Tips & Tricks
Using the navigation options to perform better HandyPROBE demos
TRUaccuracy is definitely the main feature to showcase when doing a HandyPROBE demo, but it may not be quick to demonstrate in VXelements. Visualization tools can be used to facilitate the demonstration of some of the key features defining TRUaccuracy.
Two underutilized, but very useful features
2 very useful features, Optimize Surface and Optimize Model, have been included since the release of VXscan, several years ago. Even if these are still part of VXelements, they are actually not been used, or they are underused because people don’t know them or think that they are time-consuming.
Using the Mechanical Damage module to assess pipe ovality.
Use the Mechanical Damage module to assess pipe ovality. Many people seem to forget that the Mechanical Damage module is not only useful for extracting depths readings. Enhancements have been made in the mechanical damage report, table explanations… Drawings are now more intuitive than ever!
VXelements 2.0 Useful Features
As some of you may already know, some useful improvements are now available on VXelements 2.0.
Measuring in line with the HandyPROBE CMM
Creaform got asked to take up quite a challenge: using a HandyPROBE to execute measurements directly on the production line. Here’s how Creaform managed to succeed...
Measuring directly on the shop floor with TRUaccuracy
Over the past 30 years, one of the most important changes in metrology has been the development of portable measuring devices like arms or laser trackers. This has brought inspection right into the production line, as close to the part as possible.
