Coordinate Measuring Systems Precision measuring technology in three dimensions Point Cloud Processing Software for Coordinate Measuring Machines MSURF • MSURF is a software program that enables users to perform operations from measurement to evaluation on the same platform when the non-contact line laser probe, SurfaceMeasure , is used. Eight software modules are provided according to the task.
MSURF-I
Calculates point cloud data measured by CNC CMM with SurfaceMeasure . It generates scanning paths by defining the scanning start position, length, and width. MSURF-S
Conducts analysis or comparison verification of measured point cloud data in reference to nominal data (supporting CAD data import).
Note: I ACR3 change rack enables automatic change of probes during CNC program execution thereby reducing measurement cycle time.

MSURF-MESH PRO This software is provided with various functions such as filtering point cloud data and mesh data. The software is enhanced by adding functions to standard ones. It also enables functions such as mesh data thinning-out, highlighting, interpolation and outlier removal that are unavailable as standard. Note: MSURF-MESH PRO has the optional functions of MSURF-I .
MSURF-G MSURF-G is the off-line version of MSURF-S . It allows users to create measurement programs in advance of actual measurements on a CMM by using CAD data. Therefore, users can start measurement immediately at the time a real workpiece is ready. Since MSURF-S is a standalone PC application, only requiring installation by the user, it helps preserve valuable CMM time exclusively for productive measurement. Note: MSURF-G cannot be combined with MSURF-S .
MSURF-PLANNER MSURF-PLANNER is software to automatically create measurement macros (surface form, feature form) for the line laser probe from 3D CAD data. Optimized data (travel path, number of probe head revolutions, etc.) of a measurement path will contribute to improvements in productivity.
