Integrated manufacturing approach on display at JEC World 2016

Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence and Hexagon-owned CAD/CAM specialist Vero Software have announced plans to exhibit together at the JEC World Composites Show and Conferences taking place in Paris this March. The shared stand will feature a range of composite demonstration parts including an international-standard skeleton sled manufactured by Bromley Sports.

Billed as the largest international gathering of composites professionals, JEC World is dedicated to supporting manufacturers working with composite materials in refining their processes and developing their businesses further. Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence and Vero Software will showcase their latest solutions for measurement, analysis and machine control in the industry.

Visitors to the stand will be able to see how Bromley Sports uses Hexagon’s ROMER Absolute Arm portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM) and laser scanner for measurement and reverse engineering to CAD, and Vero Software’s VISI CAD CAM solution for component, tooling and jig design. 

“Bromley Sports is a great example of our ‘sensing, thinking and acting’ approach in action at a customer who is using the very latest composite materials to create highly-aerodynamic products,” said Fabien Ducarde, Arm Sales Manager at Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence France. “We are really pleased to show this unique application at a prestigious event like JEC World, and we are excited to meet other composites industry professionals to discuss how they could also benefit from our technologies for gathering, analysing and actively using measurement data in their processes.”

Hexagon will also be demonstrating a range of other portable metrology solutions including the popular ROMER Absolute Arm Compact CMM and the ultra-portable Leica Absolute Tracker AT960 with Leica T-Probe handheld probing system for large-volume measurements, while Vero Software will show its VISI CFAO, WorkNC FAO and WorkPLAN ERP solutions.

JEC World 2016 takes place 8-10 March at Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre. Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence and Vero Software will be located on Stand P62 in Hall A5.
