Verisurf Software Interface — The developers claim Verisurf Automate will make users more productive with a 3D environment that includes an object-oriented operations manager, CAD feature extraction, and solid model associativity.

Verisurf Software Inc. is introducing a "revolutionary approach" to inspection automation with Verisurf Automate -- a CMM programming software that makes operating a coordinate-measuring machine system faster and easier. It also offers cost-saving opportunities in the inspection processes, as a 3D CAD measurement platform that automates all types and brands of CMMs with an intuitive 3D experience, graphical object oriented programming and open standards that broaden the program and extension options.

The new platform will have a general release this month, and will be demonstrated at IMTS 2014 in September. Verisurf Software Inc. develops 3D measurement programs for advanced computer-aided surface analysis, inspection, tool building, assembly guidance and reverse engineering.
