Challenge

With the industry leading water jet cutting machinery, the client needed an application that would offer a complete view on the splitting process. This included a functionality for optimising the cutting of steel sheets in the best way to reduce waste.

Solution

The proposed solution centers on optimizing the manufacturing process through a complete framework that enhances efficiency, traceability, and data management. A pivotal aspect of the solution involves indicating the movement of data between different components within the manufacturing process. This includes tracking processes like splitting, cutting, and other transformations that occur as materials progress through the production chain. To streamline data integration and enhance user convenience, the solution includes an Excel add-in. This add-in empowers users to seamlessly upload orders and other pertinent information directly into the system. This feature not only expedites the data entry process but also minimizes manual input errors, resulting in improved accuracy and reduced operational delays.
