Nikon Metrology (Brighton, Michigan) has announced a distributor partnership with Bradford Instrument & Gage (Wilmington, Delaware). The agreement will enable Bradford to distribute Nikon’s quality and metrology products to customers in the Mid-Atlantic United States region, encompassing Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
Tony Scirpo, Nikon business solutions manager for the region, says that Bradford will supply Nikon’s multi-sensor coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), optical vision systems and laser scanners, which can be retrofitted to new and existing CMMs and articulating arms.
