Description

In this course, you will receive a comprehensive introduction to using the ZEISS INSPECT 3D software. This course is designed for beginners who want to learn the fundamentals of 3D metrology and efficiently integrate the software into their workflow.At the start, you will become familiar with the user interface and the basic functionalities of the software, such as importing CAD and mesh data, using selection tools, and applying the Local Best-Fit method. These initial steps will enable you to perform simple inspections, such as surface comparisons and cross-section analyses, to quickly identify deviations.In the next section, you will dive into more complex inspections, including diameter checks, distance measurements, and angle analyses. You will also learn how to perform precise measurements even without CAD data and create step projects to ensure the highest accuracy in your analyses.The course also covers 2D inspections, teaching you how to generate cross-sections and construct 2D elements commonly used in metrology. An additional focus is placed on form and positional tolerances, where you will measure tolerances and apply reference systems for precise measurements.Finally, you will learn how to properly document your measurement results and present them in a structured inspection report. This course provides you with a practical foundation to confidently and efficiently use ZEISS INSPECT Optical 3D while advancing your skills in 3D metrology.
