The structures, Materials and Manufacturing (SMM) Laboratory in Montreal has a mandate to serve the aerospace manufacturing industry to be more competitive edge. To better serve the four research groups, it is required to perform inspection and characterisation of cutting tools inlducing endmills, drills, facemills, turning tools?etc in terms of tool geometry and wear status. As such, it is required to have a video tool analyzer system with high resolution camera, automatic light adjustment and feature recognition capabilities. The work consists of delivering and installing a 3D video tool analyser with all of its components, and giving the required training. The work has to be completed before March 31, 2018. A full two year warranty is required.
