What Creaform.OS is
Creaform.OS is integrated operating software included with Creaform 3D measuring and scanning devices. It supports acquisition workflows with Creaform 3D scanners, optical CMMs, probes, and photogrammetry, with real-time capture and mesh reconstruction. The software runs on Windows 11 and can export IGES, STEP, and DXF files. Its interface, tools, embedded content, and tutorials are intended to help new users learn Creaform scanners and optical CMMs.
Creaform’s Metrology Suite offers Scan-to-CAD, Inspection, Automation, and Dynamic Tracking modules. Their uses range from CAD modeling from scan data and dimensional quality inspection to automated measurement, assembly monitoring, and robot calibration. Creaform.OS Viewer is a free download for viewing 3D meshes and complete inspection programs, and for reviewing inspection results with colleagues or clients. The core software is paid, with pricing on request; Creaform directs prospective buyers to ask an expert or request a demo to select modules.
