Renishaw MODUS Description
Renishaw's MODUS provides a powerful platform to measure 5-axis. A configurable interface allows native DMIS to be developed off-line, drawing geometry, embedded measurements, and tolerance data directly from CAD. Full simulation is also possible. The software contains algorithms that are certified for feature measurement, feature creation, and part alignment. The software allows offline creation of programs directly from CAD, with on-screen probe paths verification. The CMM environment, fixture, and location of the part can be defined to enable full simulation of 5-axis measurements programs. This reduces CMM downtime, as the programs are ready to run when they arrive at the machine. MODUS has a wide range of reporting capabilities, including CMM text reports that can be formatted in any way you like. Graphical reporting allows results to be displayed on the CAD model. This includes whisker charts or 3-D form plotting.
