Andretti Racing gains freedom & function with ScanArm

August 2, 2008

CASE STUDY:
Andretti Green Racing has more wins than any team in IndyCar Series history. In their continuing goal of excellence, AGR reverse engineers full-size race car parts to improve the accuracy of the team’s wind tunnel models. They use this information as a starting point for design modifications.

AGR acquired the 8-foot FARO^® ScanArm, which gives them the portable CMM and the surface scanner they needed. The ScanArm has the accuracy and portability they were looking for and the quick setup and ease-of-use that was important. The fact that FARO stands behind their products with support and customer service adds to the value.
