See what your machines are really doing
You already track the jobs. We add the half you can't get by hand — real run-time and live machine status — and put it on the work order in kaniva. Non-invasive: nothing in your controller, no software on your machines.
FloorLink demo — simulated data
You track the jobs. We add the timing.
Your operators already log what they're working on. A sealed sensor on each machine adds the part no one can capture by hand — exact run-time, machine status, and a rough cycle count — and auto-fills it onto the work order. Together, that's real utilization and OEE, not guesses or end-of-day estimates.
Non-invasive by design
Watch, don't wire in
A sealed sensor reads each machine from the outside — a clamp on the power feed or a stick-on light sensor. Nothing is installed in your controller and nothing is reprogrammed.
Your connection, your call
The sensors send data over Wi-Fi — your shop's, or a small isolated network the kit brings, or its own cellular for full isolation. No controller integration and nothing for your IT to manage.
Onto the work order
Run-time, status, and cycle counts post straight into kaniva, right next to the job your operators already track. The office finally sees what the floor is actually doing.
How a project runs
Shop walk
We tour the floor, see your machines, and pick the right sensor for each — and start with the jobs you already track.
Pilot
We wire up one machine or one cell, prove the run-time and counts are accurate, and put them on the work order.
Roll out
Add machines one at a time, only as each pays for itself, with the dashboards and support to keep it honest.
Where to start
Shop Floor Tracking
The foundation — operators track jobs, status, and scrap on a tablet, tied to kaniva.
From $3,000
Setup + subscription
- kaniva set up to your work centers
- Tablet job-tracking kiosks
- Live job board for the office
- Labor time + scrap capture
- 1-day onsite training
Machine Sensor Kit
Add real run-time, status + cycle counts per machine — non-invasive, off your network.
From $400–900 / machine
+ one-time $2,500 platform setup
- Sealed sensor per machine
- Run / idle / down + cycle count
- Nothing in your controller or network
- Auto-fills actual hours on the WO
- Works on old + dumb machines
Utilization & OEE
Turn the data into the numbers an owner actually runs the shop on.
From $3,000 + $200–600/mo
Build + managed dashboards
- Utilization by machine + shift
- OEE where the data supports it
- Downtime Pareto + alerts
- Floor TV + office views
- Ongoing tuning + support
Not sure where you'd land? A paid shop walk gets you a roadmap and rough numbers before you commit to anything.

Common questions
Do you put anything on my machines or my PCs?
No software touches your controllers or your computers, and your machines are never networked — the sensors read each machine from the outside. To get the data to the office you choose: your existing Wi-Fi, a small isolated network the kit brings, or its own cellular gateway so nothing's on your network at all. Either way, no controller integration and nothing for your IT to babysit.
Will it work on my old or 'dumb' machines?
Yes — that's the point. A sealed sensor reads run-time and cycle count off almost anything, brand new or twenty years old, without replacing or modifying a thing. Old iron is exactly where this shines.
What can't it tell me? (the honest answer)
It captures run / idle / down state and a rough cycle count — not exact part counts, part quality, feeds and speeds, or alarm codes. Quality and the 'why it stopped' come from your operators (which we already capture); deep controller data is only possible on machines that already publish it, and that's a separate conversation. We'd rather be straight about that than oversell it.
Start with one machine
Prove the run-time is real before you spend on the next one. That's the whole pitch.
