Connect Legacy Machines With Modern Software

Legacy machine connectivity software connects established manufacturing equipment—especially older CNC machines—to modern software tools for monitoring, data collection, workflow control, and reporting. It translates or collects signals from compatible controls, then makes that information available for machine status, utilization, downtime, OEE, production tracking, and ERP-connected workflows. The goal is to improve visibility and execution without retiring dependable equipment.

Yes. Harmoni is designed to connect to existing equipment without requiring machine replacement. It supports MTConnect where available and uses adapter layers for older controls. Compatibility coverage includes Mazak, Haas, Fanuc, Heidenhain, Siemens, DMG MORI, Makino, and Fadal. A connectivity review can identify the practical path for each machine, control generation, and shop-floor requirement.

Harmoni supports a broad range of CNC controls and equipment, including Mazak Mazatrol, Haas NGC and legacy controls, Fanuc 0i, 30i, 31i, and 32i, Heidenhain, Siemens Sinumerik, DMG MORI, Makino, and Fadal. Because machine age, control configuration, and network conditions vary, compatibility is best confirmed for each asset before deployment.

Connected machines can provide real-time status, cycle-time data, utilization, downtime classification, and OEE-related information. Harmoni can combine those signals with operator labor activity, job information, quality data, and ERP records. This creates operational context for identifying issues such as changeovers, breakdowns, material waits, operator waits, micro-stops, and quality holds.

Yes. Harmoni offers native integrations with Epicor, Infor and Infor Visual, ECI JobBoss and JobBoss2, ABAS, and ODOO, along with custom integration options for legacy and on-premise ERP systems. It can automatically send production time, labor records, scrap, and quality data to the ERP, improving job costing, capacity reporting, and reconciliation.

Harmoni deploys in weeks, rather than requiring a long machine-replacement initiative. Actual timing depends on the number of machines, control types, network readiness, required ERP connections, and workflow scope. A focused rollout can prioritize high-value workcenters first, validate connectivity and data quality, then expand across the facility in manageable phases.

Yes. Harmoni uses automatically collected machine data to support real-time OEE tracking across availability, performance, and quality. It also helps classify downtime into actionable reasons, such as changeovers, breakdowns, material waits, operator waits, and quality holds. This lets continuous-improvement teams focus on specific losses instead of relying on broad assumptions or delayed reports.

Yes. Connectivity can strengthen traceability and process control for aerospace, defense, automotive, healthcare manufacturing, and other regulated environments. Harmoni supports digital work instructions, electronic quality checksheets, auditable records, and machine-level MFA for sensitive programs. These capabilities can support documentation practices associated with ISO 9001, AS9100, IATF 16949, ISO 13485, DFARS, and CMMC requirements.
