To optimize performance within the software, users can utilize the mesh-thinning parameters upon import, reducing the polygon count while preserving the geometric edges critical for inspection. 7. Conclusion
This article provides an in-depth exploration of GOM Inspect 2019, highlighting its core capabilities, major updates for the 2019 release, typical inspection workflows, and how it serves as a foundation for modern metrology. 1. Introduction to GOM Inspect 2019
The user creates geometric primitives (planes, cylinders, cones, circles) on the CAD data and projects them onto the mesh. Dimensions such as distances, diameters, and angles are calculated. GD&T checks are applied to confirm the part complies with design blueprints. Step 6: Reporting and Export
To compare scanned data to a CAD model, the datasets must be aligned in the same coordinate system. GOM Inspect 2019 offers several alignment methods: Gom Inspect 2019
Inspect flatness, cylindricity, parallelism, and concentricity.
Aerospace engineering demands absolute precision. GOM Inspect 2019 inspects complex airfoil geometries, turbine blades, and structural blisks. Its section analysis tools allow engineers to evaluate trailing edges, leading edges, and throat areas against strict aerodynamic profiles. Injection Molding and Casting
Generates detailed PDF reports featuring screenshots, tables of dimensions, and custom templates. Reporting Features in 2019 Release To optimize performance within the software, users can
Use Cases
A pass/fail summary based on defined tolerances. How to Generate the Report
Once aligned, the software performs a surface comparison. It calculates the perpendicular distance from every point on the scanned mesh to the CAD surface. The results are displayed as a 3D color map, where blue typically represents material undersize and red represents material oversize. Step 4: GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) GD&T checks are applied to confirm the part
The 2019 release enhanced the direct import and analysis of computed tomography (CT) data.
: Perhaps the most innovative feature of GOM Inspect 2019 was the introduction of the "Virtual Clamping" module for ATOS Professional and GOM Inspect Professional. This module was a world-first that allowed users to simulate the clamping of sheet metal and plastic parts in a virtual environment.
The parametric, non-destructive software structure ensures that all evaluation steps are traceable.
You need to measure specific items like distances, diameters, and angles.
The software enables users to edit, polygonize, and smooth mesh data. It can fill holes, refine edges, and reduce data size while maintaining surface accuracy, making it ideal for preparation before analysis. 2. Parametric Inspection Workflow
