Industry 4.0 & CNC Machine Monitoring in Surat

Short answer

OpeEye gives Surat machine shops — in Sachin, Pandesara, Udhna, Katargam and the Hazira belt — every machine live on the owner's phone: status, pieces against target, downtime with reasons, OEE and cost per piece, from operator tablets set up on-site in an afternoon. Auto-count boxes and Fanuc, Haas or Mitsubishi controller connections are optional add-ons.

Which parts of Surat do we set up in?

Surat's machine shops follow its two big industries and the Hazira belt:

Sachin GIDC — one of Gujarat's largest estates, with engineering and textile-machinery units alongside the chemical and textile plants.
Pandesara GIDC — the textile hub, and the machine shops that build and service looms, processing and folding machines.
Udhna Udyognagar & Katargam — older estates inside the city: job shops and diamond-processing machinery makers.
Hazira belt — the heavy-engineering, steel and energy plants on the Hazira road, and the machining suppliers that serve them.

What Surat shops machine — two very different floors

Surat's machine shops build and maintain the machinery of its two big industries — textiles (looms, embroidery, processing and folding machines) and diamonds — and supply the heavy-engineering and steel plants along the Hazira belt. Textile-machinery parts mean repeat batches with many setups; Hazira work means large, precise parts with inspection and delivery deadlines.

Either way, the owner needs the same three answers during the shift, not after it: which machine is running, what it has made against the target, and why the ones that stopped, stopped.

Industry 4.0 for a Surat machine shop

In Surat, “Industry 4.0” is usually discussed for looms and processing houses. The machine shops that supply them can start with the same idea at their own scale: every machine reporting its state and its count — from a tablet on day one, or a controller connection on the newer CNCs.

With that in place, OEE, downtime by reason and cost per piece come from the same data, and a supplier can show a large customer real numbers instead of promises.

What you get — the same product, wherever the shop is

How on-site setup works in Surat

Surat is the furthest of our regular cities from Rajkot, so visits are scheduled and grouped — Sachin and Pandesara on one day, Udhna, Katargam and the Hazira belt on another — usually within two weeks. The demo runs on your own machines; setup is one afternoon with floor training in Gujarati or Hindi.

If you would rather start now, remote setup over a video call takes the same afternoon. Support afterwards is on WhatsApp and phone, the same day, wherever the shop is.

Questions from Surat shop owners

Do you come to Surat for demos and setup?

Yes, on scheduled visits grouped by area — Sachin, Pandesara, Udhna, Katargam and the Hazira belt — usually within two weeks. A demo and setup over a video call are available straight away.

We make textile-machinery parts with frequent changeovers. Will it show setup losses?

Yes. Setup is logged as its own state against the job card, so setup against plan per job and per machine is on the dashboard, and the daily report shows how much of each shift went into changeovers.

Can training and support be in Hindi?

Yes — floor training, WhatsApp support and calls are in Gujarati, Hindi or English, whichever the floor prefers.

Do we need internet on the shop floor?

A basic Wi-Fi router or a 4G hotspot is enough. Tablets keep logging without internet and sync automatically when it returns, with the original times, so reports stay correct.

What does it cost for a Surat shop?

₹399 per machine per month — the same whether the machine is on Manual (operators tap on a tablet) or Automatic (the machine counts itself). Automatic adds a one-time auto-count box per machine, installed by us, quoted in the demo; a direct controller connection, where the control supports it, uses one gateway shared by the floor. More than 15 machines: volume pricing on request. No per-user fees, no setup fee, no long contract, free 15-day trial. Tablets are the only hardware you buy, locally.
