Datanomix, Caron Engineering partner to deliver real-time performance intelligence

Datanomix, Nashua, N.H., and Caron Engineering, Wells, Maine, have partnered to jointly develop data-driven technology that leverages the companies’ manufacturing domain expertise in real-time production monitoring and machine tool optimization.

This integration adds a new dashboard in the Datanomix platform that aggregates and displays the metrics for all Caron devices deployed in a factory. At the recent EASTEC show, the companies showed a single visualization for the job performance data from Caron Engineering’s adaptive tool monitoring system, TMAC, helping accelerate continuous improvement efforts across all jobs.

Datanomix uses advanced analytics and machine learning to empower manufacturers to understand the state of their production in real time. Caron Engineering uses advanced sensors and signal processing techniques to improve machine performance, optimizing how CNC machines produce parts and measure tool usage to track tool wear and prevent costly repairs. This partnership and its resulting technology will help manufacturers proactively optimize whole-factory performance and profitability.

“Manufacturers are demanding an integrated solution that delivers a rich visual experience around real-time job performance, predictive machine parameters, and cutting tool behaviour over time,” said John Joseph, co-founder/CEO of Datanomix.

“There is a symbiotic fit between the tooling expertise at Caron and the data science capabilities at Datanomix,” said Rob Caron, founder/president of Caron Engineering. “This partnership lets us offer our installed base of thousands of customers worldwide an analytics and intelligence solution that spans from the cutting tools and machine health all the way to the executive suite.”

Existing customers of both companies will have the opportunity to purchase these software tools through existing sales channels. The companies have worked out a reciprocal support network to route customer requests to the technical experts at each company to provide the highest level of quality in their support experience.
