Designers in need of a tool to create measurement routines directly from 2D files
About OGP Elements
Elements® is a 2D CAD-based metrology software, ideal for measuring parts with very high feature density. It creates measurement routines directly from 2D CAD files with ease. It then automatically optimizes measurement paths to ensure data is gathered as quickly as possible. The Elements advantage lies in handling vast numbers of discrete features quickly and efficiently. CAD import formats include DXF, Gerber, as well as CSV location lists. Advanced review mode allows the user to visually inspect specific features in real time after a run has been completed. The coarse alignment feature allows the positioning of finders to be updated in real time for more accurate measurements. Built-in analysis tools allow for quick and easy analysis of large data trends. These tools include scatter plots, histograms of dimensional values, and whisker plots showing deviation from nominal. Evaluate your measurement requirements and recommend the solution that best fits your needs.

Calibration Control
Use Calibration Control (CC) for Calibration, Maintenance, or general Asset Management. Quickly and visually track equipment that requires Calibration or Maintenance using customizable highlighted grids, auto emails, or reports. Maintain histories with audit trails relating to equipment traceability, people, companies, related documents, attachments, certificates, & more.
Automate Calibration Control with custom or default barcode labels scanned by time-saver data entry dialogs to increase speed and traceability. Use the Report Designer for custom reports or modify existing reports.
ISO, FDA, & ANSI quality systems use CC to maintain compliance and effortlessly communicate that compliance to auditors and internal customers. Although CC grew up in a Manufacturing environment, it is also used in other industries like Metrology Services, Health Care, Aviation/Aerospace, Mining, Testing, Maintenance, Designer Engineering, Oil Wells, Distribution, Packaging, and others.

Renishaw MODUS
Renishaw's MODUS software provides a powerful platform for 5‑axis measurement. A configurable user interface allows native DMIS programs to be developed offline, drawing geometry, embedded dimensions, and tolerance data from CAD, with full simulation. The software includes certified algorithms for feature measurement, feature construction, and part alignment. Programs can be created offline directly from CAD with on-screen probe path verification. The CMM environment, the fixture, and the location of the part on the machine can all be defined, enabling full simulation of 5‑axis measurement programs. This minimizes CMM downtime as programs arrive at the machine ready to run, with little or no prove-out time required. The reporting capability of MODUS is extensive, including traditional CMM text reports with comprehensive user-defined formatting. Graphical reporting enables results to be displayed against the CAD model, including whisker charts or 3D form plotting for many features.
