InnovMetric Software Beats the Economic Odds

PolyWorks sales increase, and a new training facility opens.

(InnovMetric Software: Quebec City, QC, Canada) -- InnovMetric Software is proud to announce that in its past fiscal year (April 2009 to March 2010), its worldwide sales of PolyWorks/Inspector Probing licenses have increased by 71 percent. During the same period of time, several automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in North America and Europe have purchased significant numbers of PolyWorks/Inspector Probing licenses with the purpose of deploying one universal 3-D metrology software platform within specific departments. PolyWorks/Inspector Probing offers plug-ins for all major probing brands and technologies at no extra charge, and a total compatibility with the PolyWorks point-cloud metrology solution. Additional business benefits of the PolyWorks probing solution include increased efficiency, reduced training costs, corporatewide measurement-result sharing, and a common interface to all portable measurement hardware.


In addition to the remarkable growth of its sales in the tactile measurement market, InnovMetric Software has been able to grow its global sales revenue in the same period, thanks to solid performances in the last two quarters ending March 2010.

“In spite of the major economic slowdown from January to September 2009, we’ve been able to keep the company profitable at every quarter without reducing expenses,” says Marc Soucy, president of InnovMetric Software. “Since October 2009, we can measure a significant growth in our sales figures as well as a major progression in terms of our market share in industrial manufacturing applications. We are very optimistic about the year to come.”

In a separate release, the company announced that, following the strong recent growth of PolyWorks users in the Western United States, InnovMetric Software’s business partner, 3D Infotech, is proud to announce the opening of a PolyWorks training facility in Irvine, California. The facility, which opened in February 2010, offers a team of PolyWorks application specialists who provide regional classroom training on various PolyWorks modules for new and advanced users.

The 3D Infotech facility will also help to increase the awareness of 3-D metrology in the aerospace industry.

“The local community will have direct access to application specialists to analyze the integration of new metrology-based technologies within their manufacturing processes,” says Rohit Khanna, president of 3D Infotech Inc. “Our specialists will demonstrate how the PolyWorks universal software platform can manage various measurement systems at every phase of the product engineering cycle, to prevent costly mistakes early in the development cycle and accelerate time to market.”
