What Is Geomagic Control X for Scantech?
Geomagic Control X for Scantech(CXS) is a professional metrology software that lets you capture and process the data from Scantech’s 3D scanners to measure, understand, and communicate inspection results to ensure quality everywhere. With CXS, more people in your organization can:
- Measure faster
- Measure more completely
- Measure more often
- Measure anywhere
Easy to Learn
Don’t have time to become an expert in inspection software? CXS is for you. Start getting results with little or no training.
Quick to Use
CXS is flexible – it follows the way you work, not the other way around. And scan-native algorithms built on a CAD kernel make handling huge data sets fast and easy.
Born to Work with Scantech’s 3D Scanners
Get efficient and smooth 3D scanning with the software CXS designed from the ground up to work with Scantech’s 3D scanners.
Combine 3D Scans with T-Probe
Get the best of both worlds – noncontact scanning and contact probes – in one integrated software interface. Use LiveInspect™ to perform walk-up inspection or pre-planned inspection with graphical and audio guidance.
2D and 3D GD&T
With extensive Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing tools, you can analyze size, form, orientation, and location of features according to the ASME Y14.5M standard.
CXS measuresk
– Linear, angular, radial, elliptical, bore depth, counterbore, countersink, and thicknes
– Straightness, flatness, circularity, cylindricity, parallelism, perpendicularity, angularity, position, concentricity, symmetry, line profile, surface profile, runout, and total runout
What Can You Do with Geomagic Control X for Scantech?
Design for Manufacturability
Use CXS to check prototypes and address manufacturability issues such as deformation after molding or casting.
Don’t Just Find Problems, Fix Them
Any inspection software can show you where parts are out of spec. CXS integrates tightly with CAD and Geomagic Design X so you can update your 3D CAD models to compensate for any problems.
Identify and Resolve Manufacturing and Assembly Issues
Scanning provides a complete view of your parts. CXS gives you the tools and the flexibility to understand how and why a part may have issues and keep production on track.
Eliminate Costly Scrap and Rework
Empower more people to inspect incoming parts from suppliers to prevent defective parts from making it to assembly.
Assess Damage, Deformation or Wear Accurately and Consistently
Scanning reveals wear or deformation even in unanticipated places. CXS’s automated alignment and deviation analysis tools make it easy to locate and measure part wear.
Predict Part Failure Before It Happens
Monitor changes in a part’s geometry over time to catch unforeseen problems and take corrective action. CXS includes trend analysis and reporting, so you can predict when a part or tool might fail.
Predict Part Failure Before It Happens
CXS is so intuitive, you don’t have to be a highly trained or experienced metrologist to use it. Combined with the portability of 3D scanning, more people in the organization can leverage 3D scan-based inspection.
Improve Quality Documentation
3D scanning a part creates a complete digital record of all of its geometry. You can perform additional measurements at any time, even when the part is no longer physically present. Discover an issue six months from now? Just pull up the scan and check any dimension – no need to remeasure the part.
Ensure Quality Everywhere
Bring the power of 3D scan-based inspection to more people in more places with software that makes it easy to both capture and interpret scan data.
Gain Deeper Insights Beyond Pass/Fail
3D scanners capture far more information than a hand tool or CMM ever could. CXS lets you leverage that rich data to understand why parts are in or out of tolerance.
Optimize Manufacturing Processes
With insights gained from comparing scanned parts to CAD models or golden parts in CXS, stakeholders can recognize and address issues faster than ever.
7x faster
3D scanning and inspecting parts with CXS is up to 7x faster than with a CMM
80% lower
CXS customers report up to 80% lower inspection costs based on time and labor savings
Professional Inspection Capabilities
Application
High-tech 3D Scanners
Scantech’s handheld 3D scanners power the 3D scanning services. These instruments can obtain precise point clouds, which can be triangulated into a polygon mesh or STL file.
Due to their high precision, versatility, and portability, they can fulfill various metrology-grade 3D scanning projects.
