PAS ILM 3.0 Available

PAS Technology has released PAS ILM 3.0, the latest version of its inspection lifecycle management software. The system provides file preparation from any CAD model (or even a PDF), inspection automation for any CMM machine, and planning and reporting automation, including FAI.

All three steps are integrated (or can be stand-alone), automated, and eliminate any translation or interpretation, the company says, performing the work in just minutes.

PAS ILM is fluid with native CAD files like SolidWorks, CATIA, NX, and PRO-E, but can also use standard data interfaces like IGES or STEP along with a PDF drawing. PAS ILM automatically converts all CAD data to a complete CMM program. It contains all available inspection characteristics along with bi-directional ballooning automation and automatically populates a custom FAI report.

All inspection requirements and characteristics are already analyzed and stored in PAS ILM. The solution will write out the code to a machine for any touch-trigger probe, including the PH-20.
