Gone are the days of checking individual dimensions with a caliper or measuring tape. A single 3D scan can be used to check dozens or hundreds of Geometric Dimensions and Tolerances (GD&T) in a flash.

Join us as Brian Metzger, a TriMech Elite Applications Engineer, takes the process even further and shows the powerful automation tools that can be used to inspect large batches of parts automatically. We show how ZEISS Inspect (formerly known as GOM Inspect Professional) can easily recreate measurements on large quantities of parts.

During this ZEISS Scanners On-Demand Webinar, you will learn:

  • Unlock the potential of 3D scanning for enhanced dimensional inspection of mechanical parts.
  • Move beyond traditional methods, replacing individual measurements with comprehensive 3D scans.
  • Harness the efficiency of a single 3D scan to evaluate dozens or hundreds of Geometric Dimensions and Tolerances (GD&T) instantly.
  • Explore automation tools, specifically ZEISS Inspect, for the automated inspection of large batches of parts, revolutionizing the inspection process.

Stratasys Origin One – Revolutionizing Injection Molding Applications https://trimech.com/stratasys-origin-one-revolutionizing-injection-molding-2/ Tue, 28 Nov 2023 19:41:22 +0000 https://trimech.com/?p=66117 The Additive Manufacturing industry has heard concerns for years regarding 3D printers jumping in and taking the place of traditional manufacturing methods. In most cases, this is nonsense, as Additive tends to be a far better partner to traditional manufacturing than a 1:1 replacement.

Recently, though, with the introduction of some newer technologies, printers, and materials to the market, we’re closer than ever to this dream possibly becoming a reality!

During this On-Demand Webinar:

TriMech’s Additive Solutions Consultant, Rich Annino, showcases the Stratasys Origin One, an incredible piece of manufacturing equipment that happens to work using additive methods. Rich will explore how this is all possible, and how the Origin One is quickly becoming the Injection Molding Professional’s best friend!

  • The Basics of Stratasys’ Origin One Technology
  • Ways in which the Origin One is capable of supporting, and in some cases replacing, Traditional Injection Molding
  • How the brand-new GrabCAD Print Support Generation fits into this equation
