Carl Zeiss IMT will be
introducing the next generation of TiMS software, the ACCTeePro integrated software
for surface finish, form and geometry, at the 2009 Quality Expo held in Chicago
on September 22 -24th. ACCTeePro, a product of Accretech, was developed with
the knowledge that customers are looking for a simple user interface where measurement
and analysis are seamless, more commonly known as "all in the document".

"We look forward to introducing this to the North American market at
this year’s Quality Expo," says Marty Morgan, Carl Zeiss Business
Manager for SF&G. "With support from Carl Zeiss IMT and our customers,
Accretech developed the ACCTeePro software for SF&G, and we are very excited
to have this available and ready to show."
The ACCTeePro software, which will replace the TiMS software, will have many
valuable benefits for customers. "What’s key for customers is the
new user interface with its simple 'all in the document' one screen viewing,"
states Morgan. "There is a significant improvement between the simplicity
and ease of use, for both manual and CNC programming that you will find in this
new software."
Important upgrades and key benefits for users include:
- Simple part programming with an easy-to-use line editor.
- ACCTeePro contains all the information including the layout, measurement
condition, analysis condition, measurement data, and part program in one document.
- The results screen is fully configurable by the user, which becomes the
output format.
- In the event of an error, ACCTeePro has a self-diagnostic function.
- ACCTeePro introduces an on-line manual system so the operator can click
on a soft key for a help message.
- ACCTeePro software is Windows Vista® compatible.
We expect the new ACCTeePro software to position Carl Zeiss as the industry
leader in the surface finish, roundness and contour measurement, similar to
our popular and revolutionary CMM based CALYPSO software. For information on
