Newest Version of 3-D Multisensor Metrology Software



OGP (Optical Gaging Products), a division of Quality Vision International (QVI), has introduced the newest version of its signature 3-D CAD-based multisensor metrology software, ZONE3 Version 4. ZONE3 Version 4 includes a range of new features and capabilities to make 3-D multisensor measurement easier, more efficient and more effective.

ZONE3 Version 4 features and capabilities include:

  • New finders and video tools, including the Auto Adjust Light Finder to automatically adjust a light source to an intensity goal, a Blob Tool Finder to locate irregular geometries and report their area and centroid location in single or multiple fields-of-view(s), and the Area Multi Focus Finder that uses optical focus to create an array of 3-D data points that can be used in constructions or feature definitions. Also included is an Advanced Edge Detection Finder, as well as a new Acquire Image tool that allows a video image to be acquired and saved in various formats for later use in visualization, documentation, and in some cases, as measuring tools.
  • Replace CAD, a productivity tool that allows easy updating of a CAD file in an existing part routine when the part design changes. ZONE3 automatically eliminates steps in the routine associated with features that no longer exist in the new CAD file and highlights new features.
  • Task based programming, where subsets of a master measurement routine (Task Lists) can be run in lieu of the full routine. ZONE3 automatically identifies all steps required to measure the selected dimensions, including features needed for alignments and constructions. Ideal for first article, FDA or parametric program environments.
  • New ways to perform alignments, including Use Current Alignment to ensure a current datum alignment is applied to a GD&T step rather than specifying each datum individually, and Alignment Indexer where alignments used in a repeat loop are sequenced and numbered to optimize runtime and easily associate each measurement with its coordinate system alignment.
  • New constructions, including Extreme Point, where the measured point for the selected feature that is the most extreme in a specified direction may be constructed and reported and/or used as an expression variable, and Angle Measurements, where complementary or supplementary angles in any plane may be reported.
  • More tolerance options, including user-defined global block tolerances, ISO 2768 tolerances (fine, medium, coarse, very coarse), user-defined decimal digits, unilateral tolerances (MAX or MIN) and ISO +/+, -/- and +/- tolerances.
  • More flexibility in part routine programming and flow. Variables can be used in repeat loops and sensor updates. Expressions can be populated from GD&T failures, machine attributes and status flags.
