A case study of VICIVISION and METRIOS measuring machines usage
When you have something made at Meccanica Melegari, you can be sure it will be done right. Meccanica Melegari is an Italian family business now run by the third generation of the Melegari family.
“I remember starting out by counting boxes, and then moving into the office. Being part of a family business is like having a permanent place. You go from one department to another and learn how everything works,” says Giulia Melegari, who is in charge of sales.
The company has undergone a comprehensive modernization and now boasts a fleet of the most advanced machinery. It focuses on machining over 500 different parts, most of which are made of steel.
To streamline quality control, the company has decided to purchase the METRIOS Cross measuring device. With this innovative tool, the company is able to check the coaxiality of rotating diameters and the dimensions of holes in record time – in less than 32 seconds.
With a tolerance of just 0.1 mm, regular inspections are essential. The METRIOS Cross meets the needs perfectly.

“These machines are very user-friendly. All operators can manufacture and control their work. They know when it’s time to change something on the machine or adjust production parameters,” explains Francesco Melegari, the company’s production manager since 2003. “VICIVISION M609 in less than 10 seconds can check the distance between the axes of spherical parts, all their diameters, and the diameters of cylindrical parts.”
Everyone here knows that in today’s relentless competition, it is investments in machines and people that allow them to stay ahead of the curve. And they will keep investing – to quality and to Made in Italy products.
