Are you tired of drowning in a sea of paper setup sheets, chasing down the latest NC program versions, or dealing with costly errors from unapproved files? CIMCO Manufacturing Data Management (MDM) is here to transform your production process. Designed for manufacturers who demand precision and efficiency, CIMCO MDM is a paperless data management system that centralizes, controls, and secures all your production-related files—CAD/CAM files, NC programs, setup sheets, tool lists, and more. Say goodbye to chaos and hello to a smarter, more reliable way of working.
Key Features of CIMCO MDM
- Change Tracking: Keep a clear audit trail of every file modification, ensuring accountability and traceability.
- Remote Request: Allow shop floor operators to request files directly from the CNC machine, but only approved programs are sent—keeping control in your hands.
- Data Backup & Restoration: Protect your critical production data with automated backups and easy restoration options.
- Centralized Document Access: Access all your production files from one secure location, eliminating the hassle of searching through scattered folders or outdated paper records.
- Comments & Collaboration: Leave notes and feedback directly on files, improving communication between programmers, operators, and managers.
- Group Permissions: Control who can access what, ensuring only authorized personnel can view or modify sensitive files.
- CAM Integrations: Automate the generation of tool lists and setup sheets directly from your CAM system, saving time and reducing errors.
- Reporting & Automation: Generate detailed reports and automate repetitive tasks to streamline your workflow.
- Alerting: Set up notifications to stay informed about critical changes or issues in real-time.
MDM can require comments for actions, like ‘Feed rate updated for new tool coating,’ giving you better insight than just a date stamp. It’s automatic, so programmers don’t forget to log it, ensuring no details are missed.
