MAESTRO software

Software that transforms workflows into insight

Software that transforms workflows into insight

MAESTRO is powered by a suite of smart, integrated software tools designed to improve every stage of your inspection process – from no-code programming and digital twin simulation to real-time asset monitoring and automated reporting. Built for collaboration and connectivity, each solution helps turn metrology data into confident, actionable decisions.

Application software

Smart workflows. Confident results. MAESTRO is more than a CMM — it’s a fully digital, software-connected measurement system. At the heart of this experience is a suite of purpose-built software tools that simplify programming, monitor performance, and deliver actionable insights in real time. Together, these tools help reduce cycle times, boost operator confidence, and turn quality data into competitive advantage — all seamlessly connected through Hexagon’s Nexus platform.


No-code programming for every operator

Metrology Mentor makes professional-grade measurement accessible to everyone – no programming experience required. By leveraging PMI (Product Manufacturing Information) data from CAD models, it automatically generates efficient, standards-compliant inspection routines.

Operators are guided step by step through the process, using clear visuals and intelligent recommendations that simplify complex GD&T setups. The software also integrates seamlessly with MAESTRO’s digital twin to avoid collisions and ensure accurate execution from the first run.
  • Guided workflows for intuitive programming
  • Automatically selects the best measurement strategy
  • ISO and ASME GD&T compliant
  • Fully integrated with Nexus for cross-platform collaboration

Stay ahead of downtime with real-time visibility

This tool gives you full oversight of your MAESTRO system’s health and productivity. It tracks runtime, usage trends, and potential issues to support preventative maintenance and optimise your OEE (Operational Equipment Effectiveness).

By identifying bottlenecks or underused assets, Metrology Asset Manager helps manufacturing teams unlock hidden capacity and reduce unplanned interruptions.
  • Monitor system health, usage, and availability
  • Automate alerts for maintenance events
  • Improve overall equipment efficiency
  • Remote monitoring and multi-system dashboards

Embedded software and automation features

Smart functions built into the system — for performance, control, and flexibility Beyond its applications, MAESTRO includes powerful embedded features designed to optimise measurement speed, system uptime, and automation readiness. These digital capabilities are fully integrated into the machine — enabling predictive maintenance, safe testing, efficient calibration, and direct communication with ERP, MES, and PLC systems. It’s all part of making MAESTRO not just a tool, but a connected platform for the future of manufacturing.


Environment Builder (digital twin)

Your virtual MAESTRO for safer planning

Integrated with PC-DMIS and Metrology Mentor, the Environment Builder provides a digital twin of your MAESTRO. It lets users manage probe assemblies, racks, and calibration artifacts, and simulate workflows – reducing error and setup time.

 

Provides a digital twin of your MAESTRO setup, enabling safe, offline simulation and seamless management of probes, racks, and calibration routines.

FastCal calibration

Faster setup, consistent precision

FastCal uses an inferred calibration method to define multiple probe angles and head orientations in a single operation. This dramatically reduces calibration time while maintaining high measurement accuracy – ideal for dynamic production environments.
Reduces calibration time by determining multiple probe angles and head positions in a single automated operation.

Teach and Execute Mode

Safe testing, stable results

This dual-mode operation lets users test and validate programs in a slowed-down "Teach" environment, then switch to "Execute" mode for full-speed measurement – ensuring reliable results without compromising on throughput.

EcoMode / EcoMode+

Built-in sustainability features

EcoMode reduces energy use and component wear by powering down during idle time. EcoMode+ goes further by stopping compressed air flow to the air bearings – cutting energy and air consumption significantly without affecting performance.

Metrology Communication Interface

Effortless automation integration

This Ethernet-based interface connects MAESTRO to PLCs, MES, and ERP systems, enabling bi-directional communication and remote control. Paired with safe I/Os, it makes CMM automation easier and more scalable than ever before.

Throughput and Performance Upgrades

Adapt MAESTRO as your needs evolve

Base systems can be field-upgraded at any time.
  • Accuracy+ enhances length and scanning accuracy (ISO 10360-2 and -5 compliant)
  • Throughput+ increases speed and acceleration
Upgrades are activated via software — no hardware modifications required.
