YOUR ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE P Shrinkage and distortion correction For tool and die makers | Sophisticated functions and algorithms | Compensation of the formed or original components Nominal/actual value comparison The user transforms the measured data (scan data = P Comprehensive format support actual data) into the coordinate system of the reference Handling scan and CT data | Support of all common object (CAD data = target data), starts the analysis and scan, CAD, CT and CNC formats receives a deviation color map as result. The measureddeviations are displayed in a so-called deviation color map.P Extensive functions Measuring points can be taken directly from the analysis Creation of documents including presentation tools object and transferred to a measuring protocol.
