MachineMetrics enabled CPM to increase capacity by $1.5 million with no additional machines!
With MachineMetrics, we boosted production by more than 100 hours each month in the first three months alone. There’s no more educated guessing or finger pointing. Now there’s a solid reason behind everything and every decision we make. I can’t imagine what life would be like if you took it away. It’s that ingrained in our day-to-day operations.
We implemented MachineMetrics to deepen our connection to the machine and the data. The data will always be honest. We might tell ourselves we are the best, but having actual benchmarking data that positions us amongst our peers allows us to back this notion up. Our question now is no longer where do we stand, but how do we increase our percentile while maintaining employee health — this could justify further automation.
How MachineMetrics works.
Connect With & Capture Data
MachineMetrics is an easy to implement platform for connecting to and capturing data from any piece of discrete manufacturing equipment, regardless of brand or age. MMEdge Gateway enables secure ethernet, WiFi, and cellular communication while connecting directly to machine tool PLCs and controls. Add your own sensors or connect legacy equipment with digital and analog I/O that is configured and managed remotely through a web interface.
Out-of-the-Box Visualizations & Analytics
Encrypted data is streamed to the secure MachineMetrics cloud where the data is structured and aggregated to enable out-of-the-box visualizations and analytics. Access to historical and real-time data is available through open APIs. Real-time dashboards, historical analysis, and integrations with other systems can be built with these APIs.
Real-Time Monitoring
The analytics engine will monitor machine condition and other manufacturing data and initiate an action, such as text notifications when a monitor is triggered. A rules engine is provided for deploying monitors based on machine condition data and patent pending advanced machine learning algorithms can be deployed for detecting anomalous behavior.

By unlocking hidden capacity and improving efficiency, MachineMetrics enables manufacturers to increase profitability without major capital investments in new equipment.
How does MachineMetrics improve real-time visibility?
MachineMetrics provides real-time dashboards that show the status of every connected machine. Operators receive instant feedback on performance, while managers can monitor utilization, downtime, and quality metrics across the shop floor. This visibility allows teams to identify problems as they happen, rather than after production has already been impacted. The result is a more agile, responsive manufacturing operation.
Is MachineMetrics compatible with different types of equipment?
Yes. MachineMetrics is designed to work with both modern CNC machines and older, legacy equipment. Its flexible connectivity solutions allow manufacturers to capture data regardless of machine type or brand. This makes it ideal for mixed-production environments where different generations of equipment coexist. By standardizing machine data, MachineMetrics provides a unified view of performance across the entire factory.
How does MachineMetrics support industries like aerospace and defense?
In highly regulated industries such as aerospace and defense, precision, traceability, and compliance are critical. MachineMetrics helps companies in these sectors monitor production performance, reduce downtime, and ensure consistent quality. Real-time machine data supports compliance reporting, predictive maintenance, and higher overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). This allows manufacturers to meet strict standards while also improving efficiency and profitability.
What role does MachineMetrics play in predictive maintenance?
MachineMetrics uses machine data to identify performance trends and anomalies that may indicate upcoming failures. This predictive capability allows manufacturers to schedule maintenance before breakdowns occur, reducing costly unplanned downtime. By shifting from reactive to proactive maintenance, companies can extend equipment life, reduce repair costs, and improve reliability across their production assets.
