What happens when your best programmer retires? Most shops don’t lose a person. They lose years of knowledge. The preferred tools. The proven setups. The fixture assemblies. The tricks that make difficult jobs run smoothly.

Too often, that information lives in:
❌ One person’s head
❌ Old VNC files
❌ Random spreadsheets
❌ Sticky notes and shop notebooks

ToolManageriQ™ helps capture and organize that knowledge so it can be reused by the next programmer, the next shift, and the next generation.
Because the goal isn’t just managing tools.

It’s preserving what your shop has already learned.

What if finding the right tool was as easy as asking?🗣️

“Fritz, do we already have a 1/2-inch end mill?”

“Fritz, have we made a part like this before?”

“Fritz, what tools were used on similar jobs?”

That’s where manufacturing is heading. For years, programmers have searched menus, spreadsheets, databases, and old program files looking for answers.

With ToolManageriQ™ Version 5, we’re exploring a different approach.

Instead of hunting for information…

Ask.

Powered by AI-assisted search and workflow intelligence, Fritz helps connect your tooling knowledge, historical jobs, assemblies, fixtures, and shop data into one searchable system.

Because the future of manufacturing isn’t more menus.

It’s better answers.🎙️

Programming from “assumed tooling” instead of “available tooling.”
That disconnect is expensive.

In many CNC shops, the CAM system and the tool crib are living in two completely different worlds.
That leads to:
❌ Delays at setup
❌ Last-minute tool substitutions or wrong tool completely
❌ Duplicate purchases

ToolManageriQ™ helps bring everything together.
The standalone version gives your tool crib and admin team control over:
✔ Inventory & Supplier info
✔ Part numbers
✔ Tool assemblies & Availability

Inside GibbsCAM® or standalone.

How many times has someone in the shop asked:

“Where’s that vise setup from the last job?” 👀

Most CNC shops don’t just struggle with tooling… they struggle with fixture organization too.

Fixtures, vises, jaws, risers, and assemblies often end up:
❌ Buried inside old VNC files
❌ Saved on one programmer’s computer
❌ Rebuilt over and over again
❌ Lost between shifts or departments

ToolManageriQ™ helps centralize not only your tools, but also your fixture assemblies and setup components in one searchable system.

That means:
✔ Reuse proven setups faster
✔ Standardize fixturing across the shop
✔ Eliminate wasted setup time
✔ Know exactly where fixtures are stored and used

Inside GibbsCAM® or standalone.

👉 Stop searching old files. Start building a smarter workflow.

Quick question for CNC shops:
How many spreadsheets does it take to manage your tooling? 🔩

➤ One for tools.
➤ One for holders.
➤ One for inventory.
➤ One nobody trusts anymore.

At some point, Excel stops being a system… and starts becoming a liability.

ToolManageriQ™ centralizes your tooling, assemblies, fixtures, and setup information into one searchable workflow.

Inside GibbsCAM® or standalone.

👉 Stop searching. Start machining.
