Run Lights Out!

Our CNC machining automation technology products will optimize your manufacturing before, during, and after cutting.

Adaptive Tool Monitoring System

TMAC (Tool Monitoring Adaptive Control) utilizes high-precision sensor technology to detect tool wear and prevent breakage in real-time, and uses adaptive control to dynamically control feed rates.

CNC Sensor Analysis System

DTect-IT combines high-precision machine tool sensor technology with advanced analysis capabilities to monitor CNC processes, detect anomalies, and prevent downtime.

RFID Tool Data Management System

ToolConnect eliminates human error and reduces setup time by automating the transfer of presetter measured tool data to (and from) the CNC control using RFID technology.

Customizable Machine Status Light

The CEI Smart Light System is a customizable status light that offers over 1000 LED light configurations that can be custom-programmed for any machine status or condition indication.

Automated Tool Wear Compensation

AutoComp automatically calculates and updates tool offsets in the CNC control based on measurement data from post-process or in-process gauge systems, to eliminate error.

CNC Automation Application Builder

MiConnect Technology is a flexible, no-code application builder designed to connect and control devices and operations, bridging the automation and data gap across a machining cell.
