Advanced monitoring for CNC shops.

Atsora is the machine monitoring platform we use to help manufacturers uncover hidden capacity and run more predictable operations.

It connects directly to CNC machine controls -across all brands, ages, and control types - to capture accurate, real-time production data without clamp-on sensors or manual entry.

Our Protocols

Supported controls and protocols: Makino, DMG Mori, Mazak, Okuma, Haas, Röders, Brother, Matsuura, Hecho, Heche, Hermle, Starrag, Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi Electric, Fidia, Heidenhain, D.Electron, Selca, Perle, MTConnect, OPC UA, EtherNet/IP and MQTT

What Atsora Replaces

Many manufacturers have some form of monitoring, but it falls short:

  • Clamp-on sensors that guess machine states instead of knowing them
  • Manual data input that's error-prone and operator-dependent
  • Single-brand systems that don't scale across mixed-machine shops
  • Dashboards that show activity but don't include performance or explain why problems occur

Atsora closes these gaps with direct control-level data.

Why Clamp-On Monitoring Falls Short in Production Environments

They struggle with:

  • Differentiating setup, production, and maintenance states
  • Capturing feed rate and speed override changes
  • Detecting tool-related issues before they cause problems
  • Supporting unattended machining environments effectively

Atsora reads directly from CNC controls to capture the signals that explain performance:

  • Feed rates and feed overrides
  • Spindle load in real-time
  • Tool life and usage tracking
  • Operation and part identification
  • Cycle start, stop, and completion events
  • Machine alarms and fault conditions

Accurate Utilization Metrics You Can Trust

OEE

(Overall Equipment Effectiveness)

Availability × Performance × Quality based on planned production

Key Features That Drive Results

Automatic Downtime Detection

We read the data every 2 seconds to update live displays, or send real-time alerts when equipment stops unexpectedly.

Part Count & Cycle Tracking

Expected vs. actual comparison for every job.

Machine State Templates

We distinguish between Lunch/Break, Setup, Maintenance, And production periods Even holidays, so your planned periods of production are an accurate representation of what is actual.

Energy Consumption Monitoring

Track power usage for sustainability reporting and cost reduction.

Live Shop-Floor Displays

Real-time visibility for operators, supervisors, and management.

Integration Ready

We share data with ERP and MES systems so manual input is no longer necessary.

Platform + Consulting = Real Results

Atsora delivers accurate data. IIOT Consulting turns that data into improvement.

We stay involved to...

  • Configure machine states to match your actual planned production periods
  • Analyze trends and identify high-impact opportunities
  • Work with your operators and supervisors
  • Turn reports into clear, actionable decisions

Software alone doesn't deliver ROI. That's why we're different.

Start With a Simple Conversation

No sales pressure. Just a practical 15 - 20 minute discussion about what your machines are telling you.
