Fast Planning Software puts an Industry 4.0 data layer under the planning engine. Operators book process status with a three-step scan — shift, machine, operator — while IoT devices capture machine run times and process parameters automatically. Pick-to-Light guides the picking. Live machine and job-card status make the floor paperless, and the actuals flow straight into plan-vs-actual, machine loading and OEE — real time, not yesterday's paperwork.
Actuals reach the plan two ways — an operator books process status with a barcode scan, or IoT devices capture run times and parameters off the machine with no one recording numbers. Both post to the same planning record, so plan-vs-actual and OEE run on one live source, not two systems to reconcile.
Process status is booked by a three-step scan and captured by IoT, then fed under the planning engine. Nothing is written on a job card and re-keyed later — the scan is the entry.
Each one is a native part of the planning engine — booked by scan or captured by IoT into the same plan the machine loading and OEE dashboards read, not a separate shop-floor app.
A number written on a job card gets copied wrong and reaches the plan a day late. Instead, the operator books process status by scanning three barcodes — shift, then machine, then operator — and enters OK and Not-OK production, actual start and end timing, cycle and setting time, machine stoppage and operation specifications. It posts shift-, machine- and operator-wise against the order process sheet, so the plan sees the floor as it happens.
Say hello to Industry 4.0: IoT devices on the machines capture the start and end times of operations automatically, and process parameters such as temperature and pressure straight off the equipment. There is no more need to record numbers manually — the data is collected, analyzed and visualized for zero downtime and real-time management, then feeds the same machine loading and utilization that the plan runs on.
This is the truly paperless factory. Process visualization shows live machine status and live job-card status on the floor, and every booking and IoT reading feeds live status and OEE back into the plan. So plan-vs-actual, utilization and efficiency reflect what's running right now, not last night's job cards — the Industry 4.0 situation room that makes data-driven decisions possible.
Book process status by scanning shift, machine and operator barcodes — a three-step scan that posts shift-, machine- and operator-wise.
Good and rejected quantities separated at source, with operation specifications, so rejection analysis runs on booked reality.
Actual start and end timing, cycle and setting time, plus machine stoppage and breakdown captured as downtime and idle time.
IoT devices capture operation start and end times automatically off the machine — no operator recording numbers by hand.
Temperature, pressure and other process parameters captured during operations and visualized for real-time management.
Pick-to-Light for picking accuracy and inventory visibility, plus live machine and job-card status for a paperless floor.
In a 30-minute demo we'll book process status by scanning shift, machine and operator, capture machine times through IoT, and watch live status feed plan-vs-actual and OEE — one plan, no manual numbers.
