Posted: February 5, 2016

The sophisticated algorithms and calculation methods used by VXinspect 3D inspection software from AMETEK Creaform offer an accessible way to apply GD&T principles and practices to inspection projects. The intuitive software includes all of the tools for first article inspection and quality control, and provides simple integration for contact (probing) and non-contact (scanning) measurement in numerous manufacturing applications.

The Shop-Floor Workstation and C-Track Shop-Floor Stand from AMETEK Creaform provide efficient access and mobility for portable 3D inspection devices, including HandyPROBE, MetraSCAN 3D and HandySCAN 3D. Easy and intuitive sequence management allows users to build inspection programs that control critical dimensions at various stages of manufacturing. (first view)

AMETEK Creaform (Lévis, QC) introduces VXinspect, a powerful and intuitive 3D inspection software that includes all of the tools for first article inspection (FAI) and quality control. VXinspect provides simple integration for contact (probing) and non-contact (scanning) measurement in numerous manufacturing applications. Its intuitive interface assures efficient inspection workflow with no compromise in measurement quality or geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) requirements. This dimensional inspection software is designed to be used in combination with the company’s HandyPROBE, MetraSCAN 3D and HandySCAN 3D portable measurement devices and features all of the functionalities required to set up a high-efficiency measurement sequence to inspect multiple parts.

VXinspect supports rapid part-to-CAD inspections for pre-production adjustments and production part approval to control critical part dimensions. It is fully integrated intp VXelements, the Creaform 3D software platform and application suites. Creaform also has released two products to enhance performance and reliability of its dimensional inspection solutions on the shop floor:

The Shop-Floor Workstation is a dedicated work and secure storage unit offering increased mobility with on-the-go access to 3D scanning, probing and photogrammetry systems.
The C-Track Shop-Floor Stand facilitates the mobility of the C-Track dual-camera sensors around the part to be inspected.
