Offline programming station with 3D model and CMM in the background

Specialised Services

Offline Programming and Debugging

Maximise the profitability of your equipment. We create, simulate and optimise measurement programmes in a 100% virtual environment from the CAD, ensuring that your CMM never stops producing while we prepare the next part.

Our Solutions

Offline programming of measurement paths from the CAD model in Silma X4

Program Creation via CAD

We extract data directly from the 3D model to generate optimised trajectories and apply tolerances (GD&T) even before the physical part exists.

Virtual simulation of CMM kinematics for collision detection

Simulation and Anti-Collision

Zero accidents at startup. We simulate the entire kinematics of the machine, probes, and fixtures to detect and eliminate any risk of collision in the virtual environment.

Optimisation of paths and cycle times for a CMM measurement program

Cycle Optimisation

We adjust paths, approaches, and probe tip changes to reduce idle movements, ensuring much shorter and more efficient cycle times.

Assisted start-up and operator training in measurement programs

Assisted Start-up and Training

We don't just deliver the file. We validate the programme on your machine, adjust strategies, and train your team for daily operation.

// EXPERTISE TÉCNICA

From Digital Twin to Shop Floor

Silma X4 and Metrolog X4 in offline programming and measurement execution

The Power of Silma X4 and Metrolog X4

We work with the most advanced engines on the market.

Silma X4 acts as a true Digital Twin of your machine for 100% safe simulation.

The result is a clean and optimised programme, with seamless and native transition to execution in Metrolog X4, ensuring traceable reports.

Multi-sensor measuring head for scanning strategies and 5 axes

Multisensor and 5-Axis Strategies

We combine different technologies in the same routine for maximum efficiency.

We programme point-to-point measurements, continuous scanning, and complex 5-axis routines (such as REVO systems), extracting the maximum potential from your equipment.

Colour maps and deviation reports resulting from optimised measurement routines

Legacy Migration and Optimization

Tem programas antigos e lentos? Reescrevemos e atualizamos rotinas desenvolvidas noutros softwares.

We eliminate redundant measurements, update GD&T datum frames, and shorten cycle time, while maintaining the same dimensional confidence.

Automatic publication of measurement results in SPC, MES and ERP systems

Shop Floor Integration and Automation

We prepare programmes for Industry 4.0.

We configure barcode/QR code reading, automatic cycle selection and direct publication of results to statistical control systems (SPC), MES or ERP.

// PERGUNTAS FREQUENTES

Offline Programming: FAQ

No, that's the great advantage of offline programming. We use the part's CAD file to programme and simulate everything in a virtual environment. Your CMM continues to generate revenue and inspect other parts throughout our development process.
