Biesse America Launches SOPHIA App

Biesse America (Charlotte, NC) has announced the arrival of SOPHIA, its new Internet of Things app. This cloud-based software management tool displays real-time availability of machine status, performance and functionality, all in the name of higher productivity.

According to Biesse, SOPHIA can predict a forthcoming machine failure – such as excessive vibration or high temperature of a CNC router’s electro spindles.

“SOPHIA is continuously accumulating, monitoring and analyzing a numeric-controlled machine’s data via a cloud-based computing network on a real-time basis,” said Cesare Magnani, brand sales manager of Biesse America. “From the cloud, information such as a machine’s performance history and operating statistics are filtered and analyzed to provide projections of the machine’s future behavior. This information is easily accessible through a mobile app for the customer anywhere, anytime.”
