October 2003, Farmington Hills, Michigan, USA - ROMER is pleased to introduce the TooLOK system... “Touch three and you’ll see” that TooLOK™ is the easiest inspection system ever. TooLOK, the newest of ROMER’s Arm Tracker Products, increases your throughput by automating the inspection of tools, fixtures and parts. TooLOK automates inspection tasks. By contacting three pre-qualified points on a part, tool or fixture with the probe, TooLOK: • recognizes the part • aligns (references) the tool, fixture or part • loads the CAD file and inspection routine • tells the operator where to begin measuring

Set-up time is eliminated, an operator can simply pick up a part, touch the three pre-qualified points and start inspecting. No more searching through hundreds of files and routines to get your part ready for inspection!

TooLOK is an advanced add-on utility for PowerINSPECT 3.0, our premier inspection and reverse engineering application. PowerINSPECT allows for rapid inspection of complex 3D parts and generates CAD-to-part comparisons.

A simple-to-use TooLOK wizard allows anyone to generate a LOK for a fixture, gage, part or tool. The LOK then serves as the reference between the part and its associated files. Once the LOK is established, an inspection routine can easily be created, allowing other users to follow that routine and ensuring reliable measuring consistency.
