Verisurf has unveiled the GagePlate system, which is designed to expand the capabilities of the Master3DGage portable rapid 3D inspection solution. Quality engineers can now use the affordable Master3DGage to inspect large parts without sacrificing accuracy.

Master3DGage integrates a six-axis portable CMM with Verisurf’s 3D Model-Based GD&T inspection software. This complete solution delivers a precise, fully automated digital process to inspect directly to CAD models anywhere on the shop floor, according to the company. Verisurf says it's as accurate as any portable CMM arm.

“Adding the new GagePlate System to the Master3DGage enables Quality engineers to inspect much larger parts for a fraction of the cost of larger portable or stationary CMMs,” says Ernie Husted, president of Verisurf. “Master3DGage’s light weight, stable base, battery power and Wi-Fi connectivity make it easy to move around and ideal for inspecting large parts placed on the GagePlate.”

The GagePlate system automates realignment of the Master3DGage around large parts under inspection, while referencing one coordinate system. The precision calibrated plate rapidly scales and aligns the Master3DGage, enabling the inspection of large parts.
