MAC CAT-1006 FINAL

Coordinate Measuring Systems Precision measuring technology in three dimensions Automatic Measurement Program Generation Software MiCAT Planner One-click programming that changes the relationship between people and precision measurement

• Identifies tolerance information included in 3D models with Product and Manufacturing Information (PMI), defines the measurement plan and automatically creates a measurement program. For 3D CAD models without PMI, tolerance information may be added with MiCAT Planners fast tolerance assistant.

• With its optimization function, MiCAT Planner identifies the most efficient measurement path, minimizing probe repositioning and tool changes to deliver measurement programs in the shortest possible time. • Utilizing the rule editor function to set the measurement rules prevents variation in measurement quality between program writers.

Tolerance information add function Lets you add tolerances in the software for 3D CAD models without tolerance information. Automatically create optimal measuring programs based on the user added tolerance specifications.

Supported languages Available in 16 languages

CAD data with tolerances

CMM System configuration

User-defined measurement rules (number of locations to measure with tolerance information and sampling method, etc.,)

Example of sampling method: contact measurement

Example of sampling method: scanning measurement

Instantly and automatically creates a measurement program

Case study Compare the measurement part-programming time for a test piece. 1: Programming in 2D drawing: approx. 45 to 60 minutes 2: Programming using 2D drawing + 3D CAD: approx. 15 to 20 minutes 3: Create with MiCAT Planner (using 3D CAD model + PMI): approx. 3 minutes! Note: The measurement rules are defined in advance.
