Cool article about Verisurf and the B-52.

“Implementing the FaroArm and Verisurf CAD production and inspection systems has been a very wise move for us,” says Hansen. “It offers us a total reverse engineering, manufacturing, and inspection solution, and has given us a new degree of accuracy, consistency, and credibility in the quality of all of our products. Each serialized engine duct that we send to the Air Force has a report with the FaroArm measurements that validates its conformity, and we can say with confidence that the part will fit the aircraft within its required tolerances. We have also started using the FaroArm to reverse engineer and inspect parts for our other contracts, and it has proven to be effective for each of those products and applications.”

That arm looks really cool. I have alot of things I could use it for. I would love to have one but there is no way I could afford it.

[Ron Branch @ 5th Axis]

Well they have all types of arms and you might be surprised how much a set-up cost. Cool thing about Verisurf is we work inside of Mastercam. You can see real time on your model where the problems are. You can do it anywhere in the shop the arm and computer will get to and are not tied to just checking parts on your CMM or with traditional measuring tools.

Ron,

I need more info about Verisurf, we are having some problems with .STL files and I'm looking for a solution ASAP.

 

If you could send me some info about verisurf, it would be great.

Isn't the FaroArm only accurate to .5mm?

[Ron Branch @ 5th Axis]

There are different arms and that is loose for even the biggest arm. Smaller arms are accurate to .0006 and the bigger arms are accurate to .0026.

 

It is like anything use the right tool for the job. Arms are a great addition to any shop and by having them you allow bottle necks associated to inspection all but eliminated. You have the ability with Verisurf to make report see the part on the screen in real time and get feedback right there and done.

 

The older arms had some accuracy issues but the newer arms rock and with a laser scanner and Verisurf you could just about reverse engineer anything you wanted.

this is what we are looking into for our E machines
