Powerful, Easy-to-Use, Lightning-Fast
Drawing Auto-Ballooning Software.
Balloon drawings, extract notes, dimensions, GD&T, sheet and zone and create a control plan with just a few clicks. Import CMM data and generate FAI reports in minutes.
SPEED-UP DRAWING BALLOONING. SAVE HOURS OF ENGINEERING TIME.
POWERFUL IMAGE PROCESSING
1factory's powerful drawing reading algorithm automatically identifies Notes, threads, surface finish, GD&T (position, parallelism, angularity, perpendicularity, surface profile etc.), and features of size (linear dimensions, diameters, radii etc.).
LIGHTNING-FAST AUTO-BALLOONING
The user can then choose to auto-balloon the whole drawing, or point-and-click to manually balloon only the critical dimensions. Both automated and point-and-click ballooning processes extract the characteristic, nominal, tolerances, sheet & zone to the QC Plan.

PDF DRAWING REVISION COMPARISON
Automatically Comparing PDF Drawing Revisions
In addition to the powerful auto-detection and auto-ballooning capabilities, 1factory also provides powerful drawing revision comparison capability. Customers can instantly find all the changes made between two versions of a drawing by simply loading in the new version of the drawing. 1factory detects the following changes:
- Added Characteristics
- Deleted Characteristics
- Modified Characteristics
- Modified Nominals and Tolerances
- Inserted Notes
- Deleted Notes
CASE STUDIES
Ultra Machining Company (UMC)- Manufacturing QC
UMC is a manufacturer of high-precision components for medical device, aerospace, and defense applications. The products are complex, with 100 — 800 features per product.
With 1factory, UMC successfully consolidated 5 separate QC systems into 1. Today, data is automatically uploaded from 20 CMMs and 8 VCMMs, 24 hours a day. Over 1 million measurements are recorded in 1factory each month. Auto-ballooning speeds up FAI creation. And hours are saved from each PPAP package creation.
Watch a 4-minute video to hear first-hand experiences from the cross-functional UMC team: Machinists, Quality Engineers, Director of Quality, VP of IT, and VP of Operations.
