Construction industry, building materials

This area means less the construction industry directly but rather the suppliers of the construction companies and also manufacturers of building materials. Modern buildings have high requirements which can only be achieved by means of high quality building materials. Therefore, the quality must be already measured during the production of building materials using distance and position sensors. The measuring technology of Micro-Epsilon has already proven itself many times for this use.
