Computer Requirements
Depending on your measuring devices, CAD model file sizes, and applications, we recommend certain CPU, RAM, and operating system specifications to optimize your 3D inspection experience. Check out our Minimum and Recommended computer system setups.
3D Measurement Device and CAD File Compatibility
The PolyWorks|Inspector universal software platform allows you to operate any portable and fixed coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) for probing and scanning applications. These include articulated arms, CNC CMMs, laser line and structured light scanners, laser trackers, handheld optically tracked devices, photogrammetry-based devices, digital gauges, and more. See the complete list of available device plug-ins.
For other 3D measurement devices not directly supported by the plug-ins, PolyWorks|Inspector supports 38 point cloud formats describing planar grids/meshes, line scans, spherical grids, and unorganized point clouds.
PolyWorks|Inspector lets you import neutral and native CAD files from major brands of professional CAD platforms, along with their associated Product Manufacturing Information (PMI). Our CAD file importers are continually updated to support the latest CAD software versions. Here are the supported CAD file formats.
