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_jkl1463.jpghanges 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.

PC-DMIS Vision is now available as plug & play retrofit package for all standard, PC-based OGP Measurement Systems.  To learn more, click here.
