Application-to-person from CNC machines

User can now get instant text messages from Okuma CNC machines anywhere.


Dayton, Ohio – Manufacturing software and systems developer GO-Code has developed an A2P (Application-to-person) messaging system that enables Okuma machine owners to receive text alerts from their CNC machine tools directly to their smart phones.

Using SMS technology and Internet access, GO-TextAlert allows multiple phone numbers to receive trouble alarms, status codes and customized data. The software’s many benefits include:

  • 24/7 monitoring of machine tool activity that is especially helpful for unattended and lights-out operations.
  • Information automatically comes to the user. Eliminates the need to check on machine activity or being unaware that a machine is standing idle or experiencing problems.
  • Alerts come to the users wherever they are. The system pushes the alerts directly to all designated mobile phones, wherever there is coverage. 
  • Quick and easy setup. Users simply enter the multiple phone numbers they want to receive alerts.

GO-TextAlert is a proprietary software license connected to a specific Okuma CNC machine serial number. Capabilities may vary depending on the Okuma control version in use. To learn more, contact your Okuma distributor or call GO-Code @ 937.228.5174.
