CMM Manager-  Metrology software for manual and portable inspection

CMM Manager supports tactile measurements using portable CMMs such as articulated arm and K-Series Optical CMM. With a user interface featuring large icons for better visibility, the CMM Manager is a highly intuitive, easy-to-use metrology software for inspection tasks at the shop floor covering a wide range of measurement volumes. Beside the rich, inherent functionalities for CNC and manual fixed-bed CMMs, CMM Manager contains also smart features for portable arm measurements.



FINETUNED FOR PORTABLE INSPECTION

CMM-Manager’s intuitive user interface makes handheld tactile measurement quick and easy. The software offers numerous time-saving features that overcome the need to run back and forth between test part and laptop. Large intuitive icons and messages displayed in large fonts provide clear guidance and highlight relevant measurement feedback. 

Extremely powerful is the fact that inspection programs created for CNC machines can be seamlessly run on manual CMMs, without any program editing.

CMM-MANAGER & ARTICULATED ARMS: A POWERFUL COMBINATION

Tightly integrated with Metris MCA 6 and 7-axis articulated arms, CMM Manager guides the user through every measurement task. CMM-Manager also supports popular articulated arms such as FARO, Cimcore, Romer, Microscribe,etc

K-SERIES SPACEPROBE FOR LARGE WORK PIECES

The K-Series Optical CMM with SpaceProbe allows measurements in a working volume up to 17m3 in a range from 1,5 to 6m. As such complete vehicles can be easily measured in one track.

LEAP-FROGGING TO EXTEND WORKING VOLUME

In case the workpiece exceeds the available  working volume, CMM-Manager supports moving or flipping the work piece during the measurement process. This function enables an portable arm operator to measure workpieces larger than the working volume of the measurement system.

GUIDED PLANE MEASUREMENT FOR 2D FEATURE MEASUREMENT

This feature enables the operator to setup a guide plane with specified tolerance zone when measuring a 2D feature with a portable CMM. Measurement points will be taken when the probe crosses the selected guide plane and within the specified tolerance zone.

GUIDED MEASUREMENT FOR TACTILE SCANNING

The operator can select a guidance feature such as a plane, line, cylinder, cone, sphere or a CAD surface with a specified tolerance zone when measuring a point cloud with a portable CMM. Measurement points will be taken when the probe crosses the selected guidance feature and within the specified tolerance zone.

AUDIO / VISUAL GUIDANCE

With this new feature, the user can setup a tolerance zone and CMM Manager will change audio tone and color depending whether the probe is inside or outside the specified tolerance zone when the watch window is open.
