Production where no machine waits

ControlCenter runs window and door production from the incoming order to the finished unit, labeled, on the pallet. Work orders are assigned to workstations and shown on monitors, with no paper.

No competitor offers a system like this. It has been running in manufacturing companies for 15 years.

Four ControlCenter monitors at workstations: work order RN2016, product and cart number; processing slot 1-DE; list of operations; profile and reinforcement cutting lists
Monitors at the workstations: work order, product and cart, processing slot, operations and cutting lists. Each worker sees exactly what they need.

The Big Brother principle

Every machine runs without interruption

The organization of production must be based on every machine operating without interruption. That is how you reach maximum efficiency with the same machines and the same people: no downtime, no waiting and less waste.

What it looks like on the shop floor

Four workstations on the shop floor, each with its own monitor: profile punching, bench assembly, saw cutting and reinforcement cutting
Several workstations work at the same time, each with its own monitor. Nobody waits for the previous step.
  1. No measuring tapes, no hesitation

    Workers don't measure. They follow clear sign markers on monitors synced with the machines.

  2. Just-in-time instructions

    For every element, the worker gets precise instructions exactly when needed: how to handle it, where it goes, how to position it and how to set up the machine.

  3. Asynchronous operations

    Workstations perform different operations on the same product simultaneously, without waiting for the preceding step.

  4. Carts instead of a conveyor

    A specially designed cart-based transport system simulates a continuous assembly line: the line is always loaded and ready to operate.

  5. Minimal waste

    Cutting optimization algorithms are built into the platform, keeping raw material waste to a minimum.

  6. For any equipment

    The configurable platform takes in your factory, machine and technology details and coordinates manual, semi-automatic or automatic production lines.

From order to pallet

  1. OrderFrom in-house sales, from distributors or online.
  2. Work orderThe order becomes a work order without re-typing.
  3. SchedulingControlCenter assigns work orders to workstations and machines.
  4. WorkstationThe monitor shows what, where and how, exactly when it is needed.
