GF Machining Solutions Unveils My rConnect: Your Gateway to Enhanced Machine Connectivity

GF Machining Solutions (GFMS) has introduced its innovative My rConnect platform tailored for the company’s EDM, milling, and laser texturing machines, offering shops seamless connectivity for swift, responsive, and readily accessible service and support, alongside an array of expanded digital features.

Operating entirely in the cloud, My rConnect enables any model of GFMS machine to establish connectivity, provided a computer is linked to the same network as the machine. Even machines lacking direct network access but connected to the internet can leverage the platform’s functionalities.

Security is a top priority, as My rConnect boasts password protection and an enhanced security level, verifying user identity through text message or email code.

This platform serves as a virtual conduit between machines and GFMS’s service and support team, often obviating the need for on-site technician visits. In case of issues, shops can create an event, and a service engineer can remotely diagnose problems via the live Remote Assist function, streamlining troubleshooting at the machine level.

For non-networkable machines, the process remains similar, with GFMS service engineers connecting via Remote Assist and utilizing My rConnect for seamless communication and issue resolution.

My rConnect facilitates efficient documentation management, enabling users to create groups for machines in different production facility locations and request related documentation, such as manuals, directly from the platform.

Furthermore, My rConnect empowers shops with enhanced digital capabilities, offering access to current and future-developed applications to augment machine capabilities. GFMS can seamlessly deploy new apps or updates directly to customer machines, simplifying app acquisition and notifying users upon login.

Notable apps include the Job Recorder, facilitating efficiency reports for wire EDMs and milling machines by recording job data, and the Machine Dashboard, offering real-time machine status updates and detailed job history.

Experience enhanced machine connectivity and digital capabilities with GF Machining Solutions’ My rConnect platform, optimizing productivity and streamlining operations in your shop.
