Featuring an intuitive visual interface and reverse engineering capabilities, QUINDOS makes gear measurement fast and efficient. Moving paths, probe points and scan lines are all automatically generated based on the nominal gear parameters. A range of programming tools make it easy to build gear inspection routines. Reports can also be generated and shared.

In addition to the geometrical parameters, information on profile and helix, pitch, run-out, and specialised measurements can be effortlessly transferred between systems.

The advanced gear measurement algorithms in QUINDOS are certified to a wide range of international standards such as DIN, ISO, JIS, AGMA, ANSI, CNOMO and also meets individual industrial standards.
