MAXIMISING DOWNTIME
BLUM-NOVOTEST
Blum-Novotest launches virtual showcase to give
industry a window to its production metrology
One of the UK’s leading providers of
production metrology is going online to
help it deliver product awareness and
technical application sessions during
Covid-19.
Blum-Novotest is looking to maximise any
industrial downtime by offering new and
existing customers the opportunity to take
part in 60 to 90-minute sessions that will
give them the chance to learn about the
latest products and how they can be used
to save time and improve accuracy.
The company, which delivers its solutions
to some of the world’s largest aerospace
primes, car manufacturers and a host of
CNC machine tool suppliers, is showcasing
its DIGILOG touch probes/laser control and
roughness gauges, as well as the latest
LC-Vision software to boost machining
performance.
Six clients have already taken part as
a way of finding out more about the
Blum-Novotest portfolio, the benefits they
provide and how technical experts can get
the most out of the technology.
“Whilst there’s nothing like visiting
customers face-to-face and getting to
the bottom of their needs, the virtual
approach is certainly proving a very
worthwhile exercise and is receiving
significant interest from machine dealers
and sub-contractors,” explained David
Mold, Managing Director of Blum-Novotest
in the UK.
“We have a lot of solutions that cover
measuring components, measuring
machines and test engineering, but some
parts of industry will only know us for
certain products. The online sessions give
us a great opportunity to talk to and virtually
demo all of our solutions, taking questions
on application, installation and trailing new
products that will be launched later this
year.”
He continued: “The feedback has been
really good and we certainly believe that
virtual sessions could remain part of our
marketing mix alongside more conventional
face-to-face meetings. It’s certainly going
to be a major benefit for us with a lot of UK
and international trade shows cancelled or
delayed as a result of the pandemic.”
