Metrolosys Inspection Software Under New Management of Creative Products Company

AIMS-Enabled Inspection Software Converts Machine Tools Into Coordinate Measuring Machines


CHINO, Calif., May 8, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Creative Products Company announced today it will manage the sales, marketing, and product development of the Metrolosys inspection software product line. Metrolosys v9.5 (www.metrolosys.com) is the leading inspection software for machine tool probing that transforms any machine tool into a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). Creative Products Company specializes in manufacturing software development, and offers CNC machining and high-end laser engraving services. Creative Products Company is located at 5670 Schaefer Avenue, Suite J, Chino, CA 91710. The company can be reached at (909) 591-3638 or via email: info@creativeproco.com.

Creative Products Company will continue to support the integration of the AIMS (Advanced Integrated Mathematical System) Metrology Kernel within the Metrolosys inspection software. Jointly developed by The Boeing Company and Metronor Group, AIMS is a software solution developed to actualize paperless manufacturing and enable seamless, bi-directional sharing of CAD geometry, inspection plans, and measurement data between industrial hardware and software platforms.

Metrolosys allows manufacturers to use any probe-ready CNC milling machine in the same way they would utilize a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). This powerful CAD-based programming and reporting system for machined parts supports ISO 17025, ASME B5.54, and NIST traceability standards. Metrolosys provides independent volumetric error mapping, advanced high-speed probing methods, and automatically generates Inspection G-code.

Metrolosys 9.5 ushered in a new era for Lean Manufacturing by reducing machine-tool downtime up to 75%. A user can program a CNC machine using a touch probe to measure a part, and can drastically reduce the process to less than 10 keystrokes when creating the part inspection G-code probing program. Metrolosys enables the machine tool to perform the inspection without tearing down the job for first article inspection or any other inspection requirement. After machining a part, it is already setup for in-place inspection, thus introducing a major contribution to the Lean Manufacturing process. CMM-type alignments of the machine tool to the machined part and its corresponding 3D CAD model are easily accomplished using Metrolosys.
