NCTune software
Manufacturing software
NCTune develops two independent products: Revision Manager controls revisions and releases, while Shop Floor Time records work progress directly on the shop floor.
Two products.
Two different challenges.
Revision Manager and Shop Floor Time have separate roles and can operate independently. Choose the process you need to bring under control.
Revision Manager
Versions, revisions and controlled releases.
Problem
NC programs and technical documents are changed in several locations, making it difficult to identify the version released for production.
Solution
Revision history, approvals and controlled release of the correct files to the shop floor.
Shop Floor Time
Operation progress recorded on the shop floor.
Problem
Time, quantities and downtime are written down after the work is finished, leaving gaps in the record of how the operation actually progressed.
Solution
An operator terminal for capturing operations, time, quantities and downtime, with a structured management view.
Which solution fits?
Start with the need, not a feature list. The two standard products address different challenges, while a custom application remains a separate direction.
Two products, two different tasks. Revision Manager and Shop Floor Time can operate independently. Choosing one does not require implementing the other.
When the process does not fit a standard product.
A custom application is the right direction when neither Revision Manager nor Shop Floor Time addresses the process you need to improve.
A focused application can reflect the actual workflow, data and rules needed by its users instead of moving work between Excel, paper and systems that do not fit together.

The problem, data and acceptance criteria are agreed before work begins. Any pilot scope is shaped individually around the process and the plant environment.
- DiscoveryDefine what needs to be controlled and how the outcome will be assessed.
- Demo or limited scopeBegin with a limited process, workstation or user group.
- ImplementationAfter the pilot is accepted, agree refinements, documentation and the next scope.
