About

Pioneering the PC-less controller for fast, reliable and powerful
CNC operation.

Our mission

MASSO’s mission is to create the highest quality, most reliable CNC controllers on the market, serving everyone from OEMs and large industrial manufacturers to DIY enthusiasts. We pioneered the “PC-less CNC controller” because we saw a need for a stable, fully-integrated controller — one powerful enough to meet the needs of OEMs and industrial users, but without all the headaches caused by PC-based systems.

Our story

The MASSO team of passionate makers and innovators is constantly striving to improve our products and services.

Our commitment to quality and continual improvement — in terms of product and customer care — has driven MASSO’s exponential growth.

After all, the goal to solve a problem and find a better solution was how it all started.

In 2000, our founder and CEO Jatinder Grewal needed a custom printed circuit board (PCB). The small machine he created using parts from old printers could make circuit boards in hours, at a fraction of the usual cost. This became the prototype for MASSO’s first product, which was soon being sold to local PCB manufacturers.

As we expanded our offerings, we became increasingly aware of the challenges facing the CNC industry. Tired of the issues caused by using PCs to control machines — the dependency of the system on a device plagued with crashes, driver issues and updates — we saw a better solution for CNC operation, that didn’t require a PC at all.

In 2006, we released the first generation MASSO controller: a one-of-a-kind CNC controller allowing users to run all machine operations directly, using the controller screen and keyboard, without a PC connection. Since then, we have continually improved and developed our products, making a mark on the world of CNC manufacturing.

MASSO won the Lenovo Choice Award at the University of Sydney’s Incubate program in 2017; was named a finalist by the Export Council of Australia in the 2019 Premier’s NSW Export Awards; and was a winner for Product Design at the 2021 Australian Good Design Awards.

Today, MASSO is an international name in CNC manufacturing, with distributors on four continents and customers in over 60 countries across North America, Europe and the APAC region. We’re grateful to our customers, distributors and partners for making this success possible. And we’re excited for what the future holds.

What the OEMs say

Switching to MASSO has benefited our company and clients greatly. We love using the controller and most importantly appreciate the team along with simplicity and reliability in the design.

Tom Baczynski, CEO, CANCAM

What the OEMs say

We contacted MASSO in 2019 to see if their MASSO controller would be a good fit for our line of table top CNC lathes and mills. Prior to that we were selling our PC-based Linux system. At that time MASSO was selling their G2 board. From the very first contact with MASSO we felt very good about their product and their service. MASSO has worked with us to fill all of our needs. They have done custom software changes so their control would be capable of running our existing motor speed control. They also designed their optical encoder specifically to work with our machines. The optical encoder was designed to fit the limited space constraints of our machine, and it made single point threading affordable and precise. MASSO has worked diligently to find solutions to any and all of our needs and requirements. Their client and customer service has been great. We would highly recommend MASSO to anyone who is looking for a quality control for their CNC machines.
