WHEN TO CALL US

We start with the problem, not the equipment

The aim is to choose the minimum method required to support the customer’s decision with confidence.

01

CMM stopped for programming

We define the method and evidence required before measuring, programming or producing.

02

Collision risk

We define the method and evidence required before measuring, programming or producing.

03

Routines without a standard

We define the method and evidence required before measuring, programming or producing.

WHAT WE DO

From the need to a usable answer

Each project is sized to its criticality, deadline and the level of evidence actually required.

THE VALUE OF A PARTNER

Measurement capacity without tying up the machine

NM3D combines technology, software and application experience. We do not deliver data alone: we help interpret the result, define the next steps and create a solution that works in the real process.

✓ Right method

Technology chosen according to the question to answer.

✓ Clear result

Evidence organised to support a decision.

✓ Follow-up

Technical support before, during and after the work.

✓ Continuity

Knowledge carried forward to the next challenge.

HOW WE WORK

A simple process, from question to decision

Project detail is adjusted to criticality, deadline and required evidence.

01

Technical scoping

Objective, part, material, criticality, deadline and decision to support.

02

Work plan

Method, equipment, preparation, criteria and evidence agreed.

03

Execution and analysis

Work supervised by specialists and recorded in a traceable way.

04

Result and next steps

Clear conclusions, documented limitations and a practical recommendation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What do you need to assess the request?

A description of the objective, photographs or CAD when available, dimensions, material, tolerances and desired deadline.

Can the service be performed at our facilities?

When the application and equipment allow it, we work on site. Otherwise, we define the safest logistics.

What result is delivered?

We deliver evidence suited to the objective: report, files, images, program, part or action plan, depending on the service.

TALK TO US

Do you have a challenge that needs a technical answer?

Send the objective, photographs or CAD, dimensions and deadline. Our team will help define the way forward.

Offline Programming

We program your measurements offline, directly on the 3D CAD model, without interrupting production. Using CAMIO (multi-sensor and laser CMM), MODUS/REVO (5-axis scanning), PolyWorks|Inspector and Metrolog X4 (analysis/reports), SpatialAnalyzer (laser tracker), and Nikon AutoMeasure (NEXIV/iNEXIV). We define strategies, GD&T, RPS references, and run collision-free simulations including table, fixtures, and probes. We deliver validated programs, reports, and SPC/MES-ready files, ensuring shorter cycles, repeatability, and full traceability.

Program Creation from CAD

We extract features (holes, slots, cones, threads), create reference systems, and apply tolerances according to drawing/ISO-GPS. We optimize points and paths in CAMIO/MODUS and configure report templates in PolyWorks/Metrolog X4. Deliverables include a measurement plan, program file, and FAI/PPAP package.



Simulation, Collision Avoidance and Optimization

We simulate probe and head changes (PH10/REVO), laser scans (LC15Dx/L100/XC65Dx), and all machine movements in a virtual environment. Safety heights, approaches, and operation order are adjusted to minimize empty moves, reducing risk during start-up and shortening cycle times.

Libraries and Standardization

We create feature libraries and templates by family (flanges, housings, gears), with picking rules and edge filters. We standardize names, units, and tolerances, facilitating GR&R/MSA and ensuring consistency across shifts and plants.



Multi-Sensor in a Single Routine

We combine point-to-point probing (TP20/TP200), continuous scanning (SP25/REVO), laser line/point, and vision (NEXIV) in the same program. Freeform surfaces are captured with dense scanning, critical geometries with probing, and heights without contact using vision/laser — without repositioning.

Programs for REVO

We define 5-axis strategies in MODUS/REVO: attitude changes, dense meshes, nominal sections, and profiles. Reports include deviation maps and zone-based statistics, ensuring process capability (Cp/Cpk).



Vision Programming (NEXIV/iNEXIV)

In Nikon AutoMeasure we configure lighting (top/ring/diascopic), AF/Laser AF, stitching, and CAD-to-part. 2D/3D routines with automatic OK/NOK decisions are exported to SPC. Ideal for electronics, plastics, and micromechanics.

Integration and Automation

We prepare palletization, barcode/QR code reading, automatic cycle selection, probe changes, and publish results in CSV/Excel/SQL for SPC/MES/ERP. Report templates in PDF/Excel are matching your customer requirements.


Start-Up Assistance and Training

We install the program on the machine, validate times and capability, adjust strategies, and train operators (daily operation and offset management). Step-by-step documentation and backup are delivered for quick recovery.

Migration and Optimization

We rewrite legacy programs from other software, eliminate redundant measurements, update GD&T, and shorten cycles while maintaining (or improving) metrological coverage. The result: more parts measured per shift, with the same dimensional confidence.
