FEATURES
Scan and align
- Collect point and polygon data from all major 3D scanners, digitizers and hard-probing devices
- Perform inspections with both ordered and unordered data
- Compare as built objects to a CAD model or an average of several scanned models
- Align models using your method of choice (datums, features, reference point system, 3-2-1 or best fit)
- Save, load and apply alignment methods for automated and repeatable inspection
- Generate 3D color-mapped models to illustrate deviations over an entire part
- Define and modify the color spectrum including segmented color spectrums
- Create Go/No Go graphical reports for easy to read analysis
- Generate deviation whisker plots of model cross sections
Evaluate
- Create 2D and 3D dimensions on cross-sections and selected regions
- Detect and inspect geometrical features such as spheres, planes, cones, cylinders, slots, holes and points
- Calculate size, analyze fit, compare 2D and 3D features, measure point-to-point and feature-to-feature distances and angles
- Create and evaluate GD&T callouts with full control over report display
- Perform industry-specific analyses such as Gap & Flush
- Output detailed inspection reports with numeric inspection data, multiple views, notes and conclusions
- Design and customize inspection reports with powerful yet simple report designer
- Produce reports with fully interactive 3D models that can be viewed using Adobe Reader
- Automatically generate inspection reports in HTML, PDF, Microsoft Word and Excel formats
- Export CSV and Unicode data for trend analysis and SPC
Automate
- Automate the inspection process from alignment to the generation of inspection reports
