Verisurf to Add GagePlate System in Master3DGage for Large CMMs
ANAHEIM,
CA, Sep 13, 2010 - Verisurf today unveiled the GagePlate system - a major innovation that
dramatically expands the capabilities of the Master3DGage portable rapid 3D
inspection solution. Quality engineers can now use the affordable Master3DGage
to inspect large parts without sacrificing accuracy.
Master3DGage integrates a six-axis portable CMM with Verisurf’s advanced 3D
Model-Based GD&T inspection software. This complete solution delivers a precise,
fully automated digital process to inspect directly to CAD models anywhere on
the shop floor and is as accurate as any portable CMM arm.
“Adding the new GagePlate System to the Master3DGage enables Quality
engineers to inspect much larger parts for a fraction of the cost of larger
portable or stationary CMMs,” said Ernie Husted, president of Verisurf.
“Master3DGage’s light weight, stable base, battery power and WiFi connectivity
make it easy to move around and ideal for inspecting large parts placed on the
GagePlate.”
The GagePlate system automates realignment of the Master3DGage around large
parts under inspection, while referencing one coordinate system. The precision
calibrated plate rapidly scales and aligns the Master3DGage, enabling the
inspection of large parts without the accumulative errors associated with
leapfrogging or costs associated with large-scale CMMs.
Master3DGage software can also precisely compensate for temperature-related
measurement variation. It automatically scales and compensates the known CTE
(coefficient of thermal expansion) of the part under inspection with the CTE of
the calibrated GagePlate.
