Automated inspection software that speeds processes, provides in-depth analysis and ensures repeatability
Geomagic Qualify is the previously missing link between CAD and CAM, fulfilling the promise of a fully digital manufacturing environment. It enables fast, easy-to-understand graphical comparisons between CAD models and as-built parts for first-article inspection, inline or shop-floor inspection, trend analysis, 2D and 3D geometric dimensioning, and automated reporting.
Customers such as Schneider Electric's Square D brand report the following benefits:
- Significant time and money savings - Inspection and approval can be completed in hours instead of weeks, enabling a much faster product development cycle.
- Better process control - Quality Control can be performed in-house without depending on third-party schedules and expenses.
- Improved efficiency - Geomagic Qualify is easy to use and an intuitive tool for designers, who no longer have to decipher tabular reports and convert 2D data to a 3D CAD model.
- Better communication - Automatically generated, web-ready reports improve communication across manufacturing functions and physical locations.
- Certified results - PTB certifies that Geomagic Qualify's fitting results are accurate to less than 0.1 micrometers in length and 0.1 arcseconds (1/36,000 of a degree) in angle compared to the official reference value.
- Greater accuracy - Geomagic Qualify allows users to inspect quality for a surface that is defined by tens of thousands of points, compared to the five or ten points that might define a CMM surface.
- Automated SPC - Automated statistical process control on multiple samples can provide insight into deviation trends in a manufacturing process or used to verify the capability of a multiple cavity mold.

Qualify Benefits
- Major money and time savings - Inspection and approvals can be done in hours instead of weeks, resulting in a much faster product development cycle.
- Simplicity with functionality - The software requires no special expertise, yet it provides an unprecedented level of functionality. An intuitive user interface guides you through the entire align, compare, evaluate and report workflow.
- Better quality control at less cost - Quality control can be done in-house, rather than relying on a third party. This allows you to manage your own processes and save the expense of outsourcing inspection.
- Improved design efficiency - Graphical comparisons of "as designed" vs. "as manufactured" information aids in the designer's understanding of problems, enabling quicker turnaround time for design changes.
- Better accuracy -Geomagic Qualify bases inspection on surfaces defined by tens of thousands of points, rather than the five or 10 points that might define a CMM surface.
- A clearer picture of results - Display options include deviation color maps; continuous, segmented or "go/no-go" displays; deviation and comment annotation; and specified location checking.
- Automatic feature comparisons - Datum-based registration allows users to automatically align features to determine tolerance differences between the CAD model and actual part.
- Collaboration with others - Dynamic 3D annotations improve communication among different users at different locations.
- Automatic HTML reports - With a single click, users can generate detailed HTML reports with numeric information, multiple views, user-defined and annotated views, notes and conclusions. Automated reports can also be generated in VRML and major print format
