Made to Measure Now Does Software


Made to Measure is excited to announce that we are theofficial Midwest distributor for PAS software! PAS is a fast, accurate and easy-to-use CMM software package that can get your part from design to inspection in minutes!


PAS Inspection Lifecycle Management (ILM)


From the CAD model to the CMM stylus in minutes - not hours
With PAS ILM, you control the integrity of the CAD model from design all the way to inspection with no translation, no alteration and no interpretation.



PAS Inspection Lifecycle Management makes CMM programming easy. Simply create your dimensions and GD&T in Solidworks, Pro-E, or CATIA like you do already. PAS Inspection will automatically balloon the drawings for you and PAS CMM will automatically create a DMIS-based CMM program – many times in less than 5 minutes!



Don’t have Solidworks, Pro-E or CATIA? No problem! PAS CMM allows you to take your IGES or STEP model and add Dimensions and GD&T from your PDF right to your CAD model. PAS CMM will take your added data and automatically create a DMIS-based CMM program from it.



Once you've done your inspection, PAS Inspection Manager stores and collates your data for easy access viewing. Have a specific form you need to put your data in? PAS has built-in export macros that can be tailored to fit your specific forms.

Rebuilt CMM Equipment That's Like New


Why not get the latest technology without spending your money on a new frame?


Made to Measure has been in the measuring business since 1985. We've learned to do it well. And now we're helping our customers do it themselves with rebuilt CMM's outfitted with the latest technology, and upgraded, painted, and programmed—ready to go to work for you.



When we rebuild a CMM, we do more than wipe the dust off and give it a fresh coat of paint. We put in brand new air lines, wiring, controller, joystick, and computer system. We check all the scales, encoders, motors and air bearings, and we will refurbish or replace as necessary. We'll repair the granite surface and repaint the machine. We also include a brand new license of PAS ILM software for ultra-fast programming from CAD.


Not enough? We can also replace the existing probing with a new Renishaw PH20 probe to cut your inspection times in half!



Now your quality assurance department will be faster, more efficient, and have saved money doing it. Bottom line...well, the bottom line is that you will have a better bottom line.
