Open X Education, an interactive learning platform, is collaborating withVerisurf Software Inc.to provide a metrology learning program designed for those seeking a career in the manufacturing and metrology industry or for professionals seeking to expand their skills.

The course focuses on CMM programming forinspection, and quality reporting of manufactured parts and assemblies, including programming of Renishaw 5-axis probing systems. Upon completion, students receive a CMM programing and inspection certification.

Open X is an online learning platform that is well suited for working professionals who require flexibility. The CMM Programing and Inspection course is the latest metrology course following the Fundamentals of Reverse Engineering and Verisurf Quick Surface courses. As a practical contributor to the Open X metrology curriculum, it is said Verisurf provides examples of real-world workflows, best practices and contributions from individuals who have many years of experience in the field.

“We developed the Open X learning platform specifically for working professionals and students looking to advance their current career or get started in a new career,” says Cody James, Open X CEO. “We have found that collaborating with experts, such as Verisurf, gives our curriculum a practical advantage over theory-based learning. Students emerge better qualified and prepared for the realities of the profession.”

Verisurf Software is built on a CAD platform and used throughout the CMM Programing and Inspection course. Verisurf has experience in developing and supporting metrology software solutions rooted in Model-Based Definition (MBD). At the heart of MBD is the CAD model, which can define a part or entire product to provide a defined 3D data set, including all necessary GD&T annotations for inspection, measurement, analysis, tool building and reverse engineering.

Verisurf training using the Open X online platform is available 24/7 to any organization or individual seeking to learn dimensional metrology skills needed in today's technology-based and automated manufacturing environments. Courses can be accessed using a desktop computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone.
