Most shops learn that a machine sat idle from the end-of-shift report, if at all. XpertTrack machine monitoring uses a magnet-mounted sensor to read machine vibration and shows running, idle, downtime, and offline status live inside ShopXpert. No wiring, no controller integration, and no separate platform.
You cannot improve utilization you cannot see.
The problemMost machine monitoring needs controller access, adapters, and an electrician.
The XpertTrack sensor mounts on the machine with a magnet. It measures vibration and motion and sends readings every few seconds, and ShopXpert turns them into running, idle, downtime, and offline status.
Because it reads vibration rather than controller signals, it works on almost any equipment that vibrates while it runs: CNC mills and lathes, presses, CMMs, and robot arms, new or old.
The problemMonitoring projects stall waiting for IT, network changes, and integrations.
Mount the sensor, connect it in the ShopXpert app, and monitoring starts. A gateway is included with every sensor package and connects to the internet over WiFi or Ethernet, without changes to your internal network.
Sensors talk to the gateway wirelessly, and the gateway sends the data securely to ShopXpert.
The problemCapacity decisions are made from the schedule, not from what the machines actually did.
The Asset Usage dashboard shows how much time each machine spent running, idle, in downtime, or offline, as hours and percentages. Filter by location, department, team, and date range.
Historical data is stored for reporting, so you can compare shifts, spot machines that are always waiting, and plan capacity on real numbers.
The problemInspection and automation equipment are often the real bottleneck, and the least visible.
Put XpertTrack on coordinate measuring machines to see when inspection capacity is the constraint, and on robot cells to confirm they are running when they should be.
Downtime alerts tell the right people when a machine stops, so it does not wait for someone to walk by.

XpertTrack is part of ShopXpert, not another login.
Machine monitoring tracks when equipment is running, idle, or stopped, so you can measure utilization and respond to downtime. XpertTrack does this with vibration sensing, a common approach in condition monitoring.
The sensor measures vibration and motion and sends readings every few seconds. ShopXpert classifies them as running, idle, downtime, or offline.
No. XpertTrack mounts with a magnet and needs no wiring, PLC, or controller integration.
Any equipment that vibrates while it works, including CNC mills and lathes, presses, CMMs, and robot arms, regardless of brand or age.
XpertTrack sensors and a gateway, which is included with every sensor package and connects over WiFi or Ethernet. The data appears in the ShopXpert Asset Usage dashboard.
