What it solves

An automated line loses efficiency when each machine operates as an island. Line Manager brings status, work lists and communications together to coordinate the cutting cycle from one point.

How it works

  1. 01ReceiveLoad jobs and sequence from production planning.
  2. 02CoordinateLoader, CNC, offcuts and peripherals work in sync.
  3. 03SuperviseOperational status and decisions in real time.
  4. 04ReturnTime, consumption and production data flow back to management.

Workflow according to the catalogue

One supervision point for the whole cutting line

Line Manager brings together the plan prepared in the office and coordinates the cutting table, loader, sorting and modules such as Re-OPT, Defect-OPT and TV-Way. It can also handle rush jobs or remakes without losing the batch context.

Connected cutting line

Line Manager, TV-Way, Re-OPT and Defect-OPT work as a single cycle

The catalogue describes these modules as complementary pieces: supervision, display, re-optimisation and preventive defect handling share information with the ERP/MES and with the cutting table's numerical control.
