Dimensional inspection is key to implementing long-term solutions for manufacturing process issues. Despite robust quality control, issues may arise post-delivery. Leveraging historical 3D measurements is a game changer, facilitating quick issue identification, planning repairs, enhancing future designs, and safeguarding against the financial risks of warranty claims.
Discover how manufacturing companies can gradually deploy the PolyWorks 3D metrology digital ecosystem to avoid disturbing operations and obtain efficiency gains at every step of their digital transformation journey.
Discover how to perform multipiece feature-based inspections without a usable CAD representation more efficiently, with probing guidance plus feature scanning guidance and automatic feature extraction, thanks to the measurement guides technology introduced in PolyWorks|Inspector™ 2022.
Discover how to optimize collision-free 3-axis CNC CMM measurement sequences for the Renishaw PH20 probe head by incorporating 5-axis moves and "head touch” probing.
See how measurement operators can execute probing workflows more efficiently by displaying guidance arrows, measurement instructions, probed points, and common probing functionalities before their eyes using the Microsoft HoloLens smart glasses and PolyWorks|AR™ 2022.
Discover how to efficiently perform a multipiece dimensional analysis on complex geometries using PolyWorks|Inspector™ controlling powerful Hexagon SLS scanners and turntables.
Discover how manufacturing companies can perform root cause analyses of urgent dimensional control issues significantly faster by accessing 3D metrology data and results in real time with PolyWorks|DataLoop™.
Custom bent tube and rod forms need to be measured to conform to the design callout from engineering drawings or tables. In addition, there is a need to document tubes and rods that have been created in the field, or highly modified for fit and function, as 3D models that can be imported into CAD software. Both the measurement and the CAD-creation operations can be realized easily using the free PolyWorks|Inspector™ macro, IMTube.
Inspecting thin parts made of sheet metal, plastic, or composite material poses a variety of challenges, whether you are using touch-probing or noncontact digitizing measurement tools. PolyWorks® offers a set of tools that facilitate thin part inspection as well as an application mode that presets values so your measurements are made with optimal parameters.
