Stop re-typing data

Import CMM and vision-system output and let the engine clean, map and validate it.

Stop juggling spreadsheets

Reports, capability studies, gauge records and schedules live in a single database.

Stop guessing on quality

Cpk/Ppk, ANOVA and tolerance checks update live as measurements change.

Everything in one suite

Four core modules. One source of truth.

Each module shares the same job data, equipment records and users, so nothing is entered twice.

FAI & ISIR Inspection

Load engineering drawings, auto-balloon dimensions with OCR, enter or import measurements, and generate complete inspection reports with instant out-of-tolerance flagging. Includes built-in instant SPC analysis directly within the inspection table. Available with or without 3D CAD metrology (inspect native STEP, IGES, and STL models in 2D, 3D, or split view, and align 3D scan meshes with real-time surface deviation colormaps).

Statistical Process Control (SPC) Analysis

Comprehensive 5-step guided wizard for short and long-term capability (Cp, Cpk, Pp, Ppk). Type measurements manually, import external measurement files, or load internal FAI reports directly. Features intelligent column mapping, inline data editing and cleaning, advanced control charts, normal probability plots, cavity stratification, and audit-ready PDF reporting.

Calibration & Gauge R&R

Complete calibration lifecycle: master inventory, calibration schedules, printable QR stickers, and automatic Non-Conformance Report (NCR) generation. Includes integrated Gauge Repeatability & Reproducibility (GR&R) studies with Two-Way ANOVA & X̄-R metrology analysis, variance components, and automated acceptance verdicts.

Workload & Capacity Planning

Plan and track inspection tickets against shop capacity. Visualize weekly planned demand, resource load balancing per inspector, and the breakdown between FAI, SPC, and patrol inspection jobs.

How it works

Drawing in. Report out.

  1. 1

    Set up the job

    Enter part, revision and inspector details, then load the customer drawing or 3D CAD model.

  2. 2

    Balloon the drawing

    Annotate features manually or use Auto-Balloon. Draw a box to OCR a dimension straight off the print.

  3. 3

    Bring in measurements

    Type them in, or import CMM / vision output. Tolerances are checked and auto-corrected as you go.

  4. 4

    Review & report

    Check capability, flag out-of-tolerance features, and export audit-ready PDF/Excel reports with your company branding.

Smart import engine

Messy files in. Clean data out.

CMM output is rarely tidy. ImrPRO uses a central parsing engine so each machine format stays simple and the heavy lifting is done once — and done right.

  • Fuzzy header matching maps columns even when names differ between machines
  • Number scrubbing strips stray text and symbols so the math never breaks
  • Encoding detection reads files regardless of how they were saved
  • Tolerance auto-correction — geometric callouts (e.g. Position, Flatness) get a 0 lower limit; one-sided tolerances are mirrored
  • No silent failures — empty or corrupt files trigger a clear warning, never a crash

FAQ

Common questions

What does ImrPRO run on?

ImrPRO is a native Windows desktop application (Windows 10/11 64-bit) distributed with a standard installer.

Which file formats can I import?

Reports from CMM and vision systems (including Zeiss Calypso, FARO CAM2, PC-DMIS, Mitutoyo MCOSMOS, Aberlink, Keyence and Micro-Vu), CAD files (STEP, IGES, STL), scanner meshes (STL, PLY, OBJ), and Excel spreadsheets.

How does the Gauge R&R study calculate variation?

Studies calculate measurement system variation using Two-Way ANOVA and X̄-R methods, evaluating %GRR (%Study Variation), %Tolerance (%P/T), %Contribution, and Number of Distinct Categories (ndc ≥ 5) with automated acceptance verdicts.

Does it work offline?

Yes. ImrPRO's default mode needs no internet connection at all. Data is stored in a local SQLite database, and CAD parsing, OCR, SPC calculations and PDF generation all run on your PC. It is completely suitable for air-gapped environments.

Can several people share the same data on our network?

Yes. Workstations can use a shared database on your local network, so everyone sees the same jobs, equipment and calibration records. Larger multi-workstation sites can use an on-premise PostgreSQL server instead. Either way, your data stays inside your firewall.

Does it connect to our ERP or MRP system?

ImrPRO has a built-in bridge for Epicor ERP / Kinetic: it can pull job details and push inspection records through the REST API. For any other ERP or MRP, it exchanges data through DMT-style CSV files, JSON traveler tickets and watched hot-folders. If your system can import or export CSV or JSON, it can work with ImrPRO.

Can we showcase our own company logo on reports?

Yes. In Settings > Company Branding, you can upload your company logo (PNG, JPG, SVG). Every generated PDF report (FAI inspection packages, Calibration Certificates, and NCRs) automatically includes your logo and header information.

Is it secure for sensitive drawings and CAD?

ImrPRO runs as a normal Windows user process. It needs no administrator rights and opens zero listening network ports. Drawings and defense CAD files are never uploaded to an external server, because all processing happens locally in RAM.

What are the system requirements?

Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), an Intel Core i5 / AMD Ryzen 5 or better, 8 GB RAM (16 GB recommended for large 3D files), 1.5 GB of disk space, and an OpenGL 3.3+ graphics card for the 3D viewport.
