The world of production is becoming smarter and smarter – and more and more complex. That’s why it’s important for machine controllers to navigate users to their goal quickly and reliably. Graphic user guidance, especially, is a major aid in simplifying intuitive controlling through the measuring program. Custom adjustment options for differ- ent workplaces and operators that allow them to block or lock all the functions they don’t need provide a more easily understandable interface. Information saved in the software, for instance on tool assembly, ensures process- es are standardized and efficient. Standard processes can be initiated at the push of a button, helping avoid errors and increasing speed. Data is transmitted digitally, re- placing error-prone, timeconsuming manual input. Other key features include seamless communication between software systems and expansion options for future challenges. From the CAM system to the warehouse to the machine, everything needs to work together, and new functions have to be easy to integrate. Truly great software should be able to learn and should be easy to communicate with. It should also offer easy operation to everyone – with as little training as possible. Reliably achieving precise measuring results: »pilot« software, trusted for decades worldwide, easily guides users through different programs with a graphic interface – for instance using dynamic cross-hairs (1), a tool library (2) and cutting edge shape detection (3).
