Optimizing 3D Measurement Inspections for Complex Automotive Molds with PolyWorks|Inspector™
Enhancing precision and efficiency in 3D measurement of complex molds for the automotive industry with PolyWorks|Inspector
Borromini S.r.l. (part of the VR Group), a dynamic SME with 60 employees, specializes in designing complex molds for the automotive lighting industry and small home appliances.
The company collaborates with prestigious brands such as Alfa Romeo, Volvo, and Toyota.
The Challenge
Borromini faced limitations with its previous 3D measurement software. A lack of flexibility, an unintuitive interface, and inefficient processes hindered the seamless management of complex mold projects, which often require frequent adjustments.
The Solution
The adoption of PolyWorks|Inspector radically transformed Borromini’s operations.
The software integrates seamlessly with their Hexagon CMM, enabling efficient management of complex molding projects through:
- An intuitive interface that simplifies 3D model adjustments
- Faster and more accurate 3D measurement processes
- High-quality reporting that makes results accessible to all, from the Metrology department to senior management
These features significantly improved productivity and strengthened Borromini’s confidence in the software’s reliability.
In the future, the company plans to incorporate data from 3D scanners, connected manual measurement tools, and PolyWorks|Modeler™ for reverse-engineering projects.

"PolyWorks® has transformed our workflow, making it faster, more intuitive, and far more efficient."
"From a small car’s performance, we’ve reached the speed of a race car."
