Problems We Solve

Key challenges faced by CNC shopfloors.

Dependency on CNC programmer

Hiring CNC programmers is expensive. Without them, the shopfloor stops, leading to total production loss. CNC programming often relies on individual programmers who work on their own terms. You’re always dependent on them for programming and to keep your money-making machines running.

Fear of Machine collisions

Tool and machine collisions on CNC machines are dangerous and expensive. To avoid collisions, programmers and setters spend excessive time on machine setups. Fear of crashes and spindle jams keeps your CNC machines running under-utilized, preventing them from delivering the profits they’re truly capable of.

Complex cycle time calculations

Cycle time calculations are often complex, and programmers tend to avoid them. As a result, they are measured directly on the machines, leading to lost productivity and reduced profits. In the absence of accurate data, CNC job quotes are based on guesswork. You end up quoting high just to stay safe — making your quotes less competitive and harder to win.

Multi-Controller Complexity

Shopfloors often run a mix of machines with different controllers such as Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Mazak, and Haas. Each controller uses its own programming format and structure, creating challenges when the same part runs on multiple controllers simultaneously. Programmers must write separate programs for each controller version, making the process tedious and time-consuming.

Features And Benefits

How CAPsturn helps you boost your CNC turning profits.

Get CNC programs first time right

CAPSturn ensures you get CNC programs FIRST TIME RIGHT. It delivers customized programs that run smoothly on your CNC machine, with no need for corrections. CAPSturn supports over 100 controllers, including industry leaders like Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi, and Haas.

Cycle-time reduction at design level.

CAPSturn calculates accurate cycle time even before the part reaches the machine. It lets you optimize the process during the planning stage, helping you maximize profit from the very first part. CAPSturn generates machine-specific cycle times, allowing you to choose the most economical CNC machine in your Shopfloor

Safely Increase spindle utilization, up to 80%

CAPSturn’s inbuilt spindle power calculations allow you to safely utilize the full potential of your spindles. It helps you maximize material removal rates, reduce cycle times, and boost profits from your CNC machines. With optimized cutting conditions, you stay competitive and never lose an order.

No Experts Needed — Easy CNC Programming for Everyone

Become independent of CNC programmers. Keep your machines running and program CNC parts in just 15 minutes. CAPSturn’s user-friendly CAM for beginners makes it one of the easiest systems to use. No need to hire expert programmers learning time is just 3 hours!

Testimonials

We work with some of the top companies in the manufacturing industry.
Hear directly from their leaders about how our solutions have made a big difference.

We’ve seen a lot of OEE improvements because now we can understand the parts, the spindle runtime, how effectively we are running. It’s actually helped us to move from 3 shifts down to 2 shifts with more output. So we’ve moved from about 30% spindle utilization to now over 55% spindle utilization.

Gavin Price
MD Aaran1 Engineering
Our downtime has decreased by 10%. The downtime, especially in the night shift, has reduced by more than 25%, which is a very, very important thing for us and is contributing a lot towards our productivity.

Deepak Pinto
MD Zenith Precision
Overall, I see at least 8 to 10% efficiency improvement, especially OEE and the spindle run time. Setup time has been reduced and we can see an improvement of at least 10 to 12% production improvement.

B.T. Umesh
DGM, CIM Tools
It takes hardly 10 minutes for a person to connect to the machine. I can tell you that we are able to reduce the downtime, and we are able to improve productivity. The middle level supervisors and managers are also satisfied with the exact data that they are getting from the Leanworx system.

Gurpreet Singh
MD, Pal Shell Cast
With Leanworx we have been able to bring down our machine downtime by about 30% and increase in OEE by 10 to 15%, which is a huge saving. We have been getting fantastic results out of it. The reports that we generate every morning give us a good insight on the productivity and the performance of the operator as well as the machine.

Sanjay Desai
CEO, RBD Engineers

After implementing Leanworx we are no longer discussing the quality of data or accuracy of data. Discussion revolves around what can be done to improve productivity. Looking at the benefit of utilizing and improving the equipment utilization, the incremental cost that we incur by paying the subscription is very small and it's a good value proposition from our point of view.

L Krishnan
MD, TaeguTec India

When a customer asks, What is your OEE? We say 85%. Are we really at 85%? I don't think so. After installing Leanworx and improving systems, it's 88 when we finally checked the last time. So that's a substantial advantage.
