Automated Scan Data Alignment To Axis Datums

Automated Scan Data Alignment to Axis Datums

Streamline the processing of large scanned datasets saving time and money.

Automatic Fit and Align From Axis-Type Datum Targets

With Full Control Over Fit and Degree-of-Freedom Parameters

Verisurf improves the accuracy of non-contact scan data alignment through enhancements to Auto Align. When circle or slot targets are used with a cloud or mesh to align data to a model, Verisurf fits an inscribed feature through the nearest points sampled evenly around the circumference.

The calculated center point of the inscribed feature is then used for the alignment. These enhancements improve the accuracy of Auto Align in every workflow, including device alignment, reporting, and automation. Point, cloud, and mesh data for Auto Align can be selected in the data tree.

When Auto Align is used in a plan, the scan data can be specified using the Set Selection button in the Automate Set Command dialog.

If the scan data is not pre-selected, Verisurf prioritizes data in the order: points, then meshes, then clouds.

This facilitates using a single inspection plan to analyze imported scan data. When Auto Aligned results are saved as an Analysis object, Verisurf now exports the fitted feature objects along with the graphical results of the cloud or mesh alignment analysis. This information facilitates reporting and traceability.
