New PC-DMIS 4.3 metrology software supports rotary tables and eliminates the potential for costly probe crashes.

Wilcox Associates (North Kingstown, RI), a Hexagon Metrology Company, announced PC-DMIS V4.3, which incorporates dozens of new or enhanced features to extend CMM measurement and reporting capabilities and improve programming productivity.

Version 4.3 of PC-DMIS, metrology software for Coordinate Measurement Machines (CMMs), builds on the concept of Enterprise Metrology Solutions (EMS) by introducing modules that streamline the job of programming and extend the software's capabilities to other types of measurement equipment, thus offering a common software solution for varying metrology requirements.

Some of the advancements are new dimensions, automated dimensioning, expanded fitting capabilities, alignment function, flexible editing capabilities, new construction functions, enhanced probe handling, graphics and display facilities, extensions to program simulation routines, full support for Laser Tracker technology, expanded rotary table and sensor support, and enhanced reporting capabilities.

PC-DMIS can be used to upgrade all brands of Non-Hexagon CMMs.
