Sorry for the late response.. I was out on vacation for a whole month. ^ Jay I'm assuming you were comparing CIMCO and Predator when you said you prefer CIMCO over the two products. One more question - How much would CIMCO MDM (previously called PDM) cost? Also: How does it better than NC Base? Please note that I don't have a PC next to each machine.

ok. LAST QUESTION - Which is the best DNC & MDC software in the market currently?

^Thanks for the information. We are looking at a wired solution as we have already done the wiring ourselves for the connections. We went wired to reduce cost of wireless controllers/implementation and more importantly reliability. 1. Any idea on the approx. ROI for an MDC solution? Will the company recover the money in 1 year? I know it would vary but what is a realistic timeframe i should look at? 2 .Which is the best DNC/MDC software in the market currently? Reliable, cost effective, user friendly, useful features and fast speed.

Also what is the expected ROI time? Is MDC worth it over the $300 per machine for DNC?
-
Furthermore, most MDC vendors in my area are selling cimco or their own inhouse DNC software at around $90 per machine

Its mostly due to the support for the rest of the products here. I can get the other products as long as I give up on getting local support. If the other products are better, I can get quotes from a close by country. I'm still in the process of getting other quotes..however I would like to know if this price range is right and how the other products are compared to cimco? Which solution regardless to support is the best? A list of top MDC vendors would work fine. FYI-the company is a job shop with small to large prdcn batches.

I have a query : Our shop is looking at implementing DNC & MDC (machine data collection). Reasons: 1. DNC - no viruses and good program version control/proven program database management 2. MDC - to monitor our issues on the shopfloor. Now, Here are my questions: 1. I got some quotes for the DNC + MDC packages and was wondering if the prices i was getting was way too high ($24-30k for ~28 CNCs)? I only got quotes from CIMCO. 2. Is MDC worth it? What should I look out for ? 3. For those that have got an MDC solution, how much did it cost / what was the ROI time for it? 4. Which the the best DNC & MDC software on the market ? Predator? CIMCO? Multi-DNC? DloG? or something else? I appreciate the help.
