What our customers say about AutoTrack

Delko Prebeg

Chief Operating Officer

InFocus [AutoTrack] has been instrumental in increasing our throughput and ensuring that our machines are being utilized to their fullest capabilities

Todd Rzeszut

Machining Manager

Knowing what we have now with the information we can get, I can’t imagine not having that information at my fingertips.

David Branton

Operations Manager

The InFocus [AutoTrack] solution is dynamic, powerful and has near infinite reporting combinations! The insights we gather enable us to make informed decisions on ways to increase the efficiencies within our operations. Having the ability to tailor the reports to our needs is a major benefit of the software.

Mina Girges

Manager of Planning and Analytics

Before [InFocus AutoTrack], we were making decisions out of the gut; now, we are making data‐driven decisions where people are held accountable. These changes and the things that we’re doing have really created a data‐driven culture.

Todd Rzeszut

Machining Manager

We are a fast‐paced, quality‐driven service leader. InFocus [Machining] is very helpful to monitor our machines and notify us in the event that they have unplanned downtime. Downtime reasons are clearly defined and communicated remotely to the supervisors, so they know how to address the issue. Having accurate and real‐time data allows us to monitor progress and improve our efficiencies.

Tom Barr

President

InFocus [AutoTrack] makes a mold shop environment think and operate like a production environment because of the kind of information a shop derives from it. The investment in the InFocus software has paid dividends easily within the first year. If you don’t have machine monitoring right now, you’re behind the curve.

Machine Monitoring

AutoTrack Machine Monitoring provides continuous, automatic visibility into machine performance across the shop floor. The system captures critical production data such as machine uptime, job and task duration, tool usage, feeds and speeds, material types, and operational status directly from the equipment, without manual input or workflow changes.

By collecting real-time and historical machine data in a single system, manufacturers gain an accurate view of how machines are actually utilized throughout the production cycle. This eliminates data gaps, reduces reliance on operator reporting, and minimizes the risk of human error.

Machine Monitoring enables teams to identify inefficiencies, underutilized assets, and performance deviations early. With reliable execution data, operations and manufacturing leaders can optimize workflows, improve machine utilization, and make data-driven decisions that increase productivity, efficiency, and overall equipment effectiveness across the facility.

Job Tracking

AutoTrack Job Tracking for tooling delivers real-time visibility into how tooling jobs move through the manufacturing environment. The system automatically records job status, task progression, tool usage, and time spent at each stage without requiring manual data entry or changes to existing workflows.

By tracking tooling jobs as they are executed, teams gain a clear understanding of workload distribution, active versus queued jobs, and where delays originate. This allows tooling and operations teams to identify constraints early, balance capacity, and ensure that tooling resources are aligned with production demand.

With consistent and reliable job data, AutoTrack supports more accurate planning, improved coordination between tooling and production, and better utilization of critical assets. The result is faster job completion, reduced downtime caused by tooling delays, and more predictable manufacturing operations.

Idle Reasons

Idle Reasons provides detailed visibility into downtime related specifically to tooling operations. By automatically capturing idle events such as tool change delays, tool availability issues, maintenance activities, setup adjustments, or waiting for operator input, the system explains not just when tooling is idle, but why.

This level of insight removes the need for manual downtime reporting and subjective classifications. Idle reasons are recorded consistently and in real time, allowing teams to identify recurring tooling-related issues that impact machine availability and overall production flow.

By analyzing idle reason patterns over time, manufacturers can target the root causes of tooling downtime, optimize tool management processes, and better align maintenance, setup, and production schedules. The result is reduced unnecessary downtime, improved tooling efficiency, and more cost-effective manufacturing operations.

Full Circle Feedback

AutoTrack Job Tracking provides real-time visibility into production jobs across the entire manufacturing floor. The system automatically captures time spent on each job, task progress, part flow, and execution status without manual data entry or workflow disruption.

By tracking jobs as they move through production, teams gain an accurate, up-to-date view of what is running, what is waiting, and where delays are forming. This allows production managers to identify bottlenecks early, balance workloads between resources, and adjust schedules based on actual execution rather than assumptions.

With consistent, real-time job data, AutoTrack Job Tracking supports better production planning, improved resource utilization, and reliable measurement of job completion and throughput. The result is more predictable production performance, reduced downtime, and higher overall operational efficiency.
