When using 3rd-party drivers you should contact your local Hexagon representative to ensure Operating Sytem compatibility.
PC-DMIS 2009 also continues to support Enterprise Metrology Solutions that expand upon the already full-featured functionality of PC-DMIS Pro, CAD, and CAD++. Listed below are additional packages available since PC-DMIS 3.7.
Established since version 3.5, this variation of PC-DMIS provides a simplified user interface designed for basic inspection but contains many available options for somewhat complex measuring needs.
Established since version 3.5, this variation of PC-DMIS is designed for working with imported CAD models to increase the ease of creating inspection programs as well as analyzing complex geometries.
Established since version 3.5, this variation is the most comprehensive version of PC-DMIS, containing the functionality of PC-DMIS CAD and Pro, along with Gear and Blade measuring package options.
PC-DMIS can be used in combination with supported laser probes to measure features on a part or to collect data. Laser probes allow you to easily and rapidly collect millions of points of data (called clouds of points). These clouds of points are then used within PC-DMIS for surface contour maps, export to reverse engineering packages, and creation of constructed features.
A true measuring package available for use on a computer controlled machining center for initial layout and setup inspections, first piece inspection, and even final inspection of machined parts.
A cornerstone of the Enterprise Metrology Solutions suite, the PC-DMIS Inspection planner is an evolutionary step towards bottom line time savings for inspection.
PC-DMIS Inspection planner is integrated directly within the CAD system to allow the CAD engineer to create a definition of features to inspect, datums to use, and the proper GD&T to apply. This electronic inspection plan can then be used throughout the entire inspection process making it a truly paperless task.
