GageMate Precision Gaging Software

Precision Measurement applications require users to measure parts and determine if that part is good or

bad. Until now, the software available to these users has required a steep learning curve and many trial

and error sessions before it could be effectively implemented on the shop floor.

But that was before GageMate from GageSoft. GageMate is a precision measurement software package

designed to collect and store measurement data from manual, semi-automatic, and automatic inspection

systems. GageMate uses clear and simple color-coded graphics that minimize training time, startup time

and the potential for operator error. And this capability also minimizes differences from one user to the

next, ensuring reproducible results across different operators and different shifts.

GageMate Data Collect Features

GageMate Data Collect (GageMate DC) is used by operators on the plant floor to inspect parts and store

the resultant data. It has been designed for easy use with touch screens and provides access to all

functions typically required on the plant floor.

GageMate Setup Program

The GageMate Setup Editor (GageMate SE) provides access to the GageMate configuration tools.

GageMate SE provides everything necessary to define inspection sequences and part measurements,

including custom gage screens to lead the operator through the inspection process. GageMate SE can be

used to create applications for manual, semi-automatic, and automatic gage applications.

Creating Measurements

GageMate incorporates measurement

templates to assist you with measurement

formulas. Users can create equations simply

by selecting the desired template and entering

the required values. This reduces the need for

operator training and speeds up the

measurement creation process.

Inspection Sequence

The inspection sequence is displayed visually allowing for

an easy understanding of the inspection process.

Inspection sequences can be easily modified using drag and

drop operations. Features, Feature Groups, Events, and

measurements can all be moved using drag/drop

operations. When an object is dragged to another location

of the sequence, all pages and measurements go with it.

What use to take many hours can now be done in minutes.

All sequence objects can also be copied. Copying an event

also copies all pages and measurements belonging to the

event. This virtually eliminates time consuming repetitive

operations.

Events can be named for easy reference

The sequence can be created so that the operator can

dynamically select which portions of it he wishes to

perform

Faulty inputs can be disabled. The input is then

automatically removed from the master sequence and all

measurements using the input are also disabled. If all

measurements taken on an event are disabled, the event is automatically suppressed. This can be

of great use for those customers unable to maintain spare parts inventory.

Page Editor

Custom pages can be created for

operators to view

All measurements are color

coded for easy determination of

measurement accept/reject status

Pages allow all measurement

data to be viewed in a format of

your choice

Multiple pages are allowed for

each event for display of

reference information such as

probe locations and gage

maintenance recommendations

Dynamic page objects include data fields,

column fields, and target fields for use

with true position measurements.

Static page objects include lines, text, and

images.

Data and column fields are available in a

variety of sizes and can automatically

display measurement names and limits

Measurement names and limits are

automatically positioned to the top, bottom,

left, or right of a field

If a measurement name or limit is changed,

all screens automatically update
