Customer Testimonials

Sean ThomasHead of Operations

"FourJaw has delivered a significant and sustained improvement in the productivity levels we're getting from our manufacturing centres."

Monitoring downtime, eliminating the various causes of waste in our processes, and deploying colleagues to where they are needed most has helped achieve a 30 per cent overall increase in uptime.

Charlie StothardProcess Improvement

“FourJaw is helping us move towards 4.0 based on our S&OP.”

It allows us every month to analyse with the directors to see our strengths and weaknesses and plan forward based on what we find. From a continuous improvement point of view, we now have concrete evidence of where to focus our energy, helping with costings, budgeting and machine utilisation.

Andy ToulsonOperations Manager

“We’ve removed all back orders and are now in a position to deliver orders on time for customers worldwide.”

This is a tangible benefit of our unprecedented increase in machine productivity, and we’ve also improved staff retention with a calmer, less stressful working environment where operators have the autonomy to get on with the job.

Real-Time Feedback for Operators

Operators and managers stay in sync with instant, actionable data displayed directly on the shop floor, fostering better communication and decision-making.

Can FourJaw monitor machines from different CNC brands?

Yes, FourJaw is brand-agnostic. Whether you have HAAS, Mazak, or manual machines, our solution works seamlessly across all types and ages of CNC equipment.

How does FourJaw improve CNC machine productivity? FourJaw tracks machine utilisation, downtime, and cycle times in real-time, helping you identify inefficiencies and optimise workflows to boost productivity.

How Accurate is FourJaw's utilisation data?

Where conventional systems might read any spindle movement as "productivity", FourJaw accurately detects genuine, money-making productivity. For example, FourJaw can detect when a CNC machine is cutting metal, by observing the rise in current usage during actual work.

This not only provides a more accurate measure of machine efficiency but also ensures consistency in data across all machines, facilitating better decision-making across your factory.

How does FourJaw Capture CNC downtime?

FourJaw captures downtime data through a combination of its MachineLink hardware and tablets mounted on the machines.

When a MachineLink detects downtime, it automatically prompts the operator via the tablet to select the reason for this downtime from a predefined list.

This process is quick and non-disruptive, designed to minimise interruption to the operator's workflow.

By simplifying the input method to just a few taps, FourJaw ensures that accurate downtime reasons are recorded with minimal effort, enabling a comprehensive analysis of machine productivity and downtime causes without impeding your operators.

Is FourJaw a cost-effective alternative to traditional systems?

Yes. Unlike traditional machine monitoring solutions, we designed our machine monitoring platform to be accessible, not only did we make it easy to install (minimising disruption to your factory floor) but we also made it affordable.

We offer monthly payment plans and you can install it yourself, so there are no high upfront installation costs often associated with traditional machine monitoring solutions
