Hexagon Announces Integrated DataPage+ SPC Package
 NORTH
KINGSTOWN, RI, Jan 6, 2010 - Hexagon Metrology announces the release of
DataPage+, a completely new version of the long-running DataPage product,
which provides seamless integration with PC-DMIS, the de facto standard
measuring software. DataPage+ provides meaningful, actionable and timely
feedback to the shop floor to reduce waste, eliminate bottlenecks and
streamline manufacturing processes. This results in measurable savings in
time, resources and money.
Features of DataPage+ software, which was completely rewritten for this
release, include an industry standard SQL Express database format, seamless
integration with PC-DMIS to pass inspection data to DataPage+, a full
complement of run charts, histograms, and a powerful optional feature that
integrates CAD data into a customizable, interactive report format.
“The CAD integration in DataPage+ is its most unique feature,” said Ping
Fang, product manager for DataPage+ at Wilcox Associates, Inc. “It’s natural
that PC-DMIS, the leading CAD-based metrology software, would spawn a
CAD-based SPC reporting package. This is similar to the Dataview
feature from the prior version of DataPage, which showed a static wireframe
CAD view with corresponding flags to the measured features. The new
version takes this CAD-integrated reporting concept several steps further,
allowing the user to rotate and zoom a solid representation of the CAD model
live within the report, reorganize the data flags and select what type of
data they display. It’s taking what was once a static presentation of
data and making it dynamic and interactive.”
“This first release of DataPage+ concentrates primarily on the small to
medium business customer that needs a robust SPC package with market-leading
features to attach to their measuring device, such as CMM, laser tracker or
portable arm,” said Ken Woodbine, president of Wilcox Associates, Inc.,
developer of PC-DMIS and DataPage+. “In 2010 Wilcox Associates will
release a complementary version of DataPage+ specifically designed around
enterprise and supply-chain level workflows.”
DataPage+ will be available initially in English and Chinese, with more
languages to be released in 2010. More information can be found on
