(Hexagon Metrology: North Kingstown, RI) -- Hexagon Metrology Inc. has launched enhanced releases of PC-DMIS 2012 MR1, the popular metrology software, and DataPage+ 2012 Statistical Process Control (SPC) software. Both programs offer new tools and improved features for inspection and measurement applications. PC-DMIS is used by the metrology industry for the collecting, evaluating, managing, and presenting manufacturing data to reduce scrap, improve throughput, reduce costs, and build lean manufacturing operations.

New PC-DMIS release advances inspection process

PC-DMIS 2012 MR1 offers improved model-based definition support resulting in ultra-efficient point-and-click measurement plans. A user can import a CAD model with embedded dimensional data into PC-DMIS, activate the ClearanceCube function, then click on a feature control frame and watch as the software automatically builds inspection plan features and dimensions. Productivity increases exponentially when the Path Optimizer feature is applied.

The new Custom Probe utility in PC-DMIS 2012 MR1 streamlines the configuration of nonstandard probes for measurement planning, from a custom stylus to a complex, hand-built probe cluster. A simple graphical interface guides the process and displays the results in real time. With one mouse click, the custom setup can be exported to IGES and is ready for any supplier to produce to proper specifications.
