Kotem Technologies recently released an enhanced version of SmartFit 3D, its best-fitting and analysis software.Taking measured-part data from popular coordinate measurement machine, video and laser metrology systems, SmartFit 3D troubleshoots manufacturing processes and finds the best coordinate system for machining and assembly. The software assesses profile tolerances on complex surfaces, provides advice on corrections by simulation, and solves misalignment and location problems so that parts can be repositioned. The new version of the software builds on these capabilities with better visualization and data control, and simplifies the user’s experience with a redesigned graphical user interface and expanded import/export functionality. The program is used by Airbus, the French company that is building the A380, the world’s first double-decker jetliner.

“These enhancements to SmartFit 3D simplify the user experience while providing greater insight into the manufacturing process,” says Kostadin Doytchinov, Kotem Technologies founder and president. “SmartFit 3D software is trusted worldwide to assist skilled manufacturing, design and inspection engineers in identifying weak points and the actions needed to improve results.”
