Founded in 1994, NRK completely revolutionized coordinate measurement with the first metrology software to introduce a 3D graphic environment for portable metrology. Today, NRK develops and supports the industry standard in portable metrology software solutions. SpatialAnalyzer (SA), its flagship offering, addresses a broad spectrum of challenges related to large-scale measurement with portable metrology devices in manufacturing plants around the world.

“When it comes to industries like aerospace and shipbuilding, where parts are either very large or very expensive, mitigation of continuous rework is an absolute necessity, and NRK’s software facilitates this,” says Norbert Hanke, president of Hexagon Metrology. “From single -part inspection to highly accurate, large scale, multi-instrument surveys, SA’s advanced analysis capabilities support large-scale manufacturers that have no other option but to make components that fit."
