Verisurf Software, Inc. announced its new device support for the Renishaw PH20, 5-axis probe-head. Verisurf customers running the PH20 currently or planning to retrofit their CNC CMMs will realize the power of Verisurf automated inspection software with the full potential of 5-axis probing. Inspection cycle times are reduced by as much as 3X when probing in 5-axis, compared to traditional indexing heads, without sacrificing accuracy.
Verisurf software, Auto Inspect panel and feature balloons present real-time deviations of measured features compared to the CAD nominal.
“Accuracy, speed, flexibility, and overall efficiency are key factors in measurement solutions. Verisurf software controls measurements from virtually any CMM, a process that is limited only by the mechanical capabilities of the machine. The Renishaw PH20 probe-head is very accurate, and through enhanced motion control, improved touch-trigger, and calibration technology, it allows our software to do more, faster,” said Ernie Husted, President and CEO of Verisurf.
Verisurf software maximizes the capabilities of the PH20, 5-axis probe-head, which reduces the movement of the CMM structure, and eliminates time indexing the head. Measurements can be taken faster with improved accuracy and repeatability.
Verisurf CMM programming software and the PH20 5-axis probe-head are used to maximize inspection throughput on new or existing CMMs with Renishaw controls. In addition to the enhanced measurement data collection, Verisurf software CAD model-based productivity features speed up the quality inspection and reporting process. Easy object-oriented CMM programming tools quickly create automatic inspection and quality reporting routines, and during inspection, an Auto Inspect panel and feature balloons present real-time deviations of measured features compared to the CAD nominal.
