OVERVIEW
WHAT IS CMM DATA COLLECTION?
Modern manufacturing quality control relies heavily on precision measurement equipment - from CMMs and vision systems to profilometers and digital gages.
Each measurement device generates critical dimensional data that must be analyzed for process stability and compiled into customer reports.
WHAT MAKES CMM DATA COLLECTION CHALLENGING?
Manufacturers face mounting complexity in collecting and analyzing measurement data across diverse equipment types.
CMMs present particular challenges, with each machine outputting data in proprietary formats and handling GD&T results and multi-place dimensions differently.
THE 1FACTORY CMM DATA COLLECTION SOLUTION
1factory transforms measurement data collection through intelligent auto-upload capabilities that connect directly to CMMs and other measurement devices.
Our platform automatically interprets diverse data formats and instantly generates live SPC charts and process analysis.
FEATURES
1Fully Automated CMM Data Import
Fully automate data collection from CMMs, Vision Systems, and connected digital gages. Data is imported as soon as the CMM outputs the file. Supported devices include Zeiss, Keyence, PCDMIS, Mitutoyo and many more.
2Select and Upload CMM Data Import
Partially automate CMM data import. Import data by selecting CMM output files. Load data for one part or multiple parts. Load either (1) one file per measured part, or (2) multiple files per measured part.
3Multi-Parameter SPC
Instantly generate live SPC charts and enable real-time control of critical features. Detect trends and anomalies quickly at the point of manufacture. Notify engineers and managers of out-of-control events.
4Tabulated Plans
Easily manage tabulated drawings with thousands of configurations via a single Inspection Plan for the family. 1factory automatically generates the inspection sheet for each configuration.

Highlights: CMM Automation & SPC Success at UMC
- Challenge: Automating the output of 30 CMMs into a centralized system in real-time.
- Automation: UMC consolidated 5 separate software systems into 1factory, achieving Fully Automated CMM Data Import.
- Volume: The system manages 100 to 800 features per part, processing over 1 million data points monthly.
- Visibility: Every data point from a CMM probe or vision scan is visible instantly to machinists on the shop floor via Real-Time SPC Charts.
- Training: Technicians required only 15 minutes of training to start using the system effectively.
Transcript Excerpt: "OK, prove it. That was the gauntlet thrown down by UMC... once the inspection data is in 1factory, the software creates a run chart and histogram that shows which part features present the highest risk of failure".
Ultra Machining Company (UMC)
Ultra Machining Company (UMC) is a manufacturer of high-precision components for medical device, aerospace, and defense applications. Products manufactured by UMC are complex, with 100 — 800 features per product. UMC's Quality Control team operates nearly 30 CMM and Vision Systems.
"OK, prove it. This was the gauntlet thrown down by UMC to 1Factory - a challenge to automate the data output of nearly 30 CMMs straight into 1Factory in real time."
"This capability means that every data point from every touch of a CMM probe or scan of a vision machine is visible almost instantly to every machinist at every workstation on the shop floor. Once UMC's inspection data is in 1Factory, the software analyzes the data and creates a run chart and histogram that shows which part features present the highest risk of failure."
