Manukai is an on‑premise AI tool that searches a plant’s CAM/NC history for geometrically similar features and adapts proven machining operations to new parts. It integrates directly with Mastercam and TopSolid, inserting suggested toolpaths while keeping full user control over parameters. The platform reduces programming time by up to 80% and lowers cycle times by up to 15% without transmitting any data outside the facility.
