Automated Data Processing & Report Generation

Biography

Thomas Gramberger has more than one decade experience in developing automated NDT & Metrology Systems for the Aerospace Industry. His former activities in Automotive (Solutions for OEMs with Focus on Robotics and Simulation) is a good base to get use of Synergies from both industries. Introducing precise NC controlled robots in the NDT world is his passion, as he is convinced about the added value, this technology is giving to various inspection technologies. Multi-Modality is the new approach, bringing Aerospace Manufacturing Companies one step ahead – as automated systems can combine several NDT Inspection Methods, but also contactless Metrology (CMM).
