Platform
One software environment across every machine.
Complex machines are hard to use because control, measurement and automation usually live in separate tools. We are building them as one system, shared by everything we make.
Status: in development. Not yet available.
01Architecture
Machines, sensing and software, registered to one another.
Each layer is designed with the others in mind. Software understands the machine because the machine was designed to be measured, and sensing is useful because the software knows what to do with it.
02Foundations
Four parts of one system.
- 01
Control
Machine control designed together with the hardware it runs, rather than adapted to it afterwards.
- 02
Sensing
Measurement and imaging that give software an accurate picture of the machine, the work and the environment.
- 03
Automation
Routine steps such as setup, calibration and tool management handled by the system where it can do them reliably.
- 04
AI-native workflows
Interfaces designed around assistance and automation from the outset, so complex machines become approachable.
03First applications
Built alongside the hardware.
The platform is being developed together with the compact VMC, and the sensing and image-processing work from the Mach 1 product feeds into it.
