Case Study: Coastal Machine and Supply achieves 46% higher five-axis utilization with Datanomix machine monitoring

Coastal Machine and Supply boosts five-axis utilization 46% with Datanomix

Coastal Machine and Supply, a precision machining shop shifting from oil and gas to defense and aerospace work, faced the challenge of gaining visibility into their shop floor to manage more complex, long-cycle five-axis programs. To stay competitive, General Manager Kody Guidry sought a solution for real-time machine monitoring from Datanomix.

By implementing Datanomix's machine monitoring pilot on their most demanding five-axis equipment, the shop gained immediate data visibility, including a live status TV display. The results were rapid, yielding a 46% increase in five-axis utilization, exposure of hidden downtime, and more accurate quoting based on real cycle times, all achieved from their existing machines.
