CALYPSO 2018

CALYPSO 2018 is a 3D coordinate metrology solution for programming, executing, and reporting measurements on CMMs and multi-sensor systems. Built around a CAD-driven workflow and modern GD&T, it helps quality teams create reliable inspection plans faster, simulate probe paths before runtime, and deliver clear, traceable results to production and engineering.

Key capabilities:

• CAD-centric inspection: import common 3D CAD and PMI formats, recognize features automatically, and build feature-based measurement plans.
• Robust GD&T: supports ISO and ASME practices with datum systems, material condition modifiers, and profile/position evaluations.
• Multi-sensor and CMM control: works with tactile, scanning, and optical sensors; includes collision avoidance, efficient path planning, and alignment strategies.
• Freeform and curve analysis: acquire dense data, perform best-fit alignments, and visualize deviations with color maps.
• Offline programming and simulation: validate probe motions, detect collisions, and estimate cycle times before releasing to the shop floor.
• Automation and productivity: templates, strategy libraries, batch execution, and fixture/pallet management reduce setup time and variability.
• Reporting and connectivity: configurable reports, SPC-friendly exports, and integration with quality data systems for full traceability.
• 2018 enhancements: streamlined UI, faster handling of large CAD models, improved PMI import, performance gains in scanning and alignments, and broad 64‑bit Windows support.

Ideal for automotive, aerospace, medical, and precision manufacturing, CALYPSO 2018 helps standardize inspection, shorten measurement cycles, and improve confidence in quality results.
