Process Control Platform for Machine Shops

A process control platform coordinates the people, machines, systems, and engineering requirements involved in production. Harmoni connects CNC equipment, ERP workflows, operator activity, RFID job identification, quality information, and digital instructions. This gives manufacturing teams a shared operational view and helps automate manual steps, prevent errors, improve accountability, and respond to production issues as they occur.

Harmoni collects machine status, cycle-time, utilization, downtime, operator, labor, quality, and ERP information into a connected operational view. Role-based dashboards can present the metrics relevant to plant managers, supervisors, engineers, schedulers, and executives. Teams can identify production problems while they are happening instead of relying solely on delayed manual reports or disconnected systems.

Yes. Harmoni’s machine compatibility services support CNC controls and equipment including Mazak, Haas, Fanuc, Heidenhain, Siemens, DMG MORI, Makino, and Fadal. It is MTConnect-native where supported and uses adapter layers for older controls. The platform is designed to connect with existing equipment without requiring machine replacement, with integration support and on-site startup assistance available.

Harmoni provides native integrations with Epicor, Infor and Infor Visual, ECI JobBoss and JobBoss2, ABAS, and ODOO. Custom integrations for legacy and on-premise ERP systems are available on request. The platform can transfer labor records, machine production time, scrap, and quality data into ERP workflows to support job costing, capacity planning, and financial reporting.

Harmoni uses RFID-detected job and part-revision information to deliver the correct CNC program, settings, offsets, and tool data to the machine. It integrates with engineering revision control and DNC distribution workflows. This helps reduce wrong-program and wrong-revision scrap, limits manual searching, and gives operators clearer direction during setup and production.

Harmoni’s digital checksheets replace paper in-process inspection forms with electronic checks completed at the machine interface. Operators can record measurements digitally, while teams can review quality trends and maintain an auditable quality record for each job. The capability supports documentation needs associated with quality programs such as ISO 9001, AS9100, IATF 16949, and ISO 13485.

Yes. Harmoni provides machine-side voice, video, and messaging communication between operators and engineering, maintenance, quality, scheduling, and management. Operators can request support tickets, escalate breakdowns, and surface bottlenecks without leaving the workcenter. This reduces reliance on walking, paging, and disconnected messages that can obscure production issues or delay response.

Harmoni is designed to connect with existing machines, ERP systems, and shop floor workflows. Deployment may include equipment connectivity, system integration, dashboard configuration, RFID identification, digital instructions, quality workflows, and operator interfaces. The platform is designed to deploy in weeks, while the appropriate configuration depends on the shop’s equipment, systems, processes, and operational priorities.
