A true driver, not a cost factor: Measurement software that impresses prospects and leads to machine retrofits
Independence instead of lock-in: No more third-party software required, empowering your own developers for further advancement
Focus on user-centricity: Short onboarding, fewer measurement errors – the solution is intuitive for every role
The client is a family-owned mechanical engineering company specializing in custom systems for production metrology—from in-line measuring machines to manual measuring stations. Their standard: measurement technology that meets the highest technological demands while remaining reliable and easy to operate in production environments.
The purchased standard measurement software was outdated, difficult to learn, and could not be integrated into modern production environments. Its operation and appearance matched neither the brand nor the technological standards of the systems, and a lack of customizability (interfaces, database solutions) often made fulfilling customer requests impossible.
A competitive analysis revealed: almost no user-centricity, with parameterization treated as a task for experts only. The central goal was to significantly reduce training effort, operating errors, and incorrect measurements—for target groups ranging from application and commissioning to operating personnel and measurement technicians.
Instead of a standard solution, we created custom, brand-compliant measurement software—intuitive, efficiently configurable, and modern. The core of the solution:
The client gained independence instead of vendor lock-in and now continues to develop the measurement software in-house to meet specific customer needs. Fewer operating errors, incorrect measurements, and training requirements increase process reliability, while live data and transparent process control boost system availability. The solution is designed for stable operation over many years. It is already in use on several systems in the field, will be rolled out to a large number of additional systems this year, and is intended to equip all new systems in the future. Prospective customers are convinced from the very first impression; clients are even requesting retrofits for existing machines.
