Creaform Introduces C-Link for Faster Inspection

System includes TRUaccuracy technology for easier inspection of complex parts.

Creaform has introduced C-Link functionality as the latest improvement to its inspection systems. Through C-Link, it is possible to network up to 4 C-Tracks and operate them simultaneously with a HandyPROBE portable CMM or a MetraSCAN 3D optical CMM scanner.

The new functionality makes the inspection process of complex setups, jigs, tooling or prototype faster and easier than before. The solution features the TRUaccuracy technology, which generates guaranteed high accuracy results, no matter the measurement environment (instability, vibrations, thermal variation, etc.) or operator skills.

The solution can be used as a mobile measurement solution for complex set-ups, and allows the creation of fixed measurement rooms (virtual CMM with freedom of handheld probe/3D scanner). It can also be used for large or complex objects deformation analysis when used with Creaforms VXtrack software module.
