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.

Which machines can use FourJaw?

FourJaw's machine monitoring solution is designed for use on all types of manufacturing equipment. Generally, if it has an electrical current, FourJaw can tell you how productive it is (and how much energy it uses).

How does FourJaw's machine monitoring software work?

The system connects machines using non-invasive sensors that link to our MachineLink IoT hardware.

When the MachineLink detects machine downtime, it automatically prompts the operator via the FourJaw tablet to select the reason for the downtime from a predefined list (customisable by you).

The data is then displayed on FourJaw's web-based dashboard, allowing managers to make data-driven decisions in real-time.

Which machines can use FourJaw's machine monitoring software?

FourJaw's machine monitoring software is designed for use on all types of manufacturing equipment, including.

CNC machines
Lathes & milling machines
Presses & injection moulding machines
Assembly lines
Fabrication equipment

Generally, if it has an electrical current, FourJaw can tell you how productive it is (and how much energy it uses).

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 Downtime Data?

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 software 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.
