BMW Rosslyn in Pretoria, South Africa, has integrated Creaform’s HandyPROBE arm-free and portable probing system into its manufacturing process and plant. The car manufacturer has equipped the Quality Control Department of its BMW 3 series product site with the solution.
 
WENZEL Metromec, a Swiss company that makes quality inspection software, has developed an interface between the HandyPROBE and its Metrosoft CM inspection software. Thanks to this new gateway, BMW was able to maintain its existing Metrosoft CM inspection programs and keep on using known inspection functionalities while improving their inspection process output through Creaforms TRUaccuracy technology, which ensures accurate measurements regardless of the surrounding environment or vibrations.
