Scan Cloud Data

Axel Scan supports range of point cloud digitizing devices to collect live data. It can also operate in the off-line fashion by importing cloud data saved as meshes or unorganised data points.

Import CAD model

Interfaces to various CAD formats are provided. They include IGES, CATIA v4 and v5, ProEngineer, STEP, VDA.

Deviation map

Calculate scanned cloud deviations from the nominal model and analyse them through the colour map.

Hardware connectivity

Interface with portable probing devices and point cloud scanning devices. Operates major brands of manual and automatic coordinate measuring machines both contact and video.

CAD interfacing

Interfaces to various CAD formats are provided. They include DXF, IGES, CATIA v4 and v5, ProEngineer, STEP, VDA.

Cloud Toolkit

Construction results are automatically found based on the types of its features. For example there is only one intersection which can be applied to any types of features.

Deviation map

Calculate scanned cloud deviations from the nominal model and analyze them through the colour map.

Alignment methods

Construct your alignment from features, surface points, or edge points. Best fit measured surfaces to its nominal CAD models. Optimise it using weights and axial constraints.

Reporting

Assess the repeatability and predictability of your manufacturing processes with multipiece statistics automatically calculated for object dimensions and surface deviations.
