CAD-supported tool for the automatic planning of inspections

CAD2SCAN is a CAD-based tool for automated inspection planning and a new feature of Kitov Smart Planner. By combining CAD2SCAN with Kitov's Smart Visual Inspection and Review Station, users can automate inspection solutions that are too difficult and time-consuming to programme and deploy manually. The semantic information extracted from the CAD is passed to Kitov's semantic detectors. Automated CAD-based inspection planning is suitable for industries that manufacture complex parts and products, such as inspecting parts made from a single material with complex 3D geometric shapes, such as turbine engines or blades, or CNC parts where full manual inspection is difficult and time-consuming.
