Improve your 3D measurement experience with a winning combination: Silma X4, for advanced simulation and digital twin of your 3D measurement process, and Metrolog for on-machine execution and analysis.
First, when metrologists program offline inspection tasks on complete simulated twins of their actual environment and equipment, the CMM or the robot are free to continue measuring and monitoring.
Second, when inspection programs have been simulated and virtually tested, they are error- and collision-free once applied to the manufacturing process.
Third, an offline simulation program like Silma X4 or Silma X4 i-Robot can work directly with native or neutral CAD files and automatically interpret GD&T.
Our simulation software, Silma, can also be used for training purposes, as an e-learning tool.
Silma integrates an extensive CMM library including the real machine cinematic as well as detailed probe heads, probes and styluses and accessories. Parts to be measured and their associated fixtures can be directly loaded as CAD files and easily set in the 3D virtual machine environment.
Silma has been developed not only to create and simulate part programs but also to entirely validate and troubleshoot them using advanced probing and measurement routines and constructions. Based on a programmer oriented and intuitive interface, part program proofing is fast and easy.
Silma includes a true 3D inspection and analysis engine capable to validate your program consistency. In addition, its collision detection and automatic collision removal tools give you the ability to visualize, optimize and update in real your entire program probing path.
Silma is capable to create part programs directly in Native DMIS or in X4 proprietary format as well as to export them in many other native formats, including: Quindos™, Umess, … The programs can then be run directly on the CMM for final online validation and immediate utilization.
Silma programmer interface was developed to easily and efficiently create simple to extremely complex part programs using high level language commands.
Based on its fully customizable virtual world environment and the CAD files of the parts to be measured, the initial set-up and completion of a part program can be done without having any real CMM downtime: the program can be sent to the machine virtually error and collision free!
Silma includes a virtual library of more than 500 machines (DCC and Manual CMMs, Laser trackers, changers, rotary tables…) and all the other needed accessories needed to replicate your real world environment (Renishaw™ and other OEM probe library accessories, universal fixtures…).
Silma is based on years of programming experience and follows the latest standards to guaranty consistence and coherence in your part program creations.
Direct Native or Neutral CAD file import (Iges, Set, Vda, Catia, Unigraphics, ProEng, STEP, IDEAS…) GD&T Import and automatic interpreter engine for easy programming Assembly and positioning of objects based on advanced constraint algorithms Detection and removal of collision fully customizable. Automatic clearance box based on feature or part to facilitate path optimization.
Silma is compatible with all major CMM brands, Laser trackers, probe library, accessory… Ready to create your 3D virtual environment.
As a Dassault Systèmes partner, Metrologic offers a variant of Silma embedded into CATIA V5.
The first offline inspection solution fully compatible with worldwide recognized CAD software.
