Shops and production departments, in tandem with their system integrators&nbsp;and other business partners, will benefit from display of all CNC equipment&nbsp;on the floor, regardless of location, brand, function or usage.</p><p><br/></p><p>As a MindApp within the Mindsphere portfolio, Manage MyMachines is integrated in the cloud-based, open IoT operating system, as it allows access to all critical machine tool information, from bearing temperature to production by shift or job, all in a selectable priority scale, based upon user needs.&nbsp; Unexpected line downtimes and off-normal machine kinematic conditions can be identified and rectified.</p><p><br/></p><p>Predictive maintenance can be programmed, so an upcoming failure can be anticipated, with alerts sent to a local distributor, for example,&nbsp;to deliver the needed components.</p><p><br/></p><p>Complete asset management is further possible via Manage MyMachines, as resource consumption and energy usage are trackable, all in the cloud and all accessible through<br/>the app in real time.</p><p><br/></p>
