FAQs

Find answers to the most common questions about our manufacturing intelligence solutions.

01

What is Slytek and how does it improve machine shop performance?

Slytek is a Manufacturing Intelligence Platform designed to maximize uptime, optimize cutting performance, and enable lights out operations. It connects machines, sensors, and systems to deliver real time insights, predictive alerts, and actionable analytics that reduce downtime and improve throughput. Slytek empowers manufacturing teams to respond quickly and make better decisions that improve the process.

02

How does Slytek help with lights out manufacturing and process automation?

Slytek’s TOS monitors tool load to pause operations before tools break and swap out to sister tools with macro interrupts. Adaptive controls will modify feedrates to maintain a consistent tool load and avoid unexpected tool breakage.

Slytek’s SFI enables unattended operation by monitoring the entire process, not just the spindle. With monitored coolant level, coolant temperature, waylube oil level, air pressure and other peripheral processes, teams can ensure that machines are equipped to run autonomously and be alerted when maintenance will be required.

03

What types of machines, controls, and systems does Slytek integrate with?

Slytek supports a wide range of modern and legacy CNC machines and other types of industrial equipment. We can connect to and monitor almost any process. Slytek can integrate with ERP and MES systems to unify shop floor and business data.

04

How quickly can Slytek be deployed in a typical machine shop?

Most deployments can be completed within 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the number of machines, sensors, and processes being monitored. Slytek’s modular architecture allows for phased rollouts, starting with critical assets and expanding as needed.

05

What kind of ROI can machine shops expect from using Slytek?

Shops typically see ROI around the 6 months mark through reduced unplanned downtime, improved tool life, reduced operating costs, and increased throughput. Slytek’s technology helps to identify bottlenecks, optimize cycle times, and reduce scrap, driving measurable gains in efficiency and profitability. On average customers see a 10 to 30 percent increase in machine utilization, 20 to 50 percent reduction in unplanned downtime, and a 5 to 15 percent improvement in OEE.
