery from an expensive problem.
The paperwork was killing the crew. Connixt handed them an app instead.
A 15-person, self-funded team in Cerritos built the maintenance app that field crews actually open - and got LA Metro, Metrolink and a Canadian grocery giant to trade their clipboards for it.
