Violeta Pisin, Product Manager at EngView Systems, leads the Scan Fit & Measure (SFM) solution with over a decade of expertise in high-precision metrology for the extrusion sector. She has been instrumental in advancing automated inspection, data integration, and MDC-driven traceability for aluminium, PVC, and rubber profile manufacturers.
In an interview for “End-user Revolution: ALuminium's Impact on Modern Living” e-Magazine, Violeta Pisin talks about how EngView’s SFM and mCaliper solutions digitalise quality control, automate inspection, enhance dimensional accuracy, and provide complete data traceability. It explores how real-time analytics, workflow integration, and AI-driven measurement optimisation help extrusion plants boost efficiency, reduce waste, and strengthen operational consistency.
AL Circle: Could you give us an overview of EngView Systems’ solutions for the aluminium extrusion industry, and how these tools help manufacturers improve quality control, precision and overall measurement efficiency?
Violeta Pisin: At EngView Systems, we focus on developing intelligent measurement solutions that help extrusion plants automate and optimise their quality control processes.
Our Scan Fit and Measure (SFM) system is an automated solution designed for precise inspection of aluminium, PVC, and rubber profiles. It performs detailed evaluation of dimensions, wall thickness, radii, and GD&T, delivering consistent results within seconds.
The system shortens inspection time while improving precision and repeatability. Combined with our Measurement Data Center (MDC) — a web-based platform for collecting and analysing measurement data — it brings full traceability and transparency to quality control. Plants can generate reports, monitor production trends, and easily share data with customers or management.
AL Circle: Digitalisation is becoming vital for manufacturers. How do your solutions help aluminium extrusion plants digitalise their quality control process?
Violeta Pisin: First of all, everything is tracked. Every measurement an operator performs is logged in the MDC — including who performed it, which tool was used, and when that tool was last calibrated. Even months after a batch has been shipped, if there’s a dispute, the operator can go back to the original scan and recheck dimensions — even without having the physical sample at the plant.
By integrating SFM data into internal workflow systems or ERP, manufacturers can connect inspection results with their broader production and quality systems, creating a truly digital, transparent workflow.
Talking about digitalisation, we also have a product called mCaliper. It’s designed for manufacturers who still use manual tools like calipers and micrometers on the shop floor. We’ve built an app that automatically records measurements and sends them directly to the MDC — no more notebooks or loose sheets of paper. Quality managers can instantly see what was measured and what the results were. Our reporting system can even provide SPC statistics and deeper analyses.
