Our Mission Is To Save Manufacturing By Increasing Efficiency – Typically 5 to 20% Using our patent pending technology, we can uniquely increase your efficiency to monitor & control your machine tools. OEE can monitor ANY MACHINE in real-time; reporting on cycle time, parts produced, reject analysis, labor tracking and more, all to reduce downtime & improve efficiency for any and all machines. DNC can control machines and load programs fast, with special features, all increasing efficiency. Component hardware (Memory, Connectivity, File Servers, BTR, etc.) we offer to make machines perform faster.

Shop Floor to Top Floor Automation - in Real-Time OEE metrics of ANY and ALL machines with a direct hardware connectionImmediate Visibility of production status and comprehensive data collection Send ERP or scheduled work orders and/or CNC programs direct to the machine. Receive actual real-time status and Shop Floor results immediately back to the Top Floor. Increase efficiency with information - If you can Measure it – then you can Manage it. More detail Manufacturing Connectivity Solutions Machine Monitoring & Control with OEE+DNC Enables Flexibility for Manufacturing Productivity Integrated machine monitoring and adaptive control with OEE+DNC has been demonstrated using a robot to aid loading a CNC machine, offering automation for manufacturing flexibility and productivity that can increase profitability. A showcase, hosted by the Canadian Tooling & Machining Association at the New Age Robotics site demonstrated an ABB robot loading and unloading various materials integrated with a CNC machine to manufacture several discrete parts. The two machines were controlled by one Memex Ax9150 Universal Machine Interface (UMI) board. The Memex ProductionACE OEE+DNC (Overall Equipment Effectiveness + Digital Numerical Control) server software was connected to the UMI board, which in turn was connected to the robot and the CNC machine. OEE software monitored the machines in real-time and determined production status linked to the scheduled work orders. When the CNC machine was ready, the command was given to the robot to begin the load sequence for the material defined in the work order. The CNC machine was then given the specific DNC part program to be loaded, also referenced in the work order, and the comand to begin machining. The mixed production material was loaded by the robot and the different parts were dynamically machined by the CNC. It was a masterful demonstration of flexible manufacturing, with all the benefits of an expensive FMS system, done on a budget. |

Memex Offers Hardware & Software Tools for Manufacturing We can increase the efficiency of any of your existing machines
MACHINE MONITORING - OEE Software Customers of ours generally see production improvements on the shop floor in the 5 - 20% range, with a payback to the bottom line typically measured in months. The Memex machine monitoring solution is based on a Universal Communications Interface (UMI) Ax9150 platform representing a combination of software and hardware to connect to any machine. It has been designed to be an inexpensive solution with advanced features and functions. It offers a powerful signal conditioning logic ladder utility that allows ANY machine to be monitored. BENEFITS INCLUDE - Real-time production visibility for everyone in the plant – including alerts through email or paging.
- Operator productivity with real-time reaction
- Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) metrics for productivity measuring.
- Better tracking and analysis of reasons for machine failure
- Recovering downtime
- Reducing rejects
- Tracking direct machine tool usage and improving maintenance
- Productivity improvement that will enhance your competitiveness
CNC DATA SERVER Memex Automation introduces CNC connectivity that maximizes program usage at the machine. Save time and increase reliability, by loading large files locally (buffering up to 2 Gb) with a graphical interface for “dragand drop” of files between a PC and CNC. By Reducing Operating Costs — Turn it into Profit. Ax2200HS offers supplemental memory, it is the first product to utilize this revolutionary way part programs are managed on your factory floor, transfer files seamlessly between CNC and PC. Easy installation on any control with our many options for Universal Network Interfaces. Old machines can now perform at today’s standards. CNC CONTROL - DNC SOFTWARE AxDNC for Windows XP, Vista through to Windows 95 is a 32-bit multi-threaded communications & file management system allowing simultaneous upload and download to multiple CNC controls and includes a CNC Editor and Backplotter. AxDNC is easily connected to CAD/CAM systems over industry standard networks and is available in a Client-Server configuration. Besides machine tool DNC communications, other shop floor data can be collected from shop terminals, tool pre-setters, bar code equipment or SPC systems. CNC MEMORY UPGRADES In the discrete manufacturing metalworking sector, Memex is known for its' Fanuc & Yasnac CNC memory upgrades, BTR tape reader emulators & AxDNC machine tool file transfer software. We also offer firmware upgrades, Mitsubishi & Mazatrol memory as well as SRAM cards. Our newest product offers local to the machine memory, up to 1 Gig, allowing "Fast Store, Paced Forward" to load on the control at it's maximum speed - ideal for large programs requiring control at the machine. SHOP FLOOR CONNECTIVITY SOLUTIONS Memex has hardware for communications, networked, ethernet and wireless to connect all your machines on the shop floor. This has the benefit of improving productivity by faster program loading and monitoring results. Memex offers various cables, data shuttles, battery replacement units and other various connectivity components for the machine tool industry.
