Forge turns raw Mazak tags into one clean, governed schema your AI agent already understands. One MCP call, no per-machine integration project.
Mazak SmartBox and SMOOTH controls stream over MTConnect, but Mazatrol program state and multi-spindle load values arrive as vendor tags (S1speed, Sload) that need normalizing per model.
Typical Mazak equipment communicates over MTConnect, OPC UA. Each firmware revision, model line and integrator names the same physical quantity differently, so every AI or analytics project pays the integration tax again, the tax that cancels 40% of industrial AI deployments before they ship.
Forge normalizes Mazak telemetry into Forge's canonical field set, the same 366 canonical fields used across all 18 manufacturers. Point Forge at the machine, pass oem: "mazak", and spindle speed is spindle_speed_rpm whether it came from a Mazak controller or anything else on the floor.
Confirmed canonical fields your agent gets from Mazak machines, drawn from Forge's 16,908-mapping corpus:
| Raw tag in | Canonical field out | Meaning | |
|---|---|---|---|
| S1speed: 12000 | → | spindle_speed_rpm: 12000 | spindle 1 speed |
| Sload: 55 | → | spindle_load_pct: 55 | spindle load |
| main_program: "MZK1200" | → | program_name: "MZK1200" | Mazatrol program |
| partcount: 2210 | → | part_count: 2210 | part count |
No SDK, no per-tag mapping, no historian project. Connect the MCP server and normalize live Mazak data:
Unknown tags never get force-mapped. Fields below the confidence floor abstain rather than guess, so your agent never acts on a bad reading.
