WESTEC
The Manufacturing Technology Series West takes place in Anaheim, California — a manufacturing hotbed located close to the No. 1 shipping port in the United States, the Port of Los Angeles. Manufacturers in California account for 12.32% of the total output in the state and employ 7.55% of the workforce. Total output from manufacturing was $394.83 billion in 2021. The high-growth West Coast region is responsible for $460 billion in manufacturing output per year and is home to more than 2.2 million manufacturing jobs across a diverse range of industries.
Verisurf is featuring the following technologies at this year’s WESTEC.
CMM Programming – Productive for All Skill Levels
CMM programming right inside a full CAD/CAM system. Use the same software for your CMM paths that is used for CNC milling machine paths. This is not a rudimentary add-on, it is a high-powered, full-functioning CMM software that programs and operates all brands and types of CMMs, including 5-axis systems. Verisurf replaces many legacy OEM software packages that were designed “old-school” requiring lots of training and expertise to learn complex coding and text editing.
Portable CMM First Article & In-Process Inspection
See how you can vastly improve your first article and in-process inspection jobs in less time and complexity.
The solution also requires considerably less training and experience from the system operators, while minimizing the pre-inspection preparation and setup time.
Shopfloor Automated Inspection
The Verisurf CMM Master is an optimized Renishaw® Equator™ automated gauging system upgraded with Verisurf software and volumetric error compensation mapping. This creates a shopfloor CMM that maintains the efficiency of comparator mode but eliminates the extensive mastering process that requires baseline runs on a separate CMM.
Large Volume Field and Industrial Machinery Measurement
Optimize your unique large-volume jobs with modern laser tracker technology and Verisurf software. Do things with one operator that many have to do with two.
Automate the whole process with extremely intuitive, graphical electronic work instructions (program plans) that are a must when you have to work far from the device and computer workstation.
Increased Productivity, 5-Axis CMM Efficiency
Take advantage of the productivity improvements that 5-axis CMMs have to offer. Verisurf adds unique path patterns, programming, and editing features to help users realize a rapid return on their 5-axis investment. Five-axis provides reduced setup time, fewer requirements for special fixturing, and less probe qualification time. Verisurf special features for 5-axis adds even more opportunities for process efficiency and control.
3D Scanning Inspection & Reverse Engineering
Verisurf optimizes both the scanning process and post-processing workflows for both reverse engineering and inspection. Inspection includes automated workflows, automatic feature extraction, full model-based GD&T, and support for all scanning devices. Reverse engineering includes mesh creation, cleanup, filtering, optimization, registration/alignment, and full CAD-supported parametric modeling.
In these days when many manufacturing enterprises are seeing great staffing challenges, our experts can get you up and running quickly and then will support you through the path to excellence.
