Dimensional inspection is the systematic process of measuring and verifying the physical dimensions of parts or assemblies to ensure they conform to specified tolerances. Accurate dimensional inspection is critical in industries such as aerospace, telecom, electronics manufacturing, and industrial machinery, where even minute deviations can lead to costly production issues or compliance failures.
Our dimensional inspection services at EML Calibration encompass complete metrology support, including cad-based inspection services and cmm measurements, conducted with utmost precision and trustworthiness. Our advanced lab facilities combined with flexible on-site calibration ensure minimal operational interruptions and sustained equipment precision.
Our dimensional inspection process is engineered to provide the highest quality dimensional inspections, combining precision measuring, scanning, and thorough reporting to support your quality and engineering goals. The following provides a summary of the dimensional inspection workflow:
Prior to starting inspections, our engineering experts assess your gage, scanners, and associated equipment slated our dimensional inspection services for use. We verify that all measuring instruments meet ISO/IEC 17025 calibration standards and maintain NIST traceability to ensure audit compliance and certification acceptance.
Using the latest scanning technologies and dimensional inspection equipment, including high-resolution surface scanners and 3D measuring devices, EML Calibration conducts detailed inspections on your parts. The scanners deliver precise surface profiles, detecting dimensional discrepancies or surface imperfections at micrometer-level resolution.


Both contact and non-contact scanning approaches are supported, allowing adaptability to differing surface characteristics. The engineering team merges scanning results with CAD-based inspection services for immediate comparison of physical parts against digital models.
Regular calibration services are performed on all measuring equipment and scanning devices either in our lab or through on-site calibration to maintain measurement accuracy and consistency. The upkeep records are managed within your calibration program and facilitated by an asset management platform compatible with CMMS systems. Such integration minimizes downtime and keeps instruments fully compliant with required calibration schedules.
With extensive expertise across electronic and mechanical calibration services, EML Calibration delivers full-service dimensional inspections. Dimensional inspections at EML Calibration utilize precise CMM measurements combined with state-of-the-art surface scanning techniques that go beyond typical industry accuracy levels.
For complex geometrical scanning or surface feature inspections using contact gage methods, EML Calibration’s lab and mobile teams provide all-encompassing solutions. Our dimensional inspection services include:
ATS conducts dimensional inspections and provides an in-depth calibration report ensuring traceability and supporting your engineering documentation needs.
Recognizing that transporting sensitive instruments may cause notable downtime and logistical issues, EML Calibration offers on-site calibration via mobile laboratory units. These mobile units are equipped with the same advanced equipment found in our accredited lab, allowing your measuring and scanning devices to be calibrated accurately and with minimal operational interruption.
