CMM-Manager Software for any CMM

Why should I run the same software on all metrology hardware?

Running the same metrology software across your CMM, portable arm, and vision system offers major operational, technical, and financial advantages. Here’s why it makes smart business and engineering sense:

✅ 1. Unified Training & Ease of Use

  • One learning curve for your team – operators and programmers only need to master a single interface.
  • Simplifies onboarding and reduces errors caused by switching between different software platforms.

✅ 2. Consistent Measurement Logic

  • You get identical feature definitions, alignments, tolerances, and reporting regardless of which device you use.
  • Ensures results from your CMM, portable arm, and vision system are directly comparable and compliant with the same standards.

✅ 3. Shared Inspection Programs

  • CMM-Manager allows shared or slightly modified programs to run across different devices.
  • Great for moving inspection from offline/offsite to the shop floor or from prototype to production.

✅ 4. Streamlined Reporting

  • Consistent report formats (PDF, Excel, SPC exports) help with internal reviews and external audits.
  • Easier for quality engineers, production teams, and customers to read and interpret data.

✅ 5. Lower Software & Support Costs

  • Fewer licenses and maintenance contracts to manage.
  • Simplifies updates, tech support, and vendor relationships.

✅ 6. Better Workflow Flexibility

  • Run inspections where it makes the most sense – use a portable arm at the machine, the CMM for tight tolerances, and the vision system for small or delicate parts, all with the same interface.
  • Increases redundancy – if one device is down, others can take over.
