Even non-expert CAD users can quickly get to grips with the software's measurement functions and immediately obtain good results, by making use of the software's predefined selection modes (points, 2D entities, planes, surfaces, etc).

Measurements can be automatically included as measurement entities and can be anchored to characteristic points of the part. Entity labels automatically pivot to remain visible at all times.

WorkXPlore 3D's specialist measurement functions allow expert CAD users to recover point clusters from three-dimensional measuring equipment or machine probes and to quickly control data versus the original CAD geometry. The software also allows users to easily generate control point files for transmission to three-dimensional measuring equipment or NC machines.

Functions include : Coordinates; Distance between points; Numerous point snap functions; Distance between planes, surfaces; Numerous plane selection commands; Minimum distances between any surface groups; Angle measurements; Automatic or 3 point radius/diameter measurement; Manual or automatic measurement insertion; Control based on point clusters; Control point creation using probe radius.
