What Verisurf Software does

Verisurf Software, Inc. is a US-based 3D metrology software company founded in 1993 and headquartered in Anaheim, California. The company develops a model-based inspection (MBI) platform built on top of the Mastercam CAD/CAM platform that drives coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), portable CMMs, laser trackers, scan arms, and structured-light scanners across a common software environment. Its offering is organized into six solution suites — Metrology Enterprise, CMM Programming & Inspection, Inspection & Analysis, 3D Scanning & Reverse Engineering, Tool Building & Inspection, and Scan Data Suite — supported by core software modules (CAD, Measure, Build, Analysis, Automate, Universal CMM, Reverse, Quick Surface, Validatel, SDK, Mobile, Translators) and proprietary hardware including the Master3DGage, 3DGage, and CMM Master devices. Differentiators include native Mastercam integration, an open device compatibility layer (Universal CMM) that supports legacy and proprietary CMM controllers, real-time deviation color mapping, and the elimination of 2D inspection drawings in favor of intelligent 3D CAD models with GD&T data. The company generates revenue through software licenses and subscriptions, professional services and training (Verisurf University), and complementary hardware sales, distributed via direct enterprise sales and a global channel network including Renishaw, Hexagon, Scantech Digital, Accurate CMM Services, OptiPro Systems, Mena3D, and INSTRO. Customers are concentrated in aerospace and defense (SpaceX, Boom, F-35 canopy manufacturing, Blackhawk MRO, Coast Composites, Haas F1, Flying S Manufacturing) and precision manufacturing (Hyatt Die Cast, Morgan Motor Company), with additional presence in automotive, medical devices, semiconductor, and tool-and-die. In March 2025, Verisurf was acquired by Swedish industrial group Sandvik AB and now operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary within Sandvik's digital manufacturing portfolio.
