Verisurf Unveils Master3DGage Rapid 3D Inspection Solution

By DE Editors

Verisurf Software, Inc. and select Mastercam resellers have introduced Master3DGage, a portable rapid 3D inspection solution that enables machine shops to increase production and improve part quality. The complete hardware/software solution automates the 3D inspection process and verifies manufactured parts directly to 3D CAD models.

Master3DGage will be sold exclusively by select Mastercam resellers worldwide beginning March 31. It will be unveiled at the WESTEC Show in Los Angeles (Mastercam booth 2169) from March 23-25.

“For the first time, machine shops will have a precise 3D model-based Inspection system that can quickly verify parts directly on a CNC machine or anywhere else in the manufacturing process,” says Tom Shelar, president of CAD/CAM Consulting, a Mastercam reseller. “Implementing portable inspection into the manufacturing process identifies issues quicker, reduces scrap, and significantly improves productivity.”

Master3DGage integrates a Hexagon Metrology six-axis Portable CMM with Verisurf’s 3D model-based inspection software. This complete solution delivers a fully automated digital process to inspect directly to CAD models anywhere on the shop floor. First article inspections are completed in minutes, according to the companies.

The Master3DGage rapid inspection process is designed to improve manufacturing productivity by eliminating dependence on 2D drawings, eliminating the need to route products to fixed inspection areas, and complete a fully digital workflow.
