MarSim Measuring Machine Simulation

Description

Save valuable measuring time with MarSim Measuring Machine Simulation. Your measuring machine in the measuring room and in the production will be simulated completely on a PC. Your operating software and measuring programs, whether they already exist or are being planned, will operate identically as on a real measuring machine.

Description

MarSim Measuring Machine Simulation is a simulation and visualizing software. Together with MarWin (measuring machine’s software platform) it enables the creation of offline programs and visualization of complete measuring tasks:

  • Three-dimensional visualization of the measuring machine, clamping device and work piece with  numerous functions (for example: pre-defined views, fitting all objects into the view, zooming, displacing, swivelling, turning)
  • Depiction of a real workpiece by importing CAD data (STEP, futher CAD formats upon request)
  • Depiction of all machine movements in real time (via measuring programs or manual operation)
  • Probe tip can be followed due to dual colored light path ( 1st color is measurement, 2nd color is positioning)
  • MarSim is a stand alone application which communicates via UDP/IP protocoll with a measuring machine simulation
  • MarSim is ideal for double monitor operation (MarWin on the first monitor and MarSim on the second monitor or
  • …classically on one monitor with the usual MS Windows program windows
  • Possibility to save screen shots (JPEG) and videos (AVI)

Features

MarSim Measuring Machine Simulation offers a simple increase in performance and effectiveness of existing measuring machines.

  • Save expensive measuring time on the machine: complete creation and testing of measuring programs in MarWin without measuring machine.
  • Risk-free offline plausibility check for interplay of machine, clamping device, probe arm and workpiece, regarding reachability of the measuring position and possible collisions.
  • Measuring program runtime estimation
  • Use and testing of the MarWin protocol functions
  • Application training and instruction in the office and not in the measuring room
  • Disussion and solution of measuring problems in the office and not in the measuring room
