Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence has launched PC-DMIS 2016. PC-DMIS 2016 offers overall performance improvements and enhancements for measurement strategies and complex inspection tasks. CAD and graphics improvements help users take full advantage of embedded GD&T, offering one-click inspection routine generation and added validation functionality to notify the inspector of possible problems in the model before they become actual problems in the measurement process.

A new section cut tool is ideal for sheet metal, aerospace and medical applications, or anywhere that surfaces require fast and reliable measurements based on fixed cross-sectional relationships to a coordinate system. PC-DMIS 2016 also makes it easier for users to get cross-section data quickly by moving the pointer along a section cut to see deviations in real time and clicking on any spot that needs reporting.

Application performance has been optimized for speeding up everyday tasks like opening and executing measurement routines, copy and paste, and report printing. Feature-based measurement and mini-routines options have been simplified, making them faster and easier to use. Also, new path line options allow the user to assign different colors to path lines to differentiate between moves, probe rotations, and hit points providing quick reference and easier adjustments. A new measurement strategy editor offers customizable parameter values for each feature type to use when importing inspection plans or create a Quick Features.

PC-DMIS 2016 is available to download immediately. More information is available through local Hexagon commercial operations and dealers.
