A suite of connected apps. Buy a product. Get everything in it.
Last updated: April 23, 2026
The biggest ROI isn't in any single module. It's in the connections.
A monitoring system that detects a breakdown on the floor and auto-creates a maintenance work order. Pre-filled with the machine, timestamp, and the operator's description. That eliminates the "walk to a computer and file a ticket" gap that causes most breakdowns to go unreported.
When the maintenance system knows a PM is due, that PM appears on the production schedule as an immovable block. When a breakdown happens mid-job, the schedule adjusts automatically. The planner sees the impact immediately.
Each module works on its own, because nobody wants to buy everything on day one. But when connected, data flows automatically between them. A breakdown on the floor creates a work order, adjusts the schedule, and eventually shows up as a cost variance on the delayed job. No manual re-entry. No spreadsheet gymnastics.

Every machine. Every state. Right now.
Real-time machine monitoring connects to your PLC layer and reports live state for every machine on the floor. Running, idle, faulted, in changeover, in maintenance.
- You see the real-time status of every machine on your floor (running, idle, faulted, on break, in changeover, or in maintenance) updated the instant conditions change.
- You monitor any type of manufacturing equipment from a single platform, each with its own tailored metrics, dashboards, and PLC signal conditions. No code changes to add a new machine type.
- You track what matters for each machine type (cuts, linear feet, weight, parts, skids) and define your own performance metrics using formula expressions, all computed in real time from live machine data.
- You access historical dashboards going back to day one. Every shift, every machine, every metric — stored and queryable from the moment data collection begins.
The machine stopped. Now you know why. Before the shift summary lands.
Downtime tracking and classification captures every unplanned stoppage and prompts the operator to classify it by category and reason in two taps. No downtime goes unrecorded.
- You get prompted to classify every unplanned stoppage after a configurable idle threshold, ensuring no downtime goes unrecorded.
- Your operators classify downtime in two taps (category, then reason) after the machine is back up and running, so classification never holds up production.
- Your operators can escalate a downtime event to breakdown maintenance mode directly from the classification popup, triggering maintenance workflows immediately.
- You manage a single library of reason codes organized by category, with per-machine-type defaults and per-machine overrides.
Your KPIs. Your formulas. Computed from the floor, not assembled from reports.
OEE analytics and KPI reporting computes OEE, availability, performance, and quality from live machine data using formula expressions you define per machine type. Drill down from any aggregate to the specific reasons driving it.
- OEE and any KPI you define — linear feet per hour, tons per day, whatever matters to your operation — computed automatically from live machine data. Every second of the day is categorized: run, downtime, break, shutdown, changeover, maintenance.
- You drill from any aggregate into specific reasons with a single click. Schedule adherence, capacity utilization, predicted vs. actual durations — all with trend charts and scorecards.
- KPI values retained at every shift and day boundary, enabling long-term trend analysis on any metric. Filter by plant, machine, shift, date range, or time granularity.
- Export daily summaries, shift records, and order history as CSV — all KPI values and production units included automatically.
Context captured at the source. By the person standing next to the machine.
The operator kiosk is a shop-floor touch device stationed at every work center. Operators log shift data, downtime reasons, order changes, and breaks at the source. Captures context that otherwise gets reconstructed from memory.
- A tablet at each work center with large, color-coded touch targets. Live progress bars show actual vs. target production with estimated completion.
- Operators see the day's planned order sequence, start and end shifts, declare breaks or maintenance with a single tap, and classify downtime — all without leaving the kiosk.
- Auto-detected changeover — starts and ends automatically based on order completion and machine activity.
- Current machine state shown in a large color band visible from across the work cell. Every operator action is time-stamped and logged for accountability.
The floor TV that actually tells you something.
The floor display dashboard is a TV-mounted read-only view of live machine state, OEE, and order progress across a work cell. Readable from 10+ feet. Auto-cycles when there are more machines than fit on a screen.
- Real-time machine state, production metrics, order progress, downtime events, and estimated completion times — readable from 10+ feet. Auto-cycles when there are more machines than fit on one screen.
- Each machine shows its own KPIs, so a plasma cutter and a CNC lathe side-by-side display the metrics that matter for each.
- Everyone on the floor — operators, supervisors, maintenance — sees the same picture at the same time. No waiting for a report, no walking to a screen in the office.
You define the KPIs. You build the dashboards. You control how your operation is measured.
Administration and self-service configuration lets you define machine types, KPI formulas, dashboard layouts, and order specifications through a visual editor. No code required. We'll help you set it up.
- Define machine types — production units, KPI formulas, field mappings, order specs — without writing code.
- Set performance targets with green/amber/red thresholds at the machine type level, with per-machine overrides.
- Build dashboards by dragging widgets onto a grid with live preview — bar charts, line charts, pie charts, stacked bars, and sortable data tables.
- Changes apply to running machines instantly without interrupting production tracking.
One login. Every plant. Nothing gets in that shouldn't.
Access and security: data flows out from your machines — nothing flows in. Your team logs in once and moves between plants without re-authenticating. You control who sees what. Everything is encrypted.
- Outbound-only data flow. No inbound connections to your PLCs or OT network.
