Description

Certified Inspection Software

To ensure precise measuring accuracy, the GOM software packages have been tested and certified by the two institutes PTB and NIST. The accuracy of the inspection software is confirmed by the comparison of the results obtained with the reference results. The GOM software has been placed in Category 1, the category with the smallest measurement deviations.

Software Highlights

Actual-nominal comparison

The calculated polygon mesh describes free-form surfaces and standard geometries. These can be compared with the drawing or directly with the CAD data set with the help of a surface comparison. A 3D analysis of surfaces as well as a 2D analysis of sections or points can be implemented in the software. CAD-based generation of standard geometries such as lines, planes, circles or cylinders is also possible.

Alignment

The GOM 3D software contains all standard alignment functions. These include RPS alignment, hierarchical alignment based on geometric elements, alignment in a local coordinate system, using reference points as well as various best-fit methods such as global best-fit and local best-fit. Customers can also use their own specific alignments, e. g. for turbine blades, such as balanced beam or equalized nested.

Curve-based inspection

On the basis of full-field digitalized data, construction functions can be applied for curves and their characteristics can be visualized. Edge curves can, for example, be recorded, radii and design lines can be analyzed and spline curves can be created. Curve-based inspection is also used to evaluate gap and flush.

Trend, SPC and deformation analysis

The parameter-based approach of the GOM software enables trend analysis for multiple evaluation, e. g. for statistical process control (SPC) or deformation analysis. As a result, several parts or stages within a single project can be evaluated in a full-field manner, and statistical analysis values such as Cp, Cpk, Pp, Ppk, Min, Max, Avg and Sigma can be determined.

GD&T analysis

In contrast to the pure dimension analysis, the GD&T analysis focuses on the functional aspect of the part. Corresponding GD&T elements are, for example, planarity, parallelism or cylindricity. Both, a standardized analysis of 2-point distances and of the maximum material requirement as well as the position tolerance in local datum and coordinate systems are possible.

Airfoil inspection

Special functions are available for the quality control of turbine blades, which can be used, for example, to inspect the profile mean line, profile chord line or profile thickness of turbine blades on the basis of 2D sections. The profile centroid, profile radii and profile twists can also be calculated.

Reporting

The reporting module enables users to create reports containing snapshots, images, tables, diagrams, texts and graphics. The results can be visualized and edited in the user interface as well as exported as a PDF file. Templates are reusable, and each scene saved in a report can be restored in the 3D window.

Dynamic Referencing

Due to ATOS smart dynamic referencing, the object (part being measured) and the sensor can be freely moved or positioned during a scan project without the worries of sacrificing accuracy or data quality.  The intelligent software automatically aligns each scan to create a 3D point cloud without leapfrogging.  Additionally, the ATOS sensor and object do not need to be fixed in relation to each other.  The intelligent software guides the user through the entire scanning process with instant 3D virtual visualizations on the monitor.

Golden MeshFor many applications, the Golden Mesh is required by either finding the best mesh or calculating an average mesh. The best mesh is an original mesh, which is determined to have the least deviation from an average data set. The average mesh is a new mesh, which is calculated based on a set of multiple meshes. When determined, the Golden Mesh can be exported as STL for reverse engineering to CAD or used as a reference for future part inspection. GOM Inspect Professional Software - Golden Mesh

Point-Based InspectionAll evaluation functions can also be used on point clouds.  For example, this includes measurement of distances between individual points and a comparison of points with the CAD model.  Construction functions can then be applied to created geometry elements based on several points.  This allows GD&T analysis on the generated elements, including flatness, cylindricity or positional accuracy.

Free GOM Inspect: All point based inspection functions can be applied.  

 GOM Inspect Professional Software - Point-Based Inspection
Point-Based Motion and Deformation AnalysisAnalysis of motion and deformation is carried out using a component concept.  Points are divided into coherent groups and defined as components.  Transformations or corrections to rigid body movements can then be calculated for these components.  6DoF (degrees of freedom) analysis can be applied to determine the translation and rotation movements in all directions.  Vector fields then help visualize point movements and deformation over time.
