Automated Metrology for Optimized Manufacturing Processes From CAD Data to Precise 3D Measurement in Just One Click Automated Metrology for Your Shop Floor with MetMaX Enhance Quality Assurance with MetMaX Metrology Software for Maximum Precision and Efficiency Optimize your manufacturing processes with automated metrology from Bruker Alicona. With the smart 3D metrology software MetMaX, it's a breeze: simply upload your part's CAD data, select the desired GD&T or PMI features, and MetMaX takes care of the rest! MetMaX's user-friendly design empowers users to maximize the measurement system's potential without needing specialized metrology or user knowledge. The expertise for optimal 3D data capture and analysis is built into the software. Enhance the quality assurance of your components and integrate Bruker Alicona's automated metrology into your manufacturing process. Boost your efficiency, save time, and improve your production precision with the automated metrology software MetMaX! How Automated Metrology Works: MetMaX Simply Explained Step1 & 2: A dimensioned technical drawing of a component to be tested and the CAD data of the component to be measured are uploaded to MetMaX and aligned. Step 3: The user selects which GD&T or PMI (Product Manufacturing Information) characteristics are to be measured at the click of a mouse. Step 4: MetMaX automatically selects the appropriate measuring strategy for 3D measurement of the component. The measuring software automatically calculates probing directions (from above or sideways), tilt and rotation angles as well as travel paths in XYZ. Before the measurement is started, a virtual simulation ensures a collision-free measurement process. The Measurement starts with a click from the operator, then runs fully automated! Step 5: Once the component has been measured in 3D, the 3D data is also evaluated automatically. If, for example, shape deviations are to be determined, the measuring device with MetMaX decides independently which geometric shape (cylinder, plane, sphere, etc.) must be fitted. A reporting system provides i.O./n.i.O. information. Automated Metrology: MetMaX Empowers Manufacturing Integrated 3D environment: Develop and visualize your measurement plans effortlessly. Virtual Test Environment: Use the digital twin for risk-free simulations. Automatic Measurement & Evaluation: Save time with automated, accurate reports. Unique AI Component: Master demanding measurements with state-of-the-art artificial intelligence.
