Geomagic Control X
Streamlined 3D Inspection with Automated Workflows

A powerful scan vs CAD inspection platform built for production environments. Automate GD&T analysis, deviation checks, and inspection routines with confidence.

Why Control X?

  • Comprehensive 3D inspection solution – Instantly align scans to CAD, evaluate deviations, and generate inspection reports.
  • Designed for automation – Set up workflows once; new parts flow through scan → save → auto-inspect → report.
  • Scalable & shop-floor ready – Handle large datasets, multiple scanners or arms, and allow users across departments to contribute.

Quickly align scan data to CAD models and visualize deviations with intuitive color maps.

Works seamlessly with any 3D scanner or portable CMM, with native support for leading devices.

Evaluate all geometric tolerances, from size and form to orientation and location, in compliance with industry standards.

Set up inspection routines once and re-use them, enabling fully automated, repeatable inspections for production environments.

Inspect multiple parts or datasets in one run, ideal for high-throughput environments.

Generate detailed, graphical reports tailored to customer, project, or regulatory needs.
