Geomagic announced the latest addition to its 3D inspection software product line - Geomagic Qualify Probe. Geomagic Qualify Probe takes advantage of the Geomagic Qualify technology to work with a broad range of hard probe precision measurement devices from hardware partners such as Faro, Creaform, Hexagon, Nikon and many others. With the Qualify Probe, users can use touch probes, portable CMM arms and similar equipment to quickly measure physical parts and compare them with their CAD models to determine manufacturing quality. Quality control applications include first-article and in-line production inspection, as well as supplier management.

Affordable and powerful

The user-friendly software is one of the most affordable and powerful in its category. Building on lessons learned from the built-in probing capabilities in Geomagic Qualify, the new Geomagic Qualify Probe software includes redesigned device and human-machine interfaces for fast and intuitive use. Geomagic Qualify's fast and automated reporting tools are also a key feature of the new software.  Furthermore, the Qualify Probe includes CAD data importers for the native formats of CATIA, Autodesk Inventor, NX, SolidWorks and Creo Elements/Pro (formerly Pro/Engineer) at no additional charge.
