GOM Inspect 2019 remains a powerful, versatile, and essential tool for professionals in the metrology field. Its ability to bridge the gap between complex 3D scanning technology and actionable quality reports makes it an invaluable asset for industries that require high precision and speed.
Position tolerances in maximum material condition (MMC) and least material condition (LMC). Datum systems with modifiers. Enhanced Usability and Customization
For automated inspection cells, the 2019 VMR engine offered better robot path planning and collision detection. For new users, GOM provided extensive resources, including
GOM Inspect 2019 acts as a virtual coordinate measuring machine (CMM) that transforms 3D scan data into actionable inspection results. The typical workflow includes:
A central highlight of the 2019 release was the introduction of a set of new functions called designed to optimize automated measurement workflows. In the virtual measuring room (VMR) used for programming automated systems like the ATOS ScanBox, the "Smart Teach" function simplifies the creation and maintenance of measurement programs. It allows measurement positions to be automatically updated whenever there is a change in the CAD data or individual elements of the part being measured. This feature dramatically reduces the time required for reprogramming when part designs evolve.
Performs comprehensive Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing checks, including flatness, cylindricity, and position. Automatically aligns the scan data to the CAD
: Establishes local coordinate systems based on physical features.
A comprehensive viewer and basic mesh processing tool widely used for sharing and checking results.
