DETROIT, MI - GKS
Inspection Services, a global provider of dimensional measurement and 3D
laser scanning services, has acquired a full-sized cargo van for its
Detroit-area office. “We are adding convenience to our already long
list of services by offering free part pickup and drop-off for our local
customers,” said Steve DeRemer, General Manager of the GKS Michigan
Region. The free service is for customers within a 15-mile radius of
GKS’ Plymouth, Michigan facility.

The cargo van’s payload can carry up to
3,000 pounds, so a large sized mold or part is no obstacle to using this
courtesy service. In addition, the GKS van is available for
transporting GKS metrologists and equipment to customer sites for onsite
measurement and scanning projects. “Reliability to our customers is our
goal and providing reliable transportation for our technicians and
equipment will facilitate our timeliness and scheduling,” remarked
DeRemer. Since temperature fluctuations can alter the measurement
accuracy of metrology instruments, the GKS van is maintained overnight
in a temperature controlled lab so that the company’s sensitive
equipment is not subjected to severe temperature swings during the drive
to the customer site.
DeRemer added, “We are projecting
substantial growth in our onsite services business in 2007 and expect
our company van will be an asset in this effort.” The GKS onsite
services division has numerous Platinum Faro Arm portable CMMs equipped
with both touch probes and laser scanners.
GKS Inspection Services has been a leading
provider of dimensional measurement and 3D laser scanning services for
25 years. The company’s Plymouth, MI lab (in the Detroit area) is
accredited by the A2LA for Mechanical Testing and Calibration. The
Michigan lab features numerous CMMs, vision systems, 3D laser scanners,
surface analyzers, and other inspection equipment. GKS also has branch
offices in Minneapolis, Toledo, India, and Korea. The company’s expert
metrologists and engineers are experienced in automotive and many other
manufacturing industries.
