Why GaugeMaster Pro

Purpose-built for radial gauges.

Generic vector tools treat gauge faces as a collection of shapes. GaugeMaster Pro treats them as what they are: a system of layers, arcs, ticks and scales with well-defined patterns.

Minutes, not hours

Radius and angle snapping, a live interactive canvas and dedicated gauge tools replace dozens of manual vector operations.

Parametric layer system

Three arc layers (color, tickmarks, text) and three detail layers (text, image, shape) compose into any gauge face you can imagine, with unlimited layers and non-destructive editing.

Engineering-grade output

Export as fully vectorized SVG or PDF for print, or rasterized PNG or JPG for proof or embedding.

The product

A gauge editor that thinks in degrees and radii, not bezier handles.

  • Designed for radial geometry

    Every tool, from tick marks to text arcs and segmented scales, is purpose-built for round dials.

  • Engineered for accuracy

    Constrained geometry with radius and angle snapping, for scales that line up to the degree. Every time.

  • Manufacturing-grade output

    Export PDF or SVG with strokes preserved as vectors, PNG and JPG for design review. Ready for screen print, etch or laser.

  • Iterate without rebuilding

    Change scale, range or angle in one place and the whole gauge reflows. What took hours in a drawing app takes minutes here.

  • Built on 15 years of refinement

    Successor to GaugeMaster for iPad and Mac, used by gauge designers for over 15 years.

GaugeMaster Pro gauge design
Core capabilities

Six layer types.
Every tool a gauge face designer needs.

The features below are a distilled subset. See the full documentation for detailed information.

Layers

  • Arc layers

    Color, tickmarks and text arcs: the primitives of every scale.

  • Detail layers

    Text, image and shape layers for logos, legends and marks.

Scales

  • Linear and nonlinear scales

    Parametric linear scales. Nonlinear scales from CSV tick values.

  • CSV scale import

    Drive tickmarks sets straight from spreadsheet data.

  • Tickmarks segment editor

    Per-segment length, width, count and shape.

  • Text arc styles

    Straight, tangent or curved baselines that follow your artwork.

Workflow

  • Radius and angle snapping

    Every element locks to exact scale positions.

  • Gauge wizards

    Pressure and temperature wizards. Refrigerant wizard coming soon.

  • Keyboard shortcuts

    Shortcuts for the most used actions.

TRY FOR FREE!

The free trial includes most tools and sample gauges, no account required.

Who uses it

One tool.
Every dial gauge category.

Industrial instrumentation

Pressure, temperature, flow and refrigerant gauges.

  • Linear and nonlinear scales
  • CSV-driven scale import
  • Vectorized PDF for plate manufacture

SCADA and IoT dashboards

Embed vector gauges in real-time dashboards. Clean SVG output scales to any resolution without rasterizing.

Automotive and restoration

Custom instrument clusters, replacement faces and bespoke speedometers. Bring vintage gauges back to spec with period-correct typefaces and tick segments.

  • Tangent and straight text arcs
  • Print-ready overlays at any size

Simulation

Round simulator gauges for aviation, rail and industrial training rigs. Pixel-clean at any display resolution.

  • Vector output to any size
  • Component layer organization

Watch and clock faces

Precise dial layouts for clocks and watches, with Roman or Arabic numerals. Clean vector artwork to print or hand to your dial maker.

How it works

From blank canvas to exported gauge face in three steps.

  1. 1

    Compose layers

    Add arc layers for scales and zones, detail layers for logos and legends. The layer list is your single source of truth.

    Or start from a wizard
  2. 2

    Snap and refine

    Radius and angle snapping keep geometry exact while you tune ticks, text arcs and color zones with dedicated editors.

    Live interactive canvas
  3. 3

    Export and ship

    Precise SVG or PDF for print and manufacturing, PNG or JPG for screens and dashboards. Ready for production or client handoff.
