Every machinist and shop manager knows how frustrating it can be to answer simple production questions: How long has this machine been running? What caused the last downtime? Are we really hitting today’s targets? Traditionally, answers come from handwritten logs, sticky notes, or memory — prone to errors, delays, and guesswork. CIMCO MDC Max changes that. It’s a real-time machine data collection and monitoring system that gives you accurate, reliable production insights from every machine and operator automatically.
What CIMCO MDC Max Does for Your Shop
CIMCO MDC Max captures data directly from machines and operators, turning it into actionable insights. Instead of relying on manual logs or scattered records, it continuously tracks machine activity, including starts, stops, production counts, and downtime events. The system provides live monitoring of your shop floor, allows historic reporting to analyze trends over time, tracks performance metrics like downtime, cycle efficiency, and productivity, and supports analysis and planning to identify bottlenecks and make data-backed decisions.
Accurate Data — Without Manual Work
Manual logs are slow, error-prone, and often incomplete. MDC Max automates data collection through direct machine signals, operator interfaces on tablets or mobile devices for quick inputs, and hardware adapters that enable older machines to connect. Operators can also record downtime reasons or scrap counts instantly, right at the machine, ensuring data is accurate, complete, and up-to-date without slowing down production.
Visual Monitoring for Faster Responses
Stop waiting until the end of a shift to see what happened. MDC Max provides live, dynamic views of your shop floor on large screens, PCs, or tablets. Custom layouts display machine names, job counts, running times, and downtime events, helping your team react faster and coordinate more effectively. Built-in reporting tools turn collected data into meaningful insights, such as overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), cycle times, and downtime analysis. Reports can be exported or integrated with ERP and MES systems, aligning production data directly with planning and scheduling.
Access Your Data Anywhere
With centralized data storage and network connectivity, MDC Max lets you check machine status from smartphones, tablets, or office PCs. Multiple sites can be monitored from a single interface, keeping supervisors and managers informed at all times and enabling faster, more informed decisions.
Why It Matters
Accurate, real-time data isn’t just helpful — it’s essential for quick, confident decisions. With CIMCO MDC Max, your shop eliminates guesswork, reduces manual work, monitors performance live, and generates actionable reports. By providing reliable data at the right time, MDC Max helps your team make smarter decisions and improve overall productivity.
