Recommended Workflows

How Hexagon Metrology (CMM) works best with Ignite Lean. These are recommended patterns: Ignite Lean fires the trigger, and how Hexagon Metrology (CMM) routes it (which work group, which device, which rule) is configured to your IT setup.

Inline inspection raises an NC instantly
Trigger A vision system flags a fail
  1. 1Hexagon Metrology (CMM) posts the fail result + defect image to Ignite Lean.
  2. 2Ignite Lean attaches it to the build and opens an NC.
  3. 3The line gates downstream steps until the NC clears.
Quality is enforced at the camera, not just after the fact.
Active recipe pushes to the camera
Trigger A build of a new product starts
  1. 1Ignite Lean pushes the active recipe / inspection model to Hexagon Metrology (CMM).
  2. 2The camera switches to the right configuration automatically.
  3. 3Operators never select a recipe by hand.
No mis-set cameras, no false fails.
