Maintenance management for metal and machining plants with bakimo
On CNC machines, machining centers and cutting/bending lines, an unexpected breakdown directly affects order delivery dates. bakimo brings the maintenance issues typically faced in metalworking plants under one roof.
Counter-based preventive maintenance on CNC machines
When run-hour or part-count counters reach the target threshold, the system opens a work order automatically; it prevents duplicate work orders and recalculates the next target automatically on closure.
OEE and automatic downtime tracking
Production data is collected automatically from PLC/Modbus-connected machines; when a machine stops, the system detects it and opens an automatic downtime record — downtime reasons can be categorized afterward.
Cutting tool and spare parts stock tracking
Frequently used cutting tools, inserts and bearings trigger an early warning once stock reaches a critical level; material added to a work order is deducted from stock automatically.
Machine-level cost and fault reporting
Which machine has the higher maintenance cost and fault frequency becomes visible through reports built on labor and material data, informing renewal/investment decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is counter-based maintenance triggered?
A counter such as operating hours or number of parts produced is defined; once the threshold is reached, a periodic maintenance work order opens automatically.
Is cutting tool life tracked?
Yes, cutting tool/insert consumption is processed as a stock movement, and you get an alert when tools reach a critical level.
How long does setup take?
Since you can import your own machine and maintenance definitions via an Excel template, setup typically takes 2-4 weeks.
