Solutions About Voxels

Volume Graphics is a world leading provider of software technologies for analysis, processing and visualization of voxel (volumetric) data serving high tech branches like major healthcare, automobile and aerospace companies around the world.

Shaw Inspection Systems is an official reseller of Volume Graphics software products, and has been providing software, support, and training since 2000. Products, such as VGStudio MAX 2.0, can be provided as part of a complete CT system, or separately.

Industrial Solutions

With its innovative solutions in non-destructive-testing, quality control, rapid prototyping and reverse engineering Volume Graphics enables high tech branches to improve quality, increase productivity, lower development cycle times and consequently costs. The inherent advantages of voxel based visualization and analysis tools allow its users to work interactively, regardless of their environment and according to their particular needs. This means a superior work flow, faster iteration, and reduced costs.

VGStudio MAX 2.0

VGStudio MAX is the industry's leading voxel data visualization and analysis system. It introduces new concepts in handling largest voxel data sets e.g. from modern medical or industrial CT-scanners as well as seismic data sets from the oil and gas exploring industry or any other 3D imaging device. Truly interactive rendering and real-time 3D image processing of data sets up to 20 Gbyte in size is possible with VGStudio MAX. The system's advanced performance features allow users to work interactively, regardless of their environment and according to their particular needs.
