Quality Inspection Software for PCBs

GroundControl helps PCB fabrication teams complete inspection documents faster with less manual data entry. GroundControl helps large PCB fabricators generate First Article Inspection Reports (AS9102) and other common reports. GroundControl supports submitting to EMS partners directly, exporting PDF packages ready for shipping, or submission through systems like Net-Inspect.

Export to Net-Inspect

Push directly to Net-Inspect and eliminate manual re-entry.

Unlimited licenses

Give every operator access without seat limits.

BOM, PDF, and Excel ingestion

Bring in common fab inputs without manual copy/paste.

Auto Bubble Notes

PCB drawings are unique. Parse dense drawing notes quickly when dimensions are not the whole story. Our technology is tuned for extraction of notes, drill charts and other charts.

Form 2 OCR + auto-populate

Many common materials are used across many jobs. Our application extracts material and process details, then intelligently suggests prefills from prior jobs.

CMM integration

Save hours by auto-populating results from your CMM in seconds.
