RapidForm software is used to generate parametric models from point cloud data collected by digital measurement equipment including Coordinate Measurement Machines (CMM) and laser scanning devices. The software interfaces with JXSQ's existing digital measurement equipment as well as 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) modeling software. JXSQ personnel are formally trained on this software and have been utilizing it as our primary means of vehicle and other subassemblies model generation for almost four years. The efficiency of model generation using the various tools built into the software as well as the increased accuracy made possible by the Accuracy Analyzer feature in this software have led to an increase in requests for JXSQ to provide these services.
