WM | GENERATOR

AUTOMATED MEASUREMENT & EVALUATION

The WM | Generator is used to automatically generate measuring programs from measuring plans. The WM | Generator is still a very visionary product in the early stages of development. It will still take years until the CAD-models contain the corresponding information all over the country, but WENZEL is on the topic. The WM | Generator is being developed for customers who want to reduce the effort of generating measuring programs. Initially, the focus is on tactile, touch trigger probe systems with PH10 in combination with CAD models that contain measurement plans in the form of semantic PMIs. Other technologies - and other measurement plan formats - will also be supported later. At the trade fair Control 2019 we presented a Proof of Concept of the WM | Generator.

WM | Generator

FUNCTION

When importing the CAD model, not only the CAD data but also the semantic PMI are converted. The measurement plan is automatically generated from the PMI - the basis for the measurement sequence. For the characteristics to be evaluated and the corresponding elements to be recorded, the measurement strategy can still be edited in the measurement plan if required. Characteristics that are not to be evaluated in the measuring program are deactivated.

If necessary, PMI can still be added or edited. Based on the measurement plan, the measurement procedure is calculated, which represents the preliminary stage for program generation. From the measurement plan, the WM | Generator generates the measurement program, which can be executed in WM | Quartis..
