"PolyWorks has significant acceptance at many of our major OEM customers, most of which already own multiple Hexagon Metrology technologies such as portable and stationary CMMs. "We are very pleased to be able to introduce this range of non-contact scanning packages to the market," says Bill Gruber, President and CEO of Hexagon Metrology, Inc. Combining Hexagon's strong position in the 3D measurement technologies with our PolyWorks inspection and reverse engineering solution will enable both organizations to increase even further their respective market share in North America," he continues. "In addition to the demand for new hardware systems, we have observed that retro-fitting of existing CMMs with laser scanners is also a key growing market. Says Marc Soucy, President of InnovMetric Software Inc. "This agreement represents a major business opportunity to partner with a world-leading supplier of stationary and portable CMMs and 3D laser scanners," Manufacturers in aerospace, among other industries, can benefit from this solution.
The hardware and software combination allows manufacturers to quickly digitize parts and use the resulting point cloud data to inspect, reverse-engineer and perform other computer-aided engineering tasks such as finite element analysis, rapid prototyping, and computational fluid dynamics. Brown & Sharpe brand "ScanShark" laser probe equipped Global bridge-type CMMs and DEA brand horizontal arm and gantry CMMs will also have a PolyWorks/Modeler option available. The agreement covers all of Hexagon's point cloud processing needs on ROMER "ScanShark" laser probe equipped portable measuring arms, plus Leica Laser Trackers and Leica T-Scan 3D digitizer systems. ROMER, Leica Geosystems, DEA and Brown & Sharpe sold in North America. Under this agreement, Hexagon Metrology will bundle PolyWorks software with industrial measuring systems from four of its core brands:
(North Kingstown, RI) have signed an agreement for the distribution of the PolyWorks universal 3D metrology software platform from InnovMetric. (Quebec City, Canada) and Hexagon Metrology, Inc.
