Mitutoyo's world leading metrology tools provided to SUFST!
We are happy to announce that Mitutoyo UK Ltd, the world-leading brand in metrology, has sponsored the Southampton University Formula Student Team by providing us with a range of high-quality measuring tools. Their contribution has had a significant impact on the accuracy of our manufacturing and building processes.
The tools from Mitutoyo UK, including specialist callipers, micrometres, dial indicators, steel rules, depth gauges, a height gauge and more, have improved the accuracy of our work. This precision ensures that every component of our Formula Student car is made to a high-quality standard.
We recently welcomed Chris Pullen, Sales Manager, and Philip Fisher, Marketing Manager, from Mitutoyo UK to visit University of Southampton. During their visit, we showed them around the R J Mitchell Wind Tunnel, SUFST Autolab, Engine Lab, Mechatronics Lab, Composites Lab, and the Manufacturing Facilities. It was an opportunity to demonstrate how their tools are being utilised in our team. Chris also presented some Metrology Handbooks to some team members, providing valuable resources for ongoing work.
Additionally, Andrew Southwell, OEM Sales Specialist, and Lewis Frewer, Technical Support Specialist, from Mitutoyo UK, attended the University's Design Show a couple weeks ago. An event that highlights the innovation within the university, spanning projects from first-year students to postgraduates. We displayed the current development of our Formula Student car, Stag X.