- One login across every plant. Role-based access controls who sees what — admins, planners, viewers — across every facility.
- Kiosk tablets and floor displays deploy with auto-generated device keys — no user logins required at the cell.
- Every administrative change tracked in a dedicated audit log.
Your process. Your steps. Your durations. What it actually cost.
The production scheduler lets you sequence jobs across machines with drag-and-drop. Any sequence, any duration, any process. You define the steps.
- You define reusable process routes with as many operations as your process requires, in any sequence, at any duration. Built for fabrication and custom shops where every job routes differently.
- You drag and drop orders onto machines in a Gantt, day, or week view. The system instantly recalculates changeovers, capacity, and constraints.
- You get a feasibility check at order creation — green, yellow, or red — telling you whether a due date is achievable before you commit to the customer.
- You use backward scheduling to answer "when must I start to hit the due date." Rush orders show exactly which downstream jobs get displaced.
- You run the auto-scheduler to get a proposed optimized sequence.
The system knows your machines. It won't let you schedule something they can't run.
Machine constraints and changeover captures what each machine can and cannot run, and calculates changeover time between jobs automatically. Prevents scheduling orders onto incompatible equipment.
- Define each machine's physical capabilities (max width, max weight, material types). The system prevents invalid assignments with a clear explanation of why.
- Sequence-dependent changeover rules calculate automatically every time the schedule changes. Campaign scheduling groups similar orders to minimize total changeover time.
- Override any computed changeover when you know better than the formula.
Estimates that get better every time a job completes.
Duration prediction and schedule attainment learns from completed orders to improve estimate accuracy over time. Scorecards track predicted vs. actual completion, making estimation accuracy a measurable KPI.
- Rate-based duration estimates adjust automatically for material type, gauge, coatings, and other spec-driven factors — replacing manual guesswork.
- A self-improving prediction engine trains on every completed order, so estimates get more accurate over time without manual tuning.
- Schedule adherence measured in time-weighted views — a missed 8-hour job is not treated the same as a missed 30-minute job.
Your shifts. Your operators. Your material. All on the schedule.
Material and capacity overlays on the schedule flag overloads, material risk, and shift coverage gaps before they reach the floor.
- Define named shifts and assign them to machines by day of week, so capacity reflects how your plant actually operates.
- Material availability dates per order — the system warns you if you try to schedule work before the raw material arrives.
- Real-time capacity utilization per machine per shift, with overload warnings when booked hours exceed available hours.
- Capacity overrides for holidays, shutdowns, Saturday overtime.
Start with one. Add the other when you're ready.
MACH Monitor and MACH Schedule each work independently. Start with whichever solves your most pressing problem — scheduling or floor visibility — and connect them when you're ready for the closed loop.
- Run the Scheduler as a standalone product. No dependency on MACH Monitor or any other system required.
- Connect to MACH Monitor when ready and get bidirectional sync of machines, orders, live state, and production actuals.
- Connect to your ERP system for bidirectional order and machine sync, eliminating double-entry.
True cost-to-serve. The number that changes every decision.
- Maintenance (CMMS) Q3 2026
- Cost-to-serve analytics In design
Your quoting model uses standard costs. Standard costs don't see the actual changeover time between jobs, the scheduling disruption from a late material delivery, or the overtime your floor absorbed when a run took twice as long as the estimate. MACH captures all of it. When cost-to-serve analytics ship, every product, every customer, and every order will have a real production cost attached to it. Some manufacturers who run this analysis find their fastest-growing product is their least profitable. That changes the conversation.

The production data captured by Monitoring and Scheduling today is the foundation for cost-to-serve. When this capability ships, the data is already there.
Questions about MACH features.
What monitoring features does MACH include?
MACH Monitor includes real-time machine state tracking (running, idle, faulted, in changeover), two-tap downtime classification from the operator kiosk, OEE analytics with reason-code drill-down, custom KPI formulas per machine type, floor display dashboards, and multi-plant access with SSO. Every module is included when you buy the product.
How does MACH scheduling work?
MACH Schedule lets you sequence jobs across machines with drag-and-drop in a Gantt, day, or week view. You define reusable process routes with any number of operations in any sequence. Machine constraints and changeover rules are enforced automatically. When paired with MACH Monitor, the schedule updates live from floor production state.
Does MACH require a MES to use the monitoring or scheduling features?
No. MACH Monitor and MACH Schedule each work independently without a MES. MACH connects directly to the PLC layer for machine data and uses an operator kiosk for context capture. If a MES exists, MACH integrates with it. If not, MACH becomes the system of record from day one.
What is the pricing for MACH?
MACH is priced flat per work center per month on annual billing. MACH Schedule is $150/wc/mo, MACH Monitor is $270/wc/mo, MACH Complete is $357/wc/mo (15% bundle discount). Every product includes unlimited users, unlimited orders, and all features. No locked features. Above 100 work centers, contact sales. See the pricing page for full details.
All of this. $357 per work center per month.
Unlimited users. Unlimited orders. The conventional path costs $1M–$3M (industry-reported MES TCO range). The only variable is how many machines are connected.
