Machine Monitoring Software

See exactly what your machines are doing in real time

Connect directly to your equipment, capture live status data, and route alerts the moment a line goes down. Combine machine signals with operator context to fix problems faster and keep production moving.

WHY MACHINE MONITORING MATTERS

Disconnected machines hide the true cost of downtime

  • End-of-shift reports surface problems too late

    When machine status lives on a clipboard or a whiteboard, you only find out about a stoppage hours after it happens. Every minute spent waiting for a supervisor to notice a downed spindle is a minute of lost production you cannot recover.

  • Equipment data stays trapped in silos

    Factories run on a mix of legacy equipment and modern assets that rarely speak the same language. Extracting data from isolated PLCs typically turns into a massive integration project, leaving operations with a fragmented view of the floor.

  • A fault code doesn't explain the root cause

    A sensor can tell you a machine stopped running, but it cannot tell you the operator is waiting on materials or cleaning a jam. Relying on machine data alone leaves maintenance and engineering guessing at the actual cause of the delay.

How Tulip connects equipment data to operational workflows

Tulip's composable platform captures data directly from the machines and tools on your floor, turning raw signals into real-time visibility. It bridges the gap between the equipment running the process and the operators managing it, routing alerts to the right teams instantly.

Age Isn't a Reason to Keep a Machine Siloed

Availability and performance come from machine and PLC data over native OPC UA or MQTT, and combine with the reason code or part number an operator enters to produce one OEE number, broken out by line and by shift. Nobody rebuilds it in a spreadsheet after the shift, because it traces back to the same data that produced it.

Real-Time Floor Dashboards

See Every Machine's Status on One Screen

Machine status, output, and performance show up on a live dashboard as it happens. Nobody's rebuilding that picture from a shift-end spreadsheet, because the dashboard reads from the same connected machine data feeding every alert and reason code on this page.

Structured Downtime Records

A Stop Writes Itself Into the Record

The moment a machine stops, that event writes into the same table structure that holds every other record on the floor, tagged with a reason code and a timestamp before anyone has to remember what happened later. Weeks later, the detail is still there to query.

Maintenance & Event Triggers

Machine Hours Can Start a Work Order Themselves

Machine hours or a state change can kick off a maintenance work order or notify a technician automatically, without anyone tracking a PM calendar by hand. The same trigger logic also covers a stop or a threshold breach, so a jammed feeder and an overdue service interval both reach the right person without waiting on a shift-change meeting.

AI Agents & Shift Summaries

Let an Agent Draft the Shift Summary

A shift summary agent can review the floor and draft what changed and what needs attention, with a person checking it before it goes out. Ask the same underlying data a plain-language question, like what drove downtime this week, and get an answer grounded in what your operation actually recorded.

Cycle time reduced by 20%

Formlabs combined real-time machine tracking with automated data entry and task management across their production floor. Connecting their processes directly to the platform allowed them to cut cycle times and shorten lead times while boosting overall productivity.

"We know exactly how much time it takes for parts to go through the wash cycle. We can track idle time between stations."
