Beacon Onshore· by Onshore Systems

Your machines run less than you think.

Beacon Onshore clamps a wireless sensor on any machine — CNC, press, or robot arm, new or 30 years old — and shows you live run / idle / down state, true utilization, OEE, and why it stopped. No PLC integration. No shop-floor IT.

Running in an afternoon

No integrator, no downtime, nothing wired into your controller.

1

Clamp on the sensor

Magnet or zip-tie to the spindle, motor, or frame. About 10 minutes per machine.

2

It reads the machine

Vibration and motion tell it run / idle / off. Data streams to the cloud over your wifi or a cellular gateway.

3

You see the floor

Live state, utilization, OEE, and a downtime Pareto — from any browser, on the plant floor or off it.

What you get

Live machine state

Every asset on one screen — running, idle, faulted, or off — refreshed continuously.

Real utilization & OEE

The number you're guessing at today, measured. Availability × performance × quality.

Downtime Pareto

Stoppages ranked by cause and lost hours, so you fix the ones that matter first.

Robots as first-class assets

Arms and AMRs monitored the same way — state, cycles, faults — read-only, never commanded.

Alerts on unplanned stops

Know a line went down when it happens, not at the end of the shift.

One login, whole floor

Mixed brands and machine ages in a single view. Add equipment as data, not a project.

Why it's different

  • Works on any machine regardless of age or brand — if it vibrates when it runs, Beacon reads it
  • Nothing wired into the controller. No PLC tags, no OPC-UA project, no vendor lock
  • Installs in minutes per machine, not a multi-month rollout
  • Tier-1 monitoring only — motion, safety, and e-stop stay entirely with your certified controller
  • Built and run by Onshore Systems on our own production infrastructure

Who it's for

  • 3PLs and warehouses running robot arms and AMRs
  • Job shops and small manufacturers with mixed, older equipment
  • Ops leaders who can't get a straight answer on true machine utilization
  • Plants that tried an MES or IoT project and stalled on integration

See it on your floor

Book a 15-minute call and we'll walk through the live dashboard with your machine mix. If it's a fit, we'll ship sensors for a free 2-week pilot on 3 machines — you keep the data either way.
