CNC Machine Telemetry
in Michigan

Real-time telemetry from your CNC machine — 16 sensor types, all data stored in Michigan under Michigan law. Vibration, thermal, acoustic, spindle load, axis force, power quality. Your machine’s complete health picture, on your screen, on your hardware, owned by you.

Why Michigan Manufacturers Need This Now

Your machine is generating data. The question is who has it.

Every CNC machine on your shop floor is generating valuable telemetry data — spindle loads, thermal cycles, vibration patterns, power quality events. Most of that data disappears the moment the cycle ends. Some of it is being transmitted to the machine manufacturer’s servers if your machine has a network connection.

RigidSense captures all of it locally — before it goes anywhere else — and stores it in RigidVault on Michigan hardware under your account. What you get:

  • Real-time dashboards accessible from any device on your shop network
  • Anomaly detection that flags unusual patterns before they become failures
  • Historical process data searchable by date, machine, part number, or operator
  • Predictive maintenance signals for bearings, spindle, ballscrews, and tooling
  • Data sovereignty — your process intelligence stays in your building, in your state

Michigan manufacturers supplying automotive, defense, and aerospace primes are increasingly asked to demonstrate process control and data integrity. A full telemetry record with RigidVault provenance timestamps is exactly that evidence.

The 16 Sensor Types

Everything your machine generates. All of it captured.

📡 Vibration (3-Axis)
X, Y, Z axis vibration at high sample rate. Chatter detection, bearing diagnostics, resonance identification. The most information-dense signal on a CNC machine.
🔊 Acoustic Emission
High-frequency acoustic emission from the cutting zone and machine structure. Tool-workpiece contact quality, bearing defect detection, structural crack propagation.
⚡ Spindle Current
Spindle motor current at high resolution. Tool wear trending, cutting force estimation, spindle health monitoring. Non-invasive current clamp measurement.
🌡 Thermal (Multi-Zone)
Spindle bearing temperature, axis linear guide temperature, ballscrew thermal rise, coolant temperature. Thermal drift compensation inputs for precision machining.
📊 Axis Load (X/Y/Z)
Feed axis servo current revealing cutting forces on each axis. Chip load verification, tool deflection estimation, asymmetric load detection.
🔌 Power Quality
Line voltage, current, power factor, and harmonic distortion on the machine power feed. Electrical fault early warning and energy consumption tracking.
💧 Coolant Flow & Pressure
Coolant delivery confirmation, flow rate, and pressure. Clogged line detection, pump wear indicators, coolant system health.
🚪 Door & Safety Interlocks
Door state, E-stop events, safety relay status. Cycle interruption logging, safety compliance documentation, operator behavior patterns.
💾 Encoder Feedback
Axis position encoder data for following error analysis, backlash detection, and servo tuning diagnostics. Advanced diagnostics for precision applications.
Sovereign Telemetry vs. Cloud Telemetry

The difference matters for Michigan manufacturers.

✖ Cloud Telemetry Services
  • Data sent to out-of-state servers
  • Foreign jurisdiction may apply
  • OEM retains license to use your data
  • Subscription ends → data access lost
  • Your process knowledge trains their AI
  • No provenance record for your IP
✓ RigidSense + RigidVault
  • All data captured locally on your Node
  • Michigan hardware, Michigan law
  • You own the data outright — always
  • Data persists regardless of subscription
  • Your process knowledge stays proprietary
  • Cryptographic provenance timestamp per event
Questions

CNC telemetry Michigan — answered.

No machine modification required. All RigidSense sensors mount externally — accelerometers on spindle housings and axis carriages, current clamps on drive wiring, thermal sensors clipped or adhered to housings. The machine controller is not touched. Installation takes 3–5 hours per machine during a scheduled maintenance window.
RigidSense is machine-agnostic. It captures physical signals (vibration, acoustic, current) externally, independent of the machine controller. It works with Haas, FANUC-controlled machines, Mazak, Okuma, Hurco, Centroid, and open-loop stepper-based routers. Compatibility confirmed on the free Node Advisory call.
All telemetry is stored on your RigidNode (local compute) and synced to RigidVault — RAID-redundant Michigan hardware under Michigan law. No data is sent to foreign cloud servers. For shops that want fully air-gapped telemetry storage with no internet path at all, the Full Sovereign deployment option keeps everything within your facility.
Yes, through your RigidVault account. Data syncs from the local Node to your sovereign vault over an encrypted tunnel. You can monitor machine status, view alerts, and access historical data from any device. If you want zero external access — local dashboard only, no cloud sync — that is also configurable.
