Leverage the power of XMC® to put your data to work.
Raw data enters the XMC® platform through the machine tool, plus any barcode readers, sensors, or other sources you may utilize. Usually, no additional hardware is required.
Event-based data flows to multiple upstream systems (including XMCweb®) through the XMC®datarouter, creating common event data from machine-specific data sources.
XMCweb® analyzes and visualizes your data and presents it in useful, easily digestible formats that include machine/spindle utilization, overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), part cycle times, takt times, and machine alarm history
