A few minutes waiting for a tool. A few more for an inspection. Longer for the crane. No single stop looks serious, yet added up across a month they decide whether your shop makes money.

01 / Anatomy of a lost shift

What CNC downtime tracking captures in one shift

  1. The stop is caught

    The moment a machine stops, the time is logged. Nobody has to remember to write it down.

  2. The wait is measured

    Short waits for material, inspection or an operator are timed, not rounded off.

  3. The reason is recorded

    Each stop carries its reason, so breakdowns, setups and waits are counted separately.

  4. The biggest loss rises to the top

    Downtime reasons are ranked, so your first fix is the one worth the most.

07 / Questions

CNC machine downtime tracking FAQ

What is CNC machine downtime tracking?

It records every time a CNC machine stops, how long it stays stopped and the reason, and shows it on a timeline and in loss charts.

Does it catch short stops?

Yes. Status comes from the machine, so short waits are recorded as they happen instead of being rounded off in a logbook.

Can it warn us before a breakdown?

Maintenance alerts remind you before a breakdown, and tool monitoring shows tool condition and remaining life.

Will I know when a machine is underperforming?

Yes. Instant alerts tell you when a machine's performance drops.

Does it work on older machines?

Yes. Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi and Haas controllers are supported, and older machines can be connected with external sensors.

How soon can we start tracking?

Within 1 to 2 days once your industrial PC is ready. Installation is included.

How much does downtime tracking cost?

The plan is ₹5,499 per machine per year plus GST, about ₹15 a day. The minimum is 5 machines.

What happens at the end of the year?

Nothing is charged automatically. If you are satisfied, you renew for the next year. Orders cannot be cancelled or refunded once placed.
