Step Up to Precision and Performance
savings from just one occurrence
will more than pay for the upgrade.
Most popular CNC brands currently
have some type of email client
server such as Outlook Express, but
this system is the next step up. Te
software is fully automated to send
an array of messages to selectable
locations in diferent modes. Te
email or text message, for example,
can contain one or more alarm
messages, with details provided
as attachments. One email or text
can be sent for each alarm or sent
periodically with all the alarm
messages that have been generated
during a specifed period of time.
Tis is one more area where CNC
can provide a "controlling interest"
for a shop's operation, 24/7.
