Wherever components are manufactured with high precision, regularly calibrated measuring instruments are essential. But how do you stay on top of things? Lange & Haasis has switched from handouts to digital measuring equipment management with G\u00fchring Tool Management Software (GTMS) \u2013 and is saving a lot of time in this way.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_4,1_4″ module_class=”gue-page-header” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/guehring.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/GUE_blog-lange-haasis-success-story.jpg” alt=”Mitarbeiter von Lange & Haasis lassen sich von G\u00fchring bei der Qualit\u00e4tssicherung beraten” title_text=”Mitarbeiter von Lange & Haasis lassen sich von G\u00fchring bei der Qualit\u00e4tssicherung beraten” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row module_class=”gue-row-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
Measuring screws, limit gauges, thread gauges \u2013 the machinists at Lange & Haasis<\/a> always have their measuring equipment to hand to check the quality and dimensional accuracy of construction parts. Although the products produced by the company for CNC metalworking in Albstadt differ greatly, they all have one thing in common: Highest precision down to the \u00b5 range. \u201cNo order is processed without measuring instruments\u201d, notes founder and co-owner Jens Lange. And that\u2019s why there are so many of them in Lange & Haasis\u2019 production.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ module_class=”gue-row-vertical-aligned-content gue-row-2col-image-text” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/guehring.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/GUE_lange-haasis-success-story-3.jpg” alt=”Verschiedene Messmittel liegen bei Lange&Haasos bereit” title_text=”Verschiedene Messmittel liegen bei Lange&Haasos bereit” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]The problem: Measuring instruments have an expiry date and must be recalibrated before expiry. Uncalibrated measuring instruments must not be used for measurement. But how do you keep track of all the measuring equipment in everyday production? Jens Lange had to find out in his company that management using handouts is not the perfect solution: \u201cThat was a huge source of error when it came to calibration cycles\u201d, he recalls. In addition, employees were never able to trace who had taken which measuring instruments and spent a lot of time searching for them. Plus, the company is certified according to the ISO 9001 international standard, which stands for process-oriented quality management.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row module_class=”gue-row-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n \u201cIn order to maintain this certification and expand the associated processes, we need measuring equipment management\u201d, says Patrick Maier, who is responsible for measuring equipment management at Lange & Haasis. \u201cWe wanted a quick and simple solution that would give us more structure and control in our measurement equipment management.\u201d The simple solution is just a few kilometers away: Lange & Haasis has been working very closely with G\u00fchring for 20 years. So it was clear for Patrick Maier: \u201cThe regional aspect and the ability to quickly ask questions and solve problems were very important to us, which is why we did not need to look at other software solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row module_class=”gue-row-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row module_class=”gue-row-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n The G\u00fchring Tool Management Software (GTMS)<\/a> can cover all production and logistics-relevant areas in companies. GTMS offers a way to manage measuring instruments and the corresponding calibrations. Test dates are permanently monitored digitally and internal calibrations are created, carried out and documented in accordance with an audit based on a stored test plan. In addition to ISO 9001, which is so important for Lange & Haasis, IATF 16949 and QSF-A 1998 are also covered by the GTMS. Anyone who combines the software with a G\u00fchring tool cabinet can also specify that only calibrated measuring instruments are removed from drawers and all others are blocked. All of this ensures that sufficient measuring instruments are always available in production and that documentation gaps during customer audits are avoided. \u201cGTMS is perfect for all customers who do not want to lose track of their testing and operating resources\u201d, summarises Christoph Sch\u00f6nhaar, who looks after the company as a G\u00fchring software expert.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row module_class=”gue-row-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n This is exactly what Lange & Haasis wanted: \u201cFirst of all, we wanted to digitalise measuring equipment management so that we could minimise search efforts and establish traceability of the measuring equipment removal\u201d, explains Patrick Maier. It was particularly important to them that the new system be simple to use and self-explanatory and could be used quickly and error-free by all employees. After Christoph Sch\u00f6nhaar showed him the possibilities of GTMS, he quickly realised: \u201cWith G\u00fchring, we have found the perfect partner!\u201d[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ module_class=”gue-row-vertical-aligned-content gue-row-2col-image-text” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/guehring.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/GUE_lange-haasis-success-story-2.jpg” alt=”Im G\u00fchring TM-Schrank sind alle Messmittel an ihrem Platz” title_text=”Im G\u00fchring TM-Schrank sind alle Messmittel an ihrem Platz” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Sch\u00f6nhaar says that the planning and implementation of the project then went quite quickly and smoothly: \u201cThere was always honest and direct feedback, which helped us find the right solutions.\u201d This is what Patrick Maier thinks: \u201cNo matter what problem we had, a targeted solution was always found immediately!\u201d<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row module_class=”gue-row-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Where is the measuring instrument or who has it? How often was it used? When is the next calibration interval? Thanks to GTMS, Lange & Haasis employees can now answer all these questions at a glance. Because its measuring equipment is now managed centrally, Lange & Haasis employees can put together everything they need for an order much more quickly. \u201cThe time savings associated with measuring equipment management are enormous,\u201d notes Patrick Maier. But that\u2019s not all: \u201cThe long-term goal is for us to implement our complete production, tool and warehouse management with the GTMS from G\u00fchring and use the software to the fullest extent possible\u201d, says Jens Lange.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ module_class=”gue-row-vertical-aligned-content gue-row-2col-image-text” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/guehring.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/GUE_lange-haasis-success-story-1.jpg” alt=”Ein Mitarbeiter von Lange & Haasis bedient den Werkzeugschrank” title_text=”Ein Mitarbeiter von Lange & Haasis bedient den Werkzeugschrank” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Further GTMS modules are to be built up gradually in order to further digitalise manufacturing. \u201cThanks to GTMS, many functions can be covered with a single software solution\u201d, explains Sch\u00f6nhaar. \u201cThe next steps could now be towards warehouse management and machine connection.\u201d The new measuring equipment management is therefore only a first important step on the road to digital manufacturing. This is also Jens Lange\u2019s conclusion: \u201cWith GTMS, we as a medium-sized company have taken a big step towards digitalisation.\u201d<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text module_class=”gue-row-text-module” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_toggle title=”What is measuring equipment management in the context of a company? ” admin_label=”Was hei\u00dft Zerspanen?” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Measuring equipment management is a systematic approach to managing and monitoring all measuring instruments and test equipment in a company.
