First Article Inspections
First Article Inspection is a major function  of manufacturing and  with the industry requirements and the additional customer requirements for FAI it can seem almost impossible, until now.

Level 3 Inspection has found a solution to the most complicated first article inspections. With a deep understanding of the industry and OEM specifications for FAI, Level 3 can offer turnkey first article inspections that go beyond traditional layouts and still conform to all of the governing specifications. The company has implemented a  SmartFAI™ process that combines White Light Scanning (WLS) with computer-aided-inspection (CAI).sure. 

The combination gives Level 3 the ability to perform more comprehensive inspections on parts in a shorter amount of time. The SmartFAI™ First Article Inspection (FAI) process involves verifying every feature on the part by comparing it to a customer-supplied part print and 3D CAD model. First-article inspections are done prior to full production release and often while a part is in development.

The Level 3 approach replaces traditional plate inspection or a CMM system with WLS, which can capture and calculate precise 3D coordinates for millions of points in seconds.
