Datanomix

If your spindles are turning just to turn, you're losing money.

Most shops measure spindle uptime and call it a day. Michael Langston President & COO of OMW Corporation used to do the same thing. Then Datanomix “literally expanded their understanding of their operation.”

Time to first active. Long stops. Utilization by work cell. Maintenance windows. Suddenly, the question wasn't "are the spindles turning?" It was, "Are the right machines running the right work at the right time?"

That shift in metrics drove a shift in culture. And that shift in culture drove a 12% improvement in utilization across 43 machines in under a year.

One number never told the whole story. Now OMW has all of them.

Every shop owner asks, “Is this worth it?” before buying software.

Mike Payne asks himself: “Does this get me back at least 1 hour per machine?”

When the answer is yes, it pays for itself!

Good manufacturing decisions aren't gut feelings. They're backed by data.

Bob McGregor at Neo Industries uses Datanomix to know exactly where his cycle time is going, down to which tool is consuming it. That changes how you spend money.

As Bob put it, "If I have to buy a $600 tool or insert but I'm going to get three minutes a piece back... it pays off pretty quickly."

You have the machine data, ERP data, Inspection results, Spreadsheets, and Whiteboards.

And yet the most basic questions about the business still don't have clear answers.

Data is everywhere. What you need is a partner who turns it into answers.

Greg McHale shares why Datanomix is the right partner on The Machinist Club Podcast with Tony Gunn.

The latest Datanomix Floor Report is here!

Annie Michaud, our VP of Customer Success, has been listening to our manufacturing customers across the country, and these decisions came up over and over again last quarter:

→ .
With supplier quality slipping and lead times unpredictable, shops are weighing whether to bring outsourced work back in-house and looking for a clear read on capacity before committing.

→ .
Hiring for second shift keeps stalling, and the skilled operators on the floor are stretched across programming, inspection, and everything in between.

→ schedule slips.
The schedule lives in the ERP. The reality lives on the machines. The gap between the two is where delivery dates get tight.

What's helping our customers in these areas is the same across all three: real machine data, in real time, giving shop leaders the visibility to make these calls early and with confidence.

Most shops assume they're running efficiently. Michael Langston President & COO of OMW Corporation, can prove it.

Since going live with Datanomix across their entire shop, OMW has seen 12% improvement in utilization across 43 machines in less than a year. Five locations. Four shifts. No new equipment.

That's not a small win. That's new capacity without buying a single machine.

Someone on your team is already acting as the digital thread. Chasing data between systems, reconciling numbers, connecting dots that should never have been disconnected in the first place.

That's not a strategy. That's a person burning hours on a problem that technology should be solving.

AI can fix it. But not if your data is still living in silos. The breadcrumbs have to be there first. The right programs. The right connections. The right technology partners are pulling it together. When that foundation is in place, you stop reacting and start getting told what's wrong, what to do, and how to get better.

You don't have to be fully connected to start. You just have to start.

Greg McHale and Hiren Kumbhojkar of Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence lay out exactly what that looks like in the first session of the Manufacturing Digital Workflows series.
