Internal Rapid Inspection Scanning



Cimquest Manufacturing Solutions is introducing exclusive IRIS (Internal-Rapid-Inspection-Scanning) technology to add to the arsenal of solutions it provides, bridging the technology gap present between its core products: Mastercam CAD/CAM and Stratasys 3D Printing.

"IRIS technology uses cross-sectional scanning to allow for 3D inspection of injection molded parts and is one of the only scanning technologies to provide scanning of internal part features. What typically takes weeks can be accomplished in a matter of hours," said a company spokesperson.

"The unique IRIS 3D Cross Sectional Scanning process produces a highly accurate, three-dimensional point cloud ready for analysis, thus capturing both internal and external features of complex injection-molded parts. Reverse Rapid Prototyping scans the part one ultra-thin layer at a time, generating millions of data points while accurately reproducing the internal and external surfaces of the part," said the spokesperson.

This technology will be offered as a service through Rapid Inspection LLC, a subsidiary of Cimquest, Inc.

IRIS Features:

  • Accurate, complete 3D data, inside and out.
  • A permanent record of the entire part, as molded.
  • Compatible with Spec.Check dimensional analysis software.
  • The ability to scan multiple parts in a single process.
  • Complete part analysis in days instead of weeks.
  • Interrogate any feature at any time (when combined with Spec.Check software).
  • Generate ASCII point clouds that are compatible with 3D color mapping software.
  • Reduction in time to market.

"Now, Cimquest can provide a simple solution to any complex measurement needs. With IRIS 3D Scanning Technology from Rapid Inspection LLC, you can accurately measure the external and internal features of small, complex, injection molded plastic parts, facilitate problem solving and reduce failures," said the spokesperson.
