Delivering Metrology With Precise Equipment and Advice

Metrology is an essential principle of engineering and manufacturing. In simple terms, it is the science of measurement and seeks to uphold, validate, and verify predefined standards regarding traceability, accuracy, reliability, and precision. Through a strategic partnership with leading Italian CMM manufacturer Tomelleri and industry expertise, Leussink delivers tailored metrology solutions to meet exacting requirements. These solutions range from enhancing deviation analysis efficiency to ensuring precision and accuracy in reverse engineering.

Comprehensive Metrology Services For Australian Industry

Beyond equipment supply, Leussink is a trusted source of metrology tools in Australia, delivering a complete suite of metrology services for manufacturers, fabricators, and engineering teams operating across Australia and New Zealand. Each service draws on more than 40 years of in-house engineering experience and the precision standards demanded by clients in aerospace, defence, mining, and high-volume manufacturing.

Dimensional Metrology Services

Our dimensional metrology services validate the geometry, alignment, and tolerance of components from prototype through to high-volume production. We capture surface measurements, GD&T datums, and deviation analyses against CAD models, supporting both first-article inspection and ongoing quality assurance programs.

ISO-Standard Calibration Services

Leussink operates an in-house ISO-standard calibration facility delivering metrology calibration services across Australia and New Zealand. We calibrate and verify portable measuring arms, gauges, and reference instruments using certified masters, ensuring measurement traceability and full compliance with quality management standards.

On-Site Metrology Services

When components are too large to relocate, or production downtime must be minimised, our team mobilises portable Tomelleri measuring arms and 3D scanning equipment directly to your facility. Shop-floor metrology supports installation alignment, fabrication verification, and in-situ tolerance checking.

Reverse Engineering and 3D Metrology Services

Our digital metrology solutions pair portable measuring arms with specialist software, including Aberlink, to digitise existing parts, recreate CAD models, and engineer replacement or improved components. These optical metrology services support legacy equipment refurbishment, obsolete-part recovery, and design iteration projects.

Metrology Equipment Services and Breakdown Support

Equipment failures cost manufacturers thousands of dollars per hour of lost production. Our specialised 24/7 breakdown response team provides fault diagnosis, replacement measurement workflows, and rapid service to keep production lines running.

Benefits of Accurate Metrology in Australian Manufacturing

Traditional hand tools such as calipers and micrometers measure distance from point A to point B, but they cannot validate complex geometries, free-form surfaces, or GD&T tolerances. As manufacturing precision requirements have tightened, portable measuring technology has replaced fixed-bed CMMs in many workshops. Precision coordinate measuring in Australia now happens on the shop floor and on-site, delivering comparable accuracy to fixed installations at the point of work.

Accurate metrology, applied across production processes, delivers measurable business outcomes:

  • Faster first-article inspection and shorter production start-up time
  • Verified equipment calibration to ISO standards
  • Repeatable, traceable measurements suited to audit and compliance
  • Reduced rework, scrap, and warranty claims
  • Higher process capability (Cpk) and yield rates
  • Earlier detection of tooling drift and dimensional non-conformance

Metrology Case Study

Leussink metrology in action

Leussink's metrology capabilities support Australian industrial, manufacturing, and engineering clients on projects that demand micron-level accuracy. The case study below illustrates how Tomelleri portable measuring arms, reverse engineering, and integrated fixturing solve real production problems.

Reverse Engineering A Critical Plant Impeller

Industrial client - East coast Australia

A major Australian industrial firm needed to replace a one-of-a-kind cast-iron impeller used to pump cooling salt water through its plant. No existing designs or molds were available, and the long lead time for cast replacements was no longer commercially viable.

Leussink’s engineering team used a Tomelleri portable measuring arm with laser scanner to capture a complete 3D scan of the original impeller, then created manufacturing drawings from the digital model. The reverse engineering process revealed that only one of the impeller’s five blades was operating efficiently. Leussink engineered a new design machined from solid 316 stainless steel, delivering improved blade efficiency, greater corrosion resistance, and significantly extended service life.
