The CNCTalk product was the result. The entire product, both software and hardware was develped in-house, and proved highly successful.

In 1997, FlexTalk ™ was introduced, based on the Linux operating system, to take advantage of Linux's superior multitasking abilities and its stability. The CNCTalk product for Windows was released in June 2004. The Wireless FlexTalk system is soon to be released. The CDS JobTracking system, is the latest and most recent new addtion to the CDS product range. The CDS Jobtracking system, also based on the Linux operating system, tracks the progress of jobs through the workshop/factory.
