CMM New and Used Automotive Market Leaders Choose PC-DMIS for their Mitutoyo CMM - 2Market leaders are choosing PC-DMIS as the preferred software for their Mitutoyo coordinate measuring machine. One leading company in the production of one and two piece flexplates for the global automotive industry has intimated that PC-DMIS has the "latest & greatest industry standard software with the capability of importing 3 dimensional CAD models."

Unlike Geopak Software running on Mitutoyo coordinate measuring machine, retrofitting to PC-DMIS gives you the ability to inspect directly to 3D nominal geometry as well as create inspection routines both online and offline. Upgrading to PC-DMIS has resulted in time savings of approximately 60% when it comes to part program development and debugging.

An important consideration in the selection process was the ability to be able to use their existing database of Mitutoyo programs for the validation process of existing Customer programs. PC-DMIS retrofit packages are available for new or used Mitutoyo CMM that allows you to change back and forth between existing controller and software to the new controller and PC-DMIS. Having this capability will enable you to keep your existing part programs but still upgrade to the power of PC-DMIS.
