October 16, 2015 – Hexagon Metrology Introduces TubeShaper software that controls ROMER tube measurement system for production, tube and pipe inspection and tube gauging.
TubeShaper offers a number of user-friendly features and is based on an intuitive graphical user interface with two operator access profiles. Measurement plans can be created automatically in first-part inspection or set up offline prior to measurement, making batch measurements faster while guaranteeing repeatability. An advanced CAD engine enables the import and export of tube data in various formats, as well as the inspection of full tube assemblies including welded brackets, hangers and flanges. The software can interface directly with one or more CNC tube benders. As a result, correctional data can calculated and applied within the production cycle, which streamlines operations and almost completely eliminates scrap.
TubeShaper is available as part of the Hexagon Metrology Tube Inspection System or as a standalone software for use with existing Hexagon Metrology portable measuring arm systems.
