Check.jpg MAJOR ENHANCED: END SCANNING IS MUCH IMPROVED

The end scan algorithm in version 2.9 much faster than previous versions and is it also much better at finding the correct furthest point in the scan.

This change alone is worth the upgrade. It makes end-scanning much easier and more reliable.

Check.jpg NEW - ASSEMBLY

VTube now allows you to include multiple tubes in a single project.

  • Add new tubes to existing tubes.
  • Measure all the tubes together.
  • Align all the tubes at the same time or separately.

Check.jpg ENHANCED - Bender NUMBER in BENDER SETUP Saved and Recalled with Project File

Customers that have many benders prefer to have the bender number saved in the project file because it is normal to associate the project with a bender.

So now VTube saves the Bender Setup bender number to the project file.

Check.jpg ENHANCED - REMOVED "KEEP CUT PLANE" DIALOG

Customers never choose any other option than to keep the current cut plane, so we removed this dialog to save time.

Check.jpg NEW: END POINT DIMENSION DURING MEASUREMENT

VTube now automatically draws a linear dimension in the viewport between the scanned point and the final offset point to confirm that the distance is correct.

Check.jpg NEW: IMPORT VECTOR LASERVISION PRT FILES

VTube can now import Laservision PRT files.

  • It can import single PRT files.
  • It can import multiple PRT files into a single assembly.
  • It can batch-convert multiple PRT file into a folder of VTube project files (VTP).



Check.jpg NEW: IMPORT MULTIPLE SUPRAVISION FILES

VTube can now import multiple Supravision files.

  • It can import single Supravision files.
  • It can import multiple Supravision files into a single assembly.
  • It can batch-convert multiple Supravision files into a folder of VTube project files (VTP).

Check.jpg ENHANCED: MORE USER INTERFACE SKINS TO CHOOSE FROM

There are now many more skins to choose from in System Options.

Check.jpg NEW: REMOVED END SCAN DIAMETER TOLERANCE RESTRICTION

VTube would allow you to stop measurements that were too far from the end of the actual diameter surface of the tube. This does nothing but frustrate end users. Sometimes it is necessary to scan points that are far from the diameter. So we removed this limitation.

Check.jpg NEW: MADE CHANGES FOR FARO USB DRIVER VERSION 6

The version 6 driver for FARO would sometimes not reconnect after having left the scanner control window, so VTube now automatically disconnects and reconnects when you exit that window.

Check.jpg NEW IMPORT FEATURE: IMPORT MULTIPLE SOLID EDGE FILES

Import multiple SOLID EDGE files at one time into an ASSEMBLY.

Check.jpg OTHER CHANGES

  • The PREVIOUS feature that steps back in the measurement step during measurement had some serious bugs. They are fixed. (NOTE: Do not use the "Previous" command in earlier versions.)
