Automation
User-friendly digital twin environment software module for deploying automated quality control solutions.As a pivotal component of the Creaform Metrology Suite™, the Automation and Digital Twin Environment module is designed to bring unprecedented efficiency to robotic inspection cells. It enables manufacturers to plan, simulate, and execute automated quality control processes within a completely virtual environment. By creating a high-fidelity digital twin of the entire inspection setup, engineers can optimize robotic paths and ensure collision-free operations before a single part reaches the production line.
The module simplifies the complexity of automated metrology by offering intuitive tools for offline programming and synchronization. Users can define inspection plans and simulate sensor coverage to guarantee that every critical feature is captured with maximum precision. This proactive approach significantly reduces deployment time and eliminates the need for costly trial-and-error adjustments on the shop floor, allowing production to remain uninterrupted during the programming phase.
Engineered for seamless integration with the R-Series™ systems, this software module is the definitive solution for achieving 100% inspection consistency in a high-throughput environment. It empowers quality teams to transition from manual workflows to fully automated, data-driven processes that meet the rigorous demands of Industry 4.0. With its robust simulation capabilities, it ensures that your automated quality control is as agile and reliable as your manufacturing process.

Dynamic Tracking
Dynamic tracking software module enabling simultaneous position and orientation of multiple objects in space and time.As the specialized motion-tracking component of the Creaform Metrology Suite™, the Dynamic Tracking module is engineered for professionals who need to monitor displacements and positions in real time. It transforms your optical tracker into a high-precision measurement system capable of tracking multiple targets simultaneously with incredible accuracy. This makes it an indispensable tool for applications ranging from robotic path calibration to the monitoring of structural deformations in dynamic environments.
The module excels at simplifying complex tracking tasks by providing instantaneous feedback on 3D positions and orientations (6DOF). Whether you are aligning large aerospace components or analyzing the movement of a production machine, the software ensures that environmental instabilities like vibrations do not compromise your data. By using dynamic referencing, the system maintains its precision even if the tracker or the part moves, allowing for laboratory-grade results in the heart of the factory.
Designed for seamless integration into industrial workflows, the Dynamic Tracking module empowers engineers to automate alignment processes and validate the performance of automated systems. Its robust data acquisition engine is built to handle high-frequency measurements, providing the actionable insights needed to optimize mechanical performance and ensure operational safety. It is the ultimate solution for those looking to add a new dimension of motion analysis to their metrology toolkit.
