Virtual DMIS quality data software gets dealer
Eley Metrology has been appointed as an accredited dealer for the metrology software Virtual DMIS, offering seamless collection, analysis, visualization and communication of quality data.
This new powerful, user-friendly and modular software includes ARCO QUICK, GRAPHIC and CAD, for use on manual or CNC, bridge type, cantilever and portable arm CMMs.
ARCO is a world class dimensional metrology software, an integrated solution for measuring prismatic parts as well as edges and free form surfaces, in manual, point-to-point and continuous scanning modes.
It is integrated with several leading controllers and can support 3D laser scanners.
Features include offline programming and simulation, and reverse engineering.
All phases of the inspection cycle are supported: from part programming to program debugging and final execution and reporting with statistics.
The inspection part programming language is DMIS, and all native CAD data formats are supported for model import, in addition to traditional neutral formats.
The ARCO engine fully supports the latest version of DMIS language; no translator is used because the DMIS code is directly executed.
The portability of all programs created with ARCO is guaranteed by the use of DMIS.
Graphical programming and reporting are assured by a proprietary geometric and graphic engine, able to connect original CAD file geometry with inspection data and alignments.
