Wilcox Associates PC-DMIS 3.5

PC-DMIS for Windows is a full-featured, geometric measurement package. It translates the high-level commands required to measure parts into the detailed steps necessary to drive a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). PC-DMIS for Windows incorporates Microsoft's Windows interface to create, as well as execute part programs. The user can easily begin the measurement process by taking advantage of the drop-down menus, dialog boxes, and icons. The versatility of PC-DMIS' interface also provides an easy way to customize the software to meet the individual specifications.

The Primary goals driving the design of PC-DMIS for Windows were flexibility and user friendliness. To meet these goals, PC-DMIS provides a flexible environment allowing for real-time error correction of part programs, as opposed to the long, tedious debugging process of other geometric software packages. It is dimension oriented to reduce the need to analyze and interpret the results of the CMM measurements. The techniques used for the part programming on a CMM are straightforward and, with practice, systematic.
