Does it support fast changeover between multiple part models? How long does it take?
Yes. Measurement programs are stored as product configuration files, so changeover means calling up the right program, usually taking seconds to tens of seconds depending on whether the fixture changes. The system can store an unlimited number of product programs and call them automatically by work order, barcode or PLC signal, avoiding manual program selection errors. With barcode scanning, an operator simply scans the part or work order to switch both program and acceptance criteria. This is one reason we use a configuration-driven architecture: adding a product requires only a new or adjusted configuration, not a code change.
