QC Plus® Scan-to-Path™

AI-enhanced robotic automation for real-world manufacturing variation.

QC Plus® Scan-to-Path™ turns 3D scan data into production-ready robot paths, so automated processes adapt to each part’s actual condition instead of assuming it matches the CAD model.

The Manufacturing Challenge

Manufacturing Reality Doesn’t Perfectly Match Engineered Models.

Composite parts distort. Forgings vary. Weldments move. Tooling drifts over time. Traditional automation assumes every part is identical, leaving engineers to re-teach paths, hand-compensating and building in margin to keep processes running.

The result: more scrap, longer setup, and less trust in automation.

 

 

How It Works

Scan. Adapt. Execute.

QC Plus® closes the gap between design intent and manufacturing reality in four steps:

  1. Scan – capture real 3D measurement data from the actual part
  2. Adapt – leveraging machine learning, QC Plus identifies part features and generates a robot path matching part condition
  3. Execute – the robot performs the manufacturing process based on real conditions, not assumptions

Why It's Different.

Production-Ready AI for Manufacturing

QC Plus® uses supervised machine learning to enhance robotic path generation, not replace engineering judgment. It combines 3D measurement data, deterministic execution, and traceable decision-making with machine learning so you get adaptive performance without losing repeatability or accountability.

AI should enhance manufacturing expertise. Not replace it.

Built on metrology and automation engineering expertise, QC Plus® delivers:

  • Less scrap and rework
  • Faster robotic deployment
  • Automatic adaptation to part-to-part variation
  • Traceable, repeatable execution for high-value production

Why Manufacturers Choose MAS

More Than Software

MAS combines advanced software, metrology expertise, and real-world automation experience built around four pillars:

  1. Metrology – accurate, traceable 3D measurement designed for direct integration with automation
  2. Inspection – actionable inspection outputs that enable confident decision-making and minimize rework, scrap, and process variability
  3. Adaptive Path Generation – Reliable translation of 3D vision and measurement data into precise, scan-driven robotic motion aligned to actual part conditions rather than nominal geometry models
  4. Adaptive Process Control – use of 3D and inspection data to inform and adapt automated process execution, compensating for part-to-part and process variability to improve yield, reduce scrap, reduce multiple process span into single automated process workflow while enhancing product quality.

The FANUC Advantage

QC Plus® is built with a deep integration with FANUC robotics, pairing FANUC’s industrial robotic platform with MAS’s metrology, inspection, and adaptive path generation expertise. That combination means proven, production-hardened hardware working in lockstep with software that adjusts to each part’s real-world condition.

The result: robotic automation that’s both reliable at scale and adaptable to manufacturing variation, backed by two companies with deep expertise in their respective domains.
