autinityVC – Quality control directly inside the machine tool
autinityVC integrates quality inspection into the machining process and optimizes it in real time. During ongoing production, the solution analyzes vibration and process data, compares it with stored reference values, and responds immediately to deviations. This makes it possible to evaluate parts directly inside the machine, reject defective workpieces, and safeguard production processes across all process steps – resulting in less scrap, higher productivity, and 100% traceability.

Secure quality where it is created with autinityVC
Real-time monitoring
Vibration and process data are recorded directly during machining.
Inline quality inspection
Parts are evaluated as they are being produced – not only afterwards.
100% traceability
All relevant data can be traced for every single part.
Active response
The machine can take targeted action if threshold values are exceeded.
The software ecosystem – scalable from a single machine to your enterprise
The software is installed close to the machine on the autinityLogger (industrial PC). It captures high-frequency raw data from vibration sensors as well as data from the machine controller (PLC) for one machine at a time. The data can be stored locally or on a network drive.
The analysis tool for vibration data is used to create references with charts and visualizations, as well as for trend analysis and historical process analysis. Examples include 3D analysis, harmonic cursors, and spectrum overlay.
The central management tool for all VibroControls is AI-ready and future-proof. It provides centralized updates, reference management, OK/NOK part evaluation, status displays, notifications, and automatic backups. State-of-the-art database technology enables efficient analysis across all machines.
Reduce scrap directly during production. With autinityVC, quality becomes measurable before defective parts are produced.
One step ahead with autinityVC
Reduce process errors and avoid rework.
Identify issues early, before defective parts are produced.
Better assess tool conditions and optimize dressing cycles/reprofiling.
Ensure stable manufacturing processes through real-time monitoring.
Every part remains traceable through process and vibration data.
Quality inspection takes place within the ongoing production instead of in the measuring room.
Technology that transforms data into quality
autinityVC combines intelligent analysis with process-based quality assessment, enabling reliable decisions directly at the machine.
-
Teach Mode uses machine learning to support the automatic creation and optimization of reference profiles based on real production data.
- Learns from real processes
References are created based on actual manufacturing data. - Quick to adapt
New conditions can be learned efficiently. - Machine learning supports setup
The creation of reference profiles is intelligently supported.
- Learns from real processes
-
References can be adapted according to the process step and spindle speed. This enables significantly more precise process assessment than rigid threshold values.
- Process-specific evaluation
Each phase of the tool cycle can be assigned its own reference values. - Greater accuracy
The analysis is more precise than with fixed threshold values for each process step. - Greater flexibility
Changes in the process or tool geometry can be mapped more effectively.
- Process-specific evaluation
-
The VibroControl Server makes autinityVC a central platform for scalable quality monitoring. Instead of managing each machine separately, multiple systems, reference profiles, and users can be organized, compared, and efficiently controlled through one central system.
- Centralized management instead of isolated machine views
Machines, data, and reference profiles are managed in one place. - Scalable for multiple machines
The VibroControl Server is designed for teams and enterprise environments. - User and data management at a glance
Machines can be centrally monitored, compared, and managed.
- Centralized management instead of isolated machine views
How autinityVC works
Frequently asked questions about autinityVC
What is autinityVC?
autinityVC is a software solution for inline quality inspection in machine tools. It analyzes vibration and process data in real time.
What applications is autinityVC suitable for?
It is designed for the hard machining of gears, shafts, and rings, as well as for processes such as honing, grinding, hard turning, and power skiving. autinityVC has proven particularly effective in e-mobility applications and other highly demanding machine tool processes.
What benefits does autinityVC offer?
Less scrap, lower quality costs, greater process reliability, and 100% traceability.
How does autinityVC differ from a pure monitoring solution?
autinityVC does more than just monitor, it enables active quality control directly within the process.
Which machine manufacturers does autinityVC support?
autinityVC can be deployed across different machine manufacturers. Examples include EMAG, Felsomat, Gleason, Junker, Kapp, Liebherr, Nidec, Präwema, Profilator, Reishauer, and Klingelnberg.
Other machine types with different control systems can also be integrated as well.
Where is autinityVC used in practice?
autinityVC is used worldwide by leading machine manufacturers and automotive suppliers, including Gleason, Nidec, and Profilator. Customers have achieved particularly strong savings, especially in the e-mobility sector.
How can autinityVC interact with the production process?
autinityVC can capture additional process parameters from the PLC and automatically link them to the recorded spectra. This enables fast and direct communication with the machine, including:
- immediate rejection of the part currently being machined if autinityVC detects a quality deviation
- immediate emergency retraction in the event of an impact alarm to prevent further contamination inside the machine
