BuildIT 3D metrology software enables quick and easy dimensional inspection of manufactured parts and assemblies for tool building, assembly, alignment, process automation and quality control. The software's advanced analysis capabilities combine measurement data from multiple sources to produce detailed reports to quickly identify manufacturing and production trends.
BuildIT is used worldwide to inspect and validate high-precision manufactured parts and assemblies. It has been used on many of the world's leading aerospace programs including the JSF F-35 where it facilitates design to manufacturing communication, eliminates translation errors, and achieved tool design and manufacturing process savings of up to 50%.
BuildIT interfaces in real-time with a variety of probing and scanning measurement devices allowing users to quickly and efficiently gather dimensional information from a tool or part. It provides a common interface and consistent workflows when working with devices from major hardware vendors, including FARO, Leica, Romer, API and Creaform. The software directly reads 3D CAD files from native (CATIA®, NX, Parasolid, Pro/E, Inventor) or neutral formats (IGES, STEP, SAT) for model based inspection and assembly. In addition, BuildIT imports measured point data from external sources for maximum compatibility.
8tree makes 3D surface inspection systems to solve chronic problems. The company's products boost workflow efficiency, are incredibly easy-to-use and deliver instant actionable results. With the help of game-changing patent-pending technologies, 8tree empowers customers to make quick, accurate and consistently reliable decisions.
8tree's rapidly growing portfolio currently consists of three product platforms - fastCHECK, dentCHECK and gapCHECK. These product platforms address a wide range of chronic measurement problems that span a variety of industries including aerospace manufacturing and maintenance, automotive manufacturing and repair, oil & gas pipeline maintenance, as well as white-goods manufacturing. fastCHECK is designed to quickly and easily inspect fastener/rivet flushness-levels in the aerospace industry. dentCHECK analyzes surface deformation problems and the resulting reports are presented in industry-defined formats. gapCHECK seamlessly and simultaneously measures numerous points between any number of adjacent surfaces to deliver detailed and easy-to-understand gap and flushness-levels. While all three platforms are typically sold as discrete products, they are designed with scalability and modularity in mind. As a result, any combination of the three core platforms can be packaged into a bundled product configuration that addresses emerging market demands.
