OMP40 software options

The following software packages can be used to program probing routines for work piece set-up and inspection on CNC machining centres

  • EasyProbe - entry-level package for simple work piece set-up
  • Inspection - basic set-up and work piece inspection cycles, with automatic update of offsets
  • Inspection plus - an integrated suite of inspection cycles including vector measurement
  • Productivity+™ Active Editor Pro - a PC-based software package with GUI, allowing the user to select features directly from an imported CAD model, making the generation of probing cycles even easier.
