Custom-made CNC Machines
Control systems and machine integration built around your process, your components, and the way you work.
CNC & PLC ControlsElectrical & Motion IntegrationSetup & Operator Training
Your machine. A coordinated system.
From separate components to a working machine
Building a machine for a specific job takes more than choosing a controller and connecting motors. The electrical system, motion hardware, software, sensors, and operator interface all need to work together.
MAXCNC designs control systems and integrates CNC machine components around your requirements. Whether you are developing a new machine, supplying your own mechanical design, or combining equipment from different suppliers, we help define and connect the systems that bring it to life.
Based in Mississauga, we support projects across Toronto, the GTA, and other Ontario locations by arrangement.
One process. Connected components.
Control design, integration, testing, and training.

The controls behind your custom CNC machine
Motors, drives & motion
Integration and configuration of servo or stepper systems, spindle drives, VFDs, homing switches, limits, and position feedback, subject to hardware compatibility.
Machine component integration
Connect sensors, actuators, pneumatic functions, vacuum systems, tool-changing equipment, and other machine functions into a coordinated control sequence.
PLC, HMI & CNC configuration
Machine sequences, HMI screens, alarms, diagnostics, and controller configuration that help operators run the machine and understand its status.
Setup, testing & calibration
Wiring and I/O checks, motion testing, homing, axis calibration, and trial operation against the agreed project requirements.
Operator training & support
Practical training on startup, machine operation, settings, and basic troubleshooting, with documentation and follow-up support agreed as part of the project.
Flexible project scope
Starting with a concept—or parts already on hand?
We can work with your mechanical designer, fabricator, or equipment supplier to define the control and integration work. You can provide the machine structure, selected components, or an existing system that needs a new approach.
Component selection and compatibility are reviewed before integration. The scope can cover the control system alone or a broader package of component integration, commissioning, and training.
Examples of project requirements
- A custom router, cutting machine, or positioning system.
- A new control panel for a customer-built machine.
- Combining a CNC controller, drives, motors, and sensors from different suppliers.
- Adding automated functions or an operator interface.
- Replacing outdated controls on an existing machine.
Electrical inspection, guarding, and applicable safety requirements are reviewed for each project. Any required certification or third-party assessment is scoped separately.
How we work
A clear path from requirements to handover
Review the application
Discuss the process, materials, machine concept, operating requirements, and components available.
Define the solution
Agree on the control approach, component responsibilities, deliverables, and project scope.
Integrate & test
Build and configure the agreed systems, then test the machine functions and motion.
Commission & train
Complete setup, review operation with your team, and agree on the next support steps.
Let’s discuss your project
Tell us what you want your machine to do
Send a description of the application, photos or drawings, working dimensions, controller and motor details, electrical supply, location, and any components you already have. We’ll review the information and discuss a practical scope for the work.
