CATIA V5 CMM Planner is 3D Inspection Software that supports all types of 3D Measuring Devices:
The CATIA V5 CMM Planner by Adaptive Corporation provides 3D inspection software that operates natively in CATIA V5 and supports the World's most advanced and comprehensive range of measuring devices, including CMM's, laser scanners, portable arms, laser trackers, or any other 3D device.
Model-based definition (MBD) often adds as many cycles to the process as it eliminates. The absence of blueprints and the lack of full adoption of functional tolerance often leave quality departments struggling with the best way to create inspection plans. Multiple software formats and translations that degrade quality and add cost to the process are often the only answer. Third-party CMM software often lacks the functionality or ease-of-use to make it practical for programming.
The ideal situation would be to create CMM inspection plans DIRECTLY from within the NATIVE CATIA application. This will immediately improve quality by using NATIVE data throughout the process. It will reduce cost by eliminating the overhead associated with working with multiple translations. It will provide automated tools for creating CMM inspection plans. It will provide the flexibility to post CMM Programs to nearly any CMM.
The answer is here.
