New PowerINSPECT Features Merit System Upgrade
PowerINSPECT 4315 (Delcam PLC) sports a new graphical user interface to promote ease of use and streamlined inspection training. The new version introduces a color-coded scheme for points to be measured. This interactive "bouncing ball" method guides the operator through the inspection process and enables the user to easily reproduce an inspection sequence developed by another operator.

The software has been expanded to include numerous enhancements to programming, importing data, inspection, exporting data and reporting.

Compatibility with the AIMS Metrology Systems allows PowerINSPECT to seamlessly share CAD data, inspection plans, and measurement results with other measurement platforms. The AIMS integration enables users to easily compare data acquisition results obtained with PowerINSPECT with any legacy data collected by older and sometimes out-of-use inspection systems.
