FARO's CAM2 Q Speeds & Simplifies Measurement

By DE Editors

FARO Technologies, Inc. (Lake Mary, FL) will release its all-new metrology software: CAM2 Q, which has been built with a CAD translator and the Parasolid CAD engine.

CAM2 Q can change/convert between different measurement units (inches, mm, microns, angstroms, etc.) or coordinate systems (cylindrical, polar, Cartesian, etc.) at any time without remeasuring. Users can define any number of units.

The all-new user interface is fully customizable, so users can create a work environment to meet their needs. Plus, CAM2 Q can add, change, or measure features at any time, in any order, so the project can flow logically as the task demands, without being restricted to a preset order of operation. A new reporting engine can create customized reports in Microsoft Word and Excel, HTML, and PDF.

Multiple users can now measure with multiple FaroArms and FARO Laser Trackers simultaneously — even on the same location. Every measured point can be viewed, deleted, or re-measured. Users don't have to start over if new features are added to a prototype.

Finally, users can quickly create, edit and run programs in the same window rather than opening a new application or separate screen. Also, CAM2 Q allows programmers to plan and record measurement/operation sequences that the software then programs as easy-to-follow, on-screen instructions for other users. Plus, CAM2 Q can be installed and ready to measure with FARO hardware right out of the box.
