Reducing specific costs and increasing productivity
The principal aim of ARTIS is to dependably protect expensive tools, secure and optimise processes and detect faults resulting in unscheduled downtimes at an early stage. Effective tool and process monitoring ensures the quality of both the tool and the process as well as increasing the productivity of machine tools.

Taking the total lifetime costs (TCO or LCC) of a machine tool into account has high priority. The aim is to reduce TCO and LCC while increasing the productivity of the machinery.
