FARO Announces BuildIT 2019 for Mfg, Construction

FARO has announced the release of the advanced BuildIT 2019 software suite. BuildIT 2019 represents the logical evolution of the industry-proven BuildIT platform, which has provided exceptional value across a variety of industries. It offers three individual products each specifically designed for the most challenging quality inspection, manufacturing and assembly or construction applications. Each product includes the most flexible and intuitive user interface in the industry.

FARO BuildIT Metrology Software is ideal for inspection, build and alignment applications.

While the BuildIT 2019 solution suite is tightly integrated with FARO hardware products to enable a best-in-class FARO solution experience, it also enables consistent, high-quality outcomes for non-FARO hardware products.

FARO BuildIT Metrology 2019 performs inspections on parts and assemblies including CAD-to-Part color deviation analysis.

BuildIT Metrology 2019

BuildIT Metrology 2019 elevates the standard for workflow optimization and productivity for alignment, inspection, and build applications by incorporating key customer learnings from the previous generation that include:

  • Point cloud alignment and registration up to 10 times faster and file size reduction for analyses by up to 70%
  • Improved robustness of GD&T evaluation using feature-specific extraction settings for analysis
  • Dynamic reporting that automatically pre-populates analysis reports and reduces report preparation time.
  • Advanced automation capabilities for creating repeatable, guided, automated workflows

FARO BuildIT Projector Software and the FARO Tracer SI Imaging Laser Projector can indicate the presence of Foreign Object Debris (FOD) during a post-assembly inspection.

BuildIT Projector 2019 

BuildIT Projector 2019 allows manufacturers to plan and operate imaging laser projection and verification workflows to improve the quality and speed of assembly processes. Together with the FARO TracerSI Imaging Laser Projector, it is a core component of the first and only all-in-one solution for laser-assisted templating and verification.

Included standard in the first generation were groundbreaking features as In-Process Verification, Feature-Based Alignment, and Foreign Object & Debris Detection. BuildIT Projector 2019 enhances these features to create a completely new, operator-friendly paradigm that includes:

  • Report generation that clearly identifies completed tasks and the results of In-Process Verification.
  • Automatic re-alignment of the laser projector where BuildIT Projector detects that the base part has moved
  • A more intuitive user experience through a variety of enhancements including setup and operation through a joystick controller

FARO BuildIT Construction Software is ideal for ensuring continuous quality control on construction sites.

BuildIT Construction 2019

The previous generation version of BuildIT was the first consolidated software and hardware solution designed from the ground up as an end-to-end, fully integrated Building Lifecycle Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) management tool. BuildIT 2019 offers a unique set of value added enhancements that include:

  • A comprehensive Tank Analysis Package to determine and identify critical issues in the plant facility that support faster modification and renovation
  • Significant reduction in on-site cycle time from laser scan projection data preparation to 3D visualization
  • Streamlined raw scan import process with Scan Import feature that automatically detects targets and facilitates faster alignment with the software
  • Numerous other workflow efficiency improvements that include file size reduction, faster rendering and clipping box functionality
