PC-DMIS Vision - bringing CAD to vision inspection
PC-DMIS Vision reduces the time spent developing inspection programs by up to 75%.
PC-DMIS was the first CMM software to integrate CAD into the
measurement process. It has a sophisticated set of tools crafted to
ease the job of developing, debugging and executing measurement
program. Wilcox Associates has adapted these capabilities and added
powerful new ones to meet the unique requirements of vision metrology.
CMM users typically report reductions of between 50% and 75% in the
time spent generating measurement routines. Now, users of vision
machines can expect the same.
PC-DMIS Vision links 3D CAD to specific vision metrology systems.
Vision Metrologists work directly with CAD models, including solids, in
developing, debugging and editing vision programs. During program
execution, the software compares the measured data to the CAD
nominals. Because it works with true 3D models, PC-DMIS Vision allows
users to measure 3D features on vision systems.
PC-DMIS Vision makes off-line programming a reality.
Users can develop and prove their inspection programs off-line while
leaving their measurement machine free for inspection. Users select
geometry and define program parameters by pointing and clicking on a
CAD model. There’s no need to do a lot of typing and, because PC-DMIS
Vision automatically extracts information from the model, it eliminates
a major source of programming errors.
PC-DMIS Vision accurately simulates camera views and lighting.
When programming on either the machine or off-line users, have full
control over system parameters like lighting and magnification.
PC-DMIS Vision has the unique capability to reproduce precisely what
the camera will see as it measures a part. When simulating program
execution, programmers can switch between a CAD view and a virtual
camera view, which actually changes in step with the inspection
program.
PC-DMIS Vision makes editing inspection programs easy.
Historically, editing vision programs has been a chore. Just making
simple c hanges was cumbersome at best. If anything significant had to
be done, it was easier just to rewrite the program. Neither
alternative was acceptable. PC-DMIS Vision changes all that. It has a
sophisticated set of editing tools developed in response to the needs
of our users. With them, it's a simple matter to modify inspection
routines.
PC-DMIS Vision is available both as original equipment and as a retrofit for a
wide range of Mycrona measurement systems. To learn more Click Here.
