Live machine data, utilization and OEE, secure DNC, scheduling, and quality on one on-prem platform, with Pulse IQ grading its own predictions against what your floor actually did. Built on a working aerospace and defense floor.
Two expectations are converging on the same shop: margins that want visibility and customers who want evidence. The tools most shops run on were designed to move files and count parts, not to show what every machine is doing right now, or to prove exactly what happened last Tuesday. That gap shows up in quotes, in audits, and in the morning meeting.
Your CNC programs are intellectual property. On defense work, they can be controlled unclassified information. Most shops still move them on thumb drives and shared folders with no record of who took what, where, or when.
You need Program Pulse →Spindles sit idle while the schedule lives in a spreadsheet and status lives in someone's head. And when a vendor bolts on "AI alerts," they arrive with no published accuracy and no authority model: noise, not signal.
You need Shop Pulse + Pulse IQ →When the auditor asks who approved revision C and when it reached the machine, the answer is a week of digging through emails, folders, and memory. Evidence should be a byproduct of running the shop, not a project, whether the audit comes from a registrar, a prime, or your largest customer.
You need The revision ledger →Every subscription runs on the Production Pulse Server and at least one module. Start where it hurts most, then expand; everything shares the same machines, parts, jobs, users, and audit trail.
The foundation: role-based dashboards, report builder, eight-level RBAC, ERP integrations, one audit log.
The platform →The live floor: machine status, utilization and OEE, drag-and-drop scheduling, labor.
See the floor →Secure DNC where G-code is a controlled document: vaults, revisions, quarantine.
The wedge →Statistical surveillance on live machine data, findings graded on the record.
Surveillance →Warnings committed before outcomes and graded in the open, authority earned in stages, and Pilot: ask your floor anything, answered from the record or not at all.
How it earns trust →Tool Pulse, Locate Pulse, Pulse Lab, built in a shop that never stops asking.
The roadmap →The modules you deploy work from day one: monitoring, DNC, scheduling, the audit trail. Pulse IQ is the part that starts by watching. For its first 30 days it commits every warning to the hash-chained journal before the outcome exists, grades itself against what the floor actually did, and keeps dollar claims dark until its own control arm earns them. At day 30 you read the scoreboard and decide how much authority it has earned: promote it to propose actions, or leave it watching. Other vendors hand you a slide about their accuracy. Here the software grades itself on your machines, and the number is yours to read.
An advanced manufacturing intelligence platform for precision machine shops. It combines live machine monitoring, utilization and OEE analytics, secure DNC with revision control, scheduling, and quality surveillance on one on-premises server, and Pulse IQ grades its own predictions on an auditable record. The platform →
No. Production Pulse deploys on a server inside your network. Programs, machine data, and production records stay on-premises, and Pulse IQ and Pulse Pilot can run fully air-gapped on a sealed appliance. Zero outbound connections are required. How deployment works →
The modules you deploy work from day one. Pulse IQ runs observe-only for its first 30 days: it commits every prediction to a hash-chained journal before the outcome exists and grades itself against what the floor actually did. At day 30 you read the measured track record and decide how much authority to grant it: promote it to propose actions, or leave it watching. The first 30 days →

Fanuc controls connect natively over FOCAS, with 40+ machines polled live on the proving floor today. Any control with an Ethernet or RS-232 connection does DNC, the G-code editor understands Fanuc, Haas, Siemens, and LinuxCNC dialects, and a wizard migrates a Predator DNC library with its history. What it works with →
It supports the access-control, configuration-management, and audit-evidence practices your self-assessment attests to, and keeps them true daily rather than the week before you post a score. It is a foundation for compliance, not a certification by itself. The pause and the standard →
Support is part of the subscription, not an upsell: same business day, from the team that builds the platform and runs it on a working floor. Call 440-266-7700 or email support@productionpulse.com. Support →
A demo takes an hour. We will walk your parts, your machines, and your priorities through the platform, Pulse IQ and Pilot included, and leave you with a straight assessment either way.
Book a demo →Every claim on this page is a structural fact of the platform; nothing here is a forecast. Pulse IQ's receipts are illustrative and the hero telemetry panel is a simulated feed; your deployment grades its own.
