Verisurf Software Machine Tool Probing (MTP) Suite | Quality Magazine

Verisurf Software, Inc. demonstrated its new Machine Tool Probing (MTP) suite at IMTS 2024. The solution is designed to support in-process inspection directly on CNC machine tools. As the only CAD/CAM-based metrology software on the market. Verisurf continues to build on its heritage of intelligent Model-Based Definition (MBD) with new features, enhancements, and optimized workflows for inspection, reporting, reverse engineering, tool building, and guided assembly.

MTP extends Verisurf’s commitment to universal compatibility and offers manufacturers inspection and reporting options beyond typical CMMs. Autonomous on-machine milling and inspection are accomplished with a single setup. CMM hardware costs are eliminated, parts (especially large parts) do not need to be moved to and from the metrology lab, environmental stability is maintained, no additional fixtures or realignment of parts is necessary for measurement, and the closed-loop process improves overall process control.

Verisurf Software is configured in application modules delivered through powerful solution suites designed to optimize the user experience and execution of workflows. The Verisurf user interface presents applications in a Windows ribbon bar style. This provides a familiar user experience and enables new and existing customers to quickly identify and utilize each solution suite's workflows and underlying features, tools, and capabilities, helping to maximize their metrology investment.

"The Verisurf MTP Suite provides extended flexibility for quality inspection. Our no-code programming and open platform compatibility allow customers to create automated inspection plans with unmatched efficiency that can be executed on stationary or portable CMMs, and now, on all equipped CNC machine tools as well," said Ernie Husted, Verisurf's President and CEO.

Verisurf is built on the Mastercam platform, which allows the CAM and CAI (Computer Aided Inspection) programming to be generated using the same software. This provides numerous benefits over other on-machine inspection applications. The programming process and file management complexity are reduced, measurement results can be directly applied to improve machining, and overall process control is increased by closing the loop between the physical machined part and the intelligent CAD model.
