One CNC Platform Scalable by Design
CNC tailor-made solutions for every customer’s need
OSAIcnc renews its iconic CNC platform by introducing a Real-Time Linux operating system, delivering an even more robust and efficient control system while, above all, being fully prepared to meet and overcome the challenges of cybersecurity.
AIRcontrol is designed in full continuity with OPENcontrol in terms of backward compatibility, enabling immediate and seamless application porting.
The adoption of Linux also lays the foundation for bringing the full power of OSAI CNC technology into the embedded world.
AIRcontrol bases its innovation on key foundamental aspects
- Higher performances on same known hardware
- Higher security
- Higher scalability

High class entry-level CNC
The all-in-one solution
OPENone is the new compact and modular entry-level numerical control developed by OSAIcnc.
A solution that revolutionizes current architectures while maintaining full compatibility with the other products of the AIRcontrol family.
The modular structure of the real-time software has been migrated to the ARM platform with O.S. Linux.
The result is a highly customizable CNC with an exceptional price-performance ratio.
Control Software Solution
OSAIcnc enlarges the horizons of numerical control philosophy by launching a software CNC.
As a full SW abstraction of the numerical control, Chronosoft consists in a complete porting of all AIRcontrol family software, indeed realtime and HMI functionalities are unchanged.
The soft CNC allows to simplify the HW architecture and design, by installing the CN software directly on the computer of the customers.
As a consequence, a cost reduction related to HW is feasible.
- Fully sotware-based CNC
- Ready for installation on IPCs
- Dual-OS architecture for real-time control
- Communication based on EtherCAT
- Reduced components and cabling complexity

The new AIRcontrol Simulator
Based on the same platform of AIRcontrol family is a simulator of an AIR CNC.
AIRsimulator is built on a two-component architecture:
- AIR Virtual Machine — This is a VirtualBox Virtual Machine which hosts the full AIRsimulator runtime. Thanks to the widely used VirtualBox environment, which provides a stable and isolated simulation space for OS guests, running on Windows OS, the AIR Virtual Machine ensures consistent performance and controlled execution as if it were a physical AIR CNC.
- OSAI License Manager — Running directly on Windows, this application measures the effective usage time of the AIR Virtual Machine.
It ensures accurate license tracking and offers clearvisibility into how long the simulator is actively used.
