VTube-LASER uses the laser scanner and/or ball probe to:

1. Measure tube, pipe, and wire shapes
2. Qualify the shape or path of the part based on centerline tolerances
3. Correct bending machines
4. Reverse-engineer existing parts
5. Print reports
6. Quickly import and export tube data from other software
7. Remove the need for tube fixtures and gauges to qualify parts.

VTube-LASER Clients

Examples of actual clients:

Benefit 1 - Super Quick Project Setup

Other measurement programs are often more generic in their approach to geometry. In order to measure a tube, it is necessary to build up individual elements and create a script for the process.

Because VTube assumes that you will be measuring a tube shape, the project setup is very quick and easy - saving hundreds of steps required in other programs.

Benefit 2 - Built-in Automated Process for Measuring Tubes

You don't have to guess at the order of the steps to measure a tube. When you measure a tube with VTube, the methods for gathering the information and calculating the centerline, intersection points, and bend data are preprogrammed as a series of consistent steps that never change and never have to be scripted.

VTube knows what you should give it, and it will always request that data in order using the Measure a Tube control window.
