Real-Time CNC Monitoring, Built In-House at C.R. Onsrud
Osync 4.0
When C.R. Onsrud customers asked for better visibility into how their machines were actually running, we didn’t go shopping for a third-party platform to bolt on. We built one. Osync® is the machine monitoring and OEE analytics platform engineered by the same team that designs and assembles C.R. Onsrud CNC routers and machining centers. It reads directly from FANUC FOCAS and MTConnect — no inferential guesswork and no blame loop between a software vendor and a machine builder when you need clear explanations.
One team. One support call. Real accountability.
Most machine monitoring platforms are built by software companies that have never wired a control cabinet or torqued a spindle. Osync is different by design. C.R. Onsrud has been building precision CNC machines in Troutman, North Carolina since 1976 — we understand what’s happening inside a controller because we wired it.
When you call us about a data anomaly, you speak directly to experts who understand the kinematics, the controller, the machine, and the software. You will not be dealing with a frustrating handoff between unrelated vendors..
Universal connectivity, with extra depth where it counts
Osync connects to any MTConnect-compatible CNC machine and any FANUC FOCAS-controlled machine. A shop with a mix of equipment gets one dashboard across every connected machine, regardless of brand.
On C.R. Onsrud machines specifically, Osync goes deeper. It extracts hidden data that open protocols miss, such as detailed axis loading patterns, machine-specific alarm context, and specific operational insights that come from knowing exactly how the machine was engineered. The same machine. The same team. A more complete picture.
Built for the questions every CNC shop actually asks
Get a second-by-second record of every alarm, mode change, and idle period pulled directly from the controller. When a crash happens at 2 AM, you don’t interview people the next morning — you open the timeline and see the exact sequence of events shifting from reactive troubleshooting to proactive, data-driven root cause analysis. The answer to “what happened?” is always accessible, objective, and immediate for proactive, data-driven response.
Maximize equipment lifespace with runtime-based preventative maintenance scheduling that’s tied to actual machine hours, not just calendar dates. You’ll get greasing reminders for your machine running two shifts well before a one-shift machine, ensuring high-utilized machines receive sufficient lubrication and avoiding overgreasing the lower utilized ones. This guarantees consistent maintenance through automatic scheduling.
The PM Manager also lets you defer scheduled maintenance during critical jobs when you can’t afford to take your machine offline in the middle of the job. It then reminds you to perform the deferred service once the current order is complete.
Real-time dashboards
See every connected machine on a single screen, with unlimited viewer licenses included in the per-machine price. Operators, supervisors, owners — everyone sees the same data. No per-viewer charges — just visibility that naturally transforms behavior on the shop floor.
Osync Restore®
Automatically protect the production programs, machine parameters, and tool files that keep your operation running. Your critical manufacturing data is secured around the clock without manual intervention.
Transparent pricing. No surprises.
Unlimited viewer licenses included — no per-user fees
No setup fees. No long-term contracts.
See it on your controller, not a simulation
The fastest way to evaluate Osync is to see it connected to the same controller you actually run — not a polished demo on a simulated machine. We’ll show you Osync on your equipment and answer the FANUC, MTConnect, or proprietary-controller questions specific to your floor.
