[Discover Automatic Learning](https://www.jitbase.com/demo) ## **Outdated or estimated cycle times** In most shops: - Cycle times are estimated or taken from simulations - Planners and operators manually adjust times after each run - ERP data never matches what actually happens on the floor - Schedules become inaccurate, deadlines unreliable. 💬 ***Result: a gap between planning and reality that grows over time.***   ![Supervisor reviewing a static Excel planning sheet while the machining shop floor behind him shows real-time issues, highlighting the gap between Excel planning and actual production reality that JITbase resolves.](https://www.jitbase.com/hs-fs/hubfs/excel-planning-vs-reality.webp.webp?width=800&height=400&name=excel-planning-vs-reality.webp.webp)     ![Deux opérateurs de production collaborant devant une machine CNC, analysant sur une tablette et un écran JITbase l’avancement des jobs et la charge de travail dans un atelier d’usinage moderne](https://www.jitbase.com/hs-fs/hubfs/collaboration-operateurs-planification-usinage.webp.webp?width=1200&height=600&name=collaboration-operateurs-planification-usinage.webp.webp)   ## **The system learns on its own** JITbase continuously observes production and automatically updates your program times. It detects **“good productions”** runs with no setup, first-off, or downtime and uses them to calculate reliable averages. ✅ Automatic analysis of executed CNC programs ✅ Intelligent learning based on real machine data ✅ Detection of stable, validated cycles ✅ Automatic updates of machining times in your system. 💡 ***Always-accurate times, with zero human effort.***   ![Manager analysant un tableau de planification sur un grand écran dans un bureau moderne.](https://www.jitbase.com/hs-fs/hubfs/outil-de-planification-entreprise.webp.webp?width=1200&height=600&name=outil-de-planification-entreprise.webp.webp)   ## **How it works** 1️⃣ JITbase collects machine data (program starts, M-codes, cycle completions) 2️⃣ The system identifies complete, stable production cycles 3️⃣ Average machining times are automatically recalculated 4️⃣ Updated times are stored or synchronized with your ERP/MRP. **No spreadsheets, no manual tracking, just continuous learning.** ![Tableau Kanban affichant la gestion des tâches dans un logiciel de planification JITbase.](https://www.jitbase.com/hs-fs/hubfs/gestion-taches-logiciel-de-planification.webp.webp?width=800&height=400&name=gestion-taches-logiciel-de-planification.webp.webp) ## **Why it matters?** Program times are the foundation of planning, if they’re wrong, everything else is too. With JITbase: ✅ Your cycle times always reflect real performance ✅ Planning becomes faster and more accurate ✅ You eliminate manual data maintenance forever 💬***Your system gets smarter with every production run.*** ![Superviseur analysant un tableau de bord TRS JITbase en temps réel, montrant la disponibilité, la performance, la qualité et l’état des machines CNC dans un atelier industriel.](https://www.jitbase.com/hs-fs/hubfs/dashboard-trs-jitbase-supervision-temps-reel-usinage.webp.webp?width=1200&height=600&name=dashboard-trs-jitbase-supervision-temps-reel-usinage.webp.webp) ## **Testimonial** > “We used to adjust times manually after every job. > Now JITbase learns automatically, our planning accuracy has never been higher.” > — ***Process Engineer, Aerospace Shop*** > > > > ***[![Access to Case Studies](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/2691701/interactive-173442241150.png)](https://www.jitbase.com/hs/cta/wi/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLIQY8IFg14I6fCKeEVyLocqSe2zV7%2FRlH6ZZ%2F4jO1MDBpk2x%2FGmfKkyygGGDxmGGaeI6oH%2Bb3UvsiVVNyToXS93WrzgiVp57nUmXFzvEFRNfCbT1zrp8wScYXBii8NHQI6CaU%2BvOHF7u%2BxsGZP4NwRqKhusp0cSXyU6sHm640OIBEVk&webInteractiveContentId=173442241150&portalId=2691701)*** ![Two production managers discussing planning and scheduling in a modern manufacturing workshop, seated at a table with technical documents and blueprints.](https://www.jitbase.com/hs-fs/hubfs/managers%20doing%20planning%20-%20webp.webp?width=1200&height=600&name=managers%20doing%20planning%20-%20webp.webp) ## **Pro Tip** > ✅ The more you produce, the smarter your system becomes. Machine data is your most reliable teacher — JITbase turns it into continuous improvement. ## **Try Automatic Program Time Learning** Stop guessing your cycle times — let your machines tell you. Improve accuracy, reliability, and confidence in your planning in just weeks.
