[NDT] New Product Information: VGSTUDIO MAX 2022.1
VGSTUDIO MAX is an industry standard CT data analysis and visualization software which is used by many X-ray CT inspection system users regardless of the machine brand.
What’s New in VGSTUDIO MAX 2022.1
Adaptive Measurement Templates:
There are often some parts which are strongly distorted, especially injection molding or 3D printed parts. In VGSTUDIO MAX 2022.1, the nominal CAD data and scanned parts data can be aligned even with these distorted or warped shapes thanks to a new patented technology, Adaptive Measurement Templates. The measurement plans which are created using the nominal CAD data or imported via PMI are applied to the optimal positions on the actual part and perfectly follow the distorted shape. Adaptive Measurement Templates will contribute a great time saving for the inspection process. In order to grasp the feature of Adaptive Measurement Templates in more detail, please refer to the following video.
Let’s Take a Quick Look at Adaptive Measurement Templates
