infra CONVERT takes over a large part of your work in drawing-based test plans. The software supports you in creating automated, and therefore quick and reliable, test plans from →technical drawings, e.g. for initial sampling or statistical process control.
Load as many drawing sheets as you like into one infra CONVERT project. Different file formats are possible.
Have the test characteristics from all drawing entries automatically recognised (→Drawing data format) and evaluated. Using the provided tables for general tolerances, you can create complete and error-free test plans with just a few mouse clicks.
Keep an overview by dynamically linking the characteristics in the inspection plan with the marked entries in the drawing.
Afterwards, export the test plans to your test report application. Many common CAQ/MES software systems (Our partners) provide an integrated interface to infra CONVERT so that you can edit the drawing and automatically transfer the inspection plan from your CAQ system. Alternatively, you can simply use the integrated Export to Microsoft Excel.
With the drawing comparison, you can easily adapt test plans and stamped drawings to new drawing version statuses - without having to create them from scratch.
An intuitively understandable user interface tailored to the tasks reduce the training effort to a minimum.
Numerous setting options allow you to adapt infra CONVERT to your company and customer-specific needs, for example the shape of the stamps or drawing entries that deviate from standards.

—
1 – Function is only included in the Pro version.
2 – In the Pro version, multi-page DXF/DWG files or sheets from the model and paper space can be loaded. In the basic version, only one sheet can be loaded from the model space.
3 – Only PDF files with encoded text or embedded characters can be stamped automatically with the Pro version.
4 – IGES files (*.iges, *.igs, *.ig2) can only be loaded with the additional module »IGES«.
The advantages over the previous software
Why is it worth switching from the previous product 
infra - CONVERT to the new 
infra CONVERT?
Number of sheets
Any number of drawing sheets can be loaded into a project.
Test plan versioning
Test plans can be versioned conveniently, across sheets and are traceable in the project.
Characteristic recognition
Automatic characteristic recognition and description is now even more accurate and reliable.
Stamp PDF
Coded text in PDF drawings can be stamped automatically.
DWG/DXF format
Current DWG and DXF drawing file versions (up to AutoCAD 2021) are supported.
Display
Drawing contents are hardware accelerated and displayed in better quality.
Intuitive handling
An intuitive user interface and modern software technologies accelerate the work.
Excel export
For the export to Microsoft Excel, no add-in is needed anymore. Test report templates are even easier to design yourself. More
Continued development
New functions are constantly being added, such as filtering by characteristic properties or hiding already stamped characteristics.
Licensing
The licensing is realized without a hardware dongle. More
Note Some functions are only available in the Pro version, see above.
