Verisurf 2018 Measurement Software

Verisurf Software Inc. announced Verisurf 2018, the latest release of its popular measurement software for automated quality inspection, reporting, scanning, reverse engineering, tool building and assembly guidance. The new release includes many new features, all of which are centered around three key user benefits: Universal CMM compatibility, quick programming shortcuts and productivity features, and increased probing speed.

Universal CMM compatibility – All CMMs, including previously closed legacy systems, are now open to Verisurf users; streamlining productivity, training and ensuring manufacturing enterprise compatibility. Expanded Verisurf CMM support does not require controller upgrades or added software, the legacy CMM data is translated allowing the operator to take full advantage of the Verisurf user interface, data management and reporting functionality. This allows legacy CMMs to immediately become relevant once again as part of an enterprise-wide measurement plan.

Added programming shortcuts and productivity features – Including automatic feature recognition, which allows any CAD feature to be selected and immediately added to an inspection plan; quick measurement of torus shapes for parts such as O-rings; ability to use the probe shaft for measuring thin edges, such as sheet metal; improved mesh editing and added mesh Boolean controls for combining and dissecting meshes with intersecting geometry.

Report Manager – Management reporting is a key deliverable from Verisurf Software; added features in 2018 now make producing and delivering reports quicker and easier: Dynamic Datum Reference Frame (DRF) allows the user to create datum alignments in the report manager using measured features; Auto DRF is accessed through the Report Manager Speed Menu and quickly sets up the most common reports utilizing single data reference frames; New drag and drop custom report builder is ideal for creating reports for measurement projects.

Increase in I++ CMM probing speed – Feature and Analysis objects have been synchronized for smooth, fast execution, using Verisurf VDI 3.43.18 or newer. This delivers an exponential increase in automatic probing speeds, reducing inspection time.

Windows Interface - The Verisurf User Interface (UI) continues to evolve in alignment with popular Windows standards. Easy to read icons and enhanced “tool tips” streamline workflows and make applications easy to navigate and learn.

There are many more added-features and enhancements in the new Verisurf 2018 release, which can be viewed in the product Release Notes found on the company’s website.
