PC-DMIS Gear 2.5 verse Qunindos Gear 7?

Hello there.

My requirement is to measure and report on SPUR (straight, helical & double helical) and BEVEL (straight, spiral) gears. Could anyone share an opinion on PC-DMIS Gear Verse Qunindos Gear?

Additional questions:

  1. Am I correct in thinking that whilst both software packages cover my measurement requirement, Quindos is more comprehensive (and complex)? Is it overkill for my requirements?


  2. I read here that PCDMIS gear use advanced gear measurement algorithms of QUINDOS - is this true?


  3. Since Quindos is certified by Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) of Germany - is the same true for PC-DMIS?


  4. I read here for Quindos that all travel paths, probing points and scanning lines are created automatically - does the same hold true for PC-DMIS Gear?


  5. Why has Hexagon developed two different software packages for gear inspection? (What is the history?)



Thanks in advance.

  • I started with Quindos and moved over to PCgear.

    #1 They all have the power to do what you are looking for. Quindos was overkill for us.
    #2. Yes Quindos will do anything you can think of it is how ever nothing like PCdmis at all.
    I do not run bevel gearing I do run OD gearing straight and helix and spline shafts, ID gearing straight and ID splines. Quindos and PCgear use the same style K-chart.
    #3 Don’t know about Quindos, I check to Agma standards in PCgear. PCgear checks other standards also.
    #4 PCgear will also creat gear checking programs .
