Complete Digital Inspection

With Metris’ (www.metris.com; Levin, Belgium) new Focus Scan 5.1 and Inspection 9.1 software, designers are able to completely digitally inspect a product on a computer screen without a physical prototype. A fully featured software suite for point cloud data acquisition and inspection, Focus Scan 5.1 and Inspection 9.1 is easy to learn yet provides experienced users with  full functionality. The software streamlines the digital inspection process by avoiding manual entry of dimensions and tolerances, leading to less mistakes and wasted time. Once the model is loaded onto the computer, the designer is free to inspect, alter and even virtually assemble the part so that fabrication issues are resolved prior to production.
