Share measurements immediately

Flexijet has released FlexiCAD 3.3, the latest software accompanying the Flexijet 3D digital measurement system. This release includes Flexijet Livestream, a live camera view of the points being measured, adding even more flexibility when measuring outdoors or in bright light situations. With Flexijet 3D and FlexiCAD, measurement drawings are created in real time on the jobsite, allowing for the immediate verification of as-built measurements and eliminating the need to return to site after drafting for verification. Flexijet can move to aim its laser back at points, allowing users to mark out mounting and drill points and visually verify measurements. Adjustments are made in real time while on-site, reducing the risk of later human and drafting errors and streamlining the measurement verification process. Flexijet 3D is helping the glass industry transition from traditional manual measuring methods to accurate digital measurements. Flexijet 3D’s Next Generation laser technology allows it to capture sub-millimeter-accurate 2D and 3D measurements of actual site conditions. This accuracy helps to reduces errors and end the need for costly reworks or adjustments, resulting in substantial cost savings for glass fabricators. The measurement drawings created with FlexiCAD are detailed and accurate, providing a digital representation of the site conditions and outages as well as final designs. Digital measurement drawings also facilitate effective communication between the fabricators and other stakeholders, such as architects, contractors, and clients. And digital measurement files can be shared directly with suppliers to eliminate the chance of human error or miscommunication. By replacing manual methods with digital measurement technology, Flexijet 3D improves efficiency, enhances accuracy and enables the seamless transfer of measurements. With its CAD-centered editing power, the FlexiCAD software empowers glass fabricators to deliver perfect installations, reduce costs and stay at the forefront of innovation in the glass industry.
