3D scan based inspection is an important new trend, but the technology has been complex and difficult to implement in a conventional QA environment. The technology often does not fit into existing inspection process pipelines because it is not built around the user's process.
3D scan based inspection systems consist of sophisticated technology components that can't be managed with simple mea-suring and inspection software. 3D scan based ins-pection systems (hardware and soft-ware) must be process-centric and integrated into existing QA workflows in order to be effec-tive.
That is why Systematic Inspect-ion Processing™ is indispensa-ble to revolutionize the conven-tional product design and manufacturing processes through effectively adopting 3D scanning technology in the current QA infrastructures.
Rapidform XOV/Verifier is the world's first software for Sys-tematic Inspection Processing using dense point cloud data. It is the only software of its kind that is built around the customer inspection process, with detailed planning and fast and easy execution of inspection process-ing. Built for accuracy and speed, if offers real time scan-to-CAD and scan-to-scan comparison and industry-proven geometric dimension & tolerance. It is the only point-cloud software with 100% repeatable inspection processing in the world. Rapidform XOV can be easily operated by either design & production professionals or shop floor technicians.
Rapidform XOV maximizes the innovations in 3D scanner technology, providing the world with the most advanced 3D scan data inspection software. Rapidform XOV offers extremely accurate Scan-to-CAD, Scan-to-STL and Scan-to-Scan comparisons as well as geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) at incredible speeds. Rapidform XOV has been recognized globally for its accuracy by the German PTB, the American NIST and the British NPL.

The planning phase of Rapidform XOV prepares the automated inspection of multiple scan data sets with the created inspection plan.
Once deviations, measurements and alignment have been defined, the user need only to execute a single step to generate complete inspection results.
Rapidform XOV is capable of processing millions of point and polygons with unsurpassed speed and accuracy by utilizing the most advanced Dynamic Disk Caching technology. XOV's unique liveInspect and liveScan features guide the user through the scanning process to ensure precise scanning of every part.
Generating inspection results in Rapidform XOV requires only a single step when using the predefined inspection process. XOV automatically aligns the scan data to the design model, measures the part, creates color maps and generates a report in less than a minute. By predefining the inspection process, multiple scan data sets can be inspected in one step, making in-line and next-to-line inspection with 3D scan data possible.
liveInspect™ with smartGuide™ offers an innovative and systematic method of seamlessly applying 3D scanning technology to the quality assurance process. liveInspect empowers Rapidform XOV as an enterprise-level QA software solution by utilizing its planning-based inspection workflow in which the inspection tasks are separated into 3 stages; inspection planning, 3D scanning,
and result analysis with 100% automated reusability for repeated part inspections with a predefined & parametric inspection plan. liveInspect has a sophisticated new interface for hand-guided 3D scanning that makes it simple for any user, from professionals to shop floor technicians, to scan an object and create a complete inspection analysis report in seconds. The liveInspect with smartGuide features of Rapidform XOV drastically improve the manufacturing quality and reduces the quality assurance cost in a simple way.
