Wilcox Associates is the software arm of Hexagon Metrology, the world's leading producer of measurement machines. With over 30,000 seats in place, our PC-DMIS sets the standard for metrology software for Coordinate Measurement Machines. PC-DMIS technology is the foundation of our Enterprise Metrology Solutions (EMS) suite of software products, which focuses on the collection, evaluation, management and presentation of dimensional data and information to support lean manufacturing initiatives.

EMS is the idea driving our software development. Its goal is to provide manufacturers of all sizes making all sorts of parts with a platform and tools for building metrology systems capable of sharing data and information seamlessly. This meshes perfectly with the THINC philosophy. By interfacing with THINC, we extend the range of both systems. Direct communications between the machine tool and the measurement software provides immediate feedback to the shop floor.

Okuma's THINC philosophy meshes perfectly with our systemic approach to metrology applications. By providing for a seamless link between the machine tool and the measurement software, it makes it easy to use metrology to improve manufacturing operations with maximum effectiveness and minimal disruption.

Hexagon Metrology provides THINC customers seeking on-machine measurement capability with an enterprise-oriented take on metrology applications. Our PC-DMIS Enterprise Metrology Solutions (EMS) suite of software packages is a set of programming, measurement, evaluation and reporting tools usable across a wide range of measurement devices including CMMs, vision machines, portable measurement devices and CNC machines.
