(Creaform: Levis, Quebec) -- Creaform has released VXelements, a new software platform that enables 3-D data acquisition from any of the technological solutions developed by the company, including the Handyscan 3-D family of laser scanners and the HandyPROBE/C-Track line of optical coordinate measurement machines (CMM).

VXelements consists of three software modules: VXscan, VXprobe (formerly HPS), and the new VXtrack. The new software brings together all the necessary tools into a unified, user-friendly, and intuitive working environment while adding new functions and capabilities to the previous software versions.

VXscan offers the possibility to thoroughly scan any part at any given resolution within the scanners’ range, without any limitations due to part size. It also improves offline work by offering a user or multiple users the possibility to merge the scans and reconstruct surfaces using different session files. Another feature is automatic hole-filling. VXprobe retains all the functions from the preceding software but now shares the same integrated and user-friendly interface with the other modules.
