Dimensional inspection reports, straight from the drawing

A dimensional inspection report proves a part matches its drawing: every dimension identified, its tolerance, the measured value, the verdict. In most shops that document is still built by hand — reading the print, retyping dimensions into a spreadsheet, renumbering when the revision changes.

Asterion Report flips that work: import the drawing PDF, the software finds the dimensions and builds the report. What remains is measuring and signing.

What a complete dimensional report contains

The report ties three things together: the drawing (each dimension ballooned), the requirements (nominal, tolerance, applicable standard) and the evidence (measured value, instrument, operator, date). When a customer or auditor asks who measured characteristic 47 and with what, the answer has to be in the document.

  • Dimensions ballooned and visually linked to the drawing
  • Tolerances read from the print or applied per ISO 2768, ASME or DIN
  • Measured value, pass/fail, per-dimension operator sign-off
  • Traceability from work order to final PDF report

AI-powered extraction, measured on real drawings

The software reads the drawing zone by zone: select a view, it extracts dimensions, tolerances and GD&T symbols. Across 400+ real production reports, 93% of dimensions are detected and 87% come out perfect with no touch-up. A complex 80-dimension report drops from 45 minutes of preparation to about 7.

Handwriting is covered too: shops keep printing the report, filling it in pencil at the bench, then scanning — handwritten values are transcribed automatically.
