MachineMetrics Unveils Revolutionary AI-Driven Tool Monitoring to Predict and Prevent Failures

MachineMetrics, the global leader in production intelligence for discrete manufacturers, is excited to announce the launch of its groundbreaking predictive tool monitoring solution. With MachineMetrics’ latest release, manufacturers can leverage AI to quickly diagnose, predict, and avoid failures on machine tools.

Manually identifying when tooling will fail is nearly impossible, which prompts manufacturers to either replace tooling and components too early or simply run machines to failure. These strategies result in wasted tool life, scrap, catastrophic breakdowns, and unplanned downtime.

MachineMetrics Tool Anomaly Detection revolutionizes this process by detecting anomalous machining activity - like shifts in load, torque, and spindle speed - to predict impending failures, maximize tool life, and eliminate quality issues and downtime.

  • MachineMetrics captures high-frequency data from the machine control without the need for invasive sensors
  • Proprietary artificial intelligence algorithms detect anomaly events on the machine
  • Workflows immediately notify the right person or automatically stop the machine when triggered

“Today's solutions fall short - they're expensive, unreliable, and fail to scale effectively," said Bill Bither, CEO and Co-Founder of MachineMetrics. "That's why we developed a groundbreaking, sensorless solution to predict machine tool failures. Our customers are now saving thousands of dollars per machine every month by preventing failures before they happen and eliminating costly scrap.”

With MachineMetrics, manufacturers now have an unprecedented ability to:

  • Diagnose Machine Problems: Leverage high-frequency data to uncover machine issues with unmatched precision, enabling diagnoses that were previously impossible.
  • Optimize Tool Life: Detect and respond to tool wear in real-time, maximizing tool utilization and reducing unnecessary downtime.
  • Prevent Quality Issues: Predict when tools will produce out-of-spec parts, stopping defects before they happen and minimizing waste.
  • Avoid Catastrophic Failures: Identify early signs of stress in tools and act immediately to prevent costly damage and unplanned downtime.

MachineMetrics Tool Anomaly Detection is a scalable, software-based solution that eliminates the need for invasive sensors, saving users tens of thousands of dollars. Powered by centuries-worth of anonymized machine data, our refined algorithms detect a wide range of production issues - helping manufacturers to maximize tool life, eliminate scrap, and stop costly downtime.
