What Status Pro does

Status Pro Maschinenmesstechnik GmbH is a German manufacturer and distributor of laser-based precision measurement technology for industrial machines, founded in 1995 and headquartered in Bochum, Germany. The company organizes its portfolio into four divisions: machine tool calibration (interferometers, precision spirit levels, ProLine and ProLevel systems), machine geometry (straightness, flatness, squareness, leveling, photogrammetry, and the 2024-launched µDist distance measurement product), shaft alignment (Acoem AT-100 through AT-400, Acoem EXO ATEX-certified system, Fixturlaser NXA Pro and EVO, plus accessories such as shims, thermal-growth modules, and machine-train software), and IoT sensing through its SPIoT subsidiary. The product stack is built on proprietary laser, interferometric, and photogrammetric measurement methods with patented features including the GuideU symbol-based interface, True Live dynamic measurement, and Vertizontal Moves two-axis correction.

The company serves industrial manufacturing customers — including machine builders, wind-turbine OEMs/operators (Siemens, Vestas, GE), and hazardous-environment industries requiring ATEX/IECEx-certified equipment — across 12+ countries via a combination of regional authorized distributors (USA, Canada, South Korea, China, India, Finland, Spain, France, Turkey, Italy, Czech Republic), direct e-commerce (shop.statuspro.com), and on-site engineering surveying services. Status Pro is both a manufacturer of its own ProLine/ProLevel/SPIoT lines and a distributor/integrator of Acoem AB's Fixturlaser-branded products. Revenue is generated through one-time equipment sales, professional services (engineering measurement, repair, calibration, equipment rental), and subscription-style eLearning/certification. The company operates as a privately held GmbH with no disclosed external funding rounds, and its size is reported at 11-50 employees.

Core offering

Status Pro (Status Pro Maschinenmesstechnik GmbH) designs, manufactures, and distributes laser-based precision measurement instruments and IoT sensors used for machine tool calibration, machine geometry verification, and shaft alignment in industrial manufacturing environments. The company also provides associated calibration, training, and on-site engineering services.

Product overview

Status Pro Maschinenmesstechnik GmbH is a manufacturer, distributor, and repair service for precision machine measurement technology, founded in 1995 in Bochum, Germany. The product portfolio is organized into four main divisions: (1) Machine Tool Calibration (Ausrichten von Werkzeugmaschinen) covering interferometer, precision inclination measurement, machine spirit levels, and laser measurement for machine tool alignment, calibration, and diagnosis; (2) Machine Geometry (Maschinengeometrie) for measuring straightness, flatness, squareness, and leveling using laser and photogrammetry, plus the new µDist distance measurement product; (3) Internet of Things (SPIoT) featuring autonomous IoT sensors for wireless measurement and data transmission; and (4) Shaft Alignment (Wellenausrichten) including laser alignment systems, the Acoem series (AT-100 through AT-400 and EXO), Fixturlaser systems (NXA Pro and EVO), and accessories like shims, clamping fixtures, and the Maschinendynamik OL2R thermal growth measurement system. The ProLine and ProLevel series provide foundational measurement platforms, while the company also offers engineering surveying, repair/calibration, and equipment rental services.
