frames Features
Planning Management
Designed for effective fine-planning, this feature uses algorithms to optimize production schedules against finite capacity. It provides a clear overview of sequence planning and order scheduling. Planners can use tools to adjust the schedule dynamically, reacting to urgent orders instantly. This ensures high adherence to delivery dates.
OEE Monitoring
frames provides powerful performance monitoring by calculating OEE continuously. It tracks downtime effectively, categorizing stops into technical or organizational issues. The module uses Machine Learning (ML) to detect potential errors before they cause unplanned stoppages, triggering automatic alarms to responsible departments to ensure maximum availability.
Shopfloor Management
This module digitizes daily factory floor management, replacing physical boards. It enables shift supervisors to assign orders to specific employees or workstations using a simple drag-and-drop interface. The module fosters transparency by giving operators a clear view of their targets and a channel to report issues directly.
Orders Management
The order tool acts as the digital nervous system for production jobs. frames offers a comprehensive digital order folder that displays all relevant information—drawings and Bill of Materials (BOMs)—in real-time. It utilizes a visual traffic light system to identify bottlenecks immediately, helping users manage deadlines efficiently via web or mobile.
