Controlink Systems LLC was founded in 1998 in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, with a singular passion: solving the real-world challenges faced by machine shops and manufacturing facilities every day. What began as focused CNC/DNC communications software quickly evolved into a comprehensive suite of shop-floor automation, process monitoring, and engineering service solutions. By 2000, the company had joined the NI Partner Network and gained industry-wide recognition when The Timken Company highlighted its innovative DNC software in a published article. Today, Controlink serves customers across the United States—from small precision job shops to world-class manufacturers like 3M, Kodak, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory—all with the same guiding belief: practical, user-friendly tools built by people who know machining make every shop more productive, safer, and more competitive.
CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control. In programming, it refers to the coded instructions—typically written in G-code or M-code—that tell a CNC machine tool exactly how to move, at what speed, and with what tooling to produce a finished part. CNC programs control everything from cutting paths to spindle speed and coolant activation, enabling precise, repeatable automated machining.
Our team is ready to help you find the right solution for your shop's specific needs.
