Oseon Production Control Software – Innovations

The order utilization of each workstation is displayed on a daily basis. All relevant production workstations available at a glance. 

The new storage operating dialog provides a comprehensive overview of all containers and stocks at a single storage location. The operator can perform the following actions from this view: adding goods receipt, stock or containers, transferring stock, emptying stock and requesting or storing back-up pallets in automated storage locations.

The "Guided Tour" for the new storage operating dialog, "Single storage location", takes you through the functions of the new storage operating dialog step-by-step.

More stock information such as supplier, external delivery note no. and manufacturing order designation are now available in different views.

"Simple docks" without sensors can be integrated into the Oseon transport control system and taken into account as a starting or target locations for the automatic creation of transport orders. The transport orders can be carried out both automatically and manually using the Oseon Logistics Web App.

Automated storage locations can have several storage stations for the provision of material.

The machine operator wants to request the required material from a linked Stopa storage facility to the station he is currently working at, or in order to process his order. 

Target values for individual machines are now also displayed in the pie chart of operating states. Deviations can be identified at a glance and appropriate measures derived.

High circulating stocks often lead to increased part search times and tie up capital. The trend development of work in progress at workstations also allows different categories such as the proportion of delayed press operations or rush orders to be evaluated.

In order to take targeted measures, circulating stock is divided into categories. For example, rush orders and late orders are shown separately so that direct countermeasures can be taken.

The circulating stock is the quantity of orders released at a workstation in hours. This is divided into urgent orders, delayed orders, orders for today and orders for the future.

For production orders, the process times at workstations and idle times are displayed graphically. This allows the causes of delays to be identified in the event of deviations.

In the workstation utilization view, you can see how long an order waits on average at a workstation before it is processed further.

It is possible to store different buffer times for different press operations. This allows individual work situations to be mapped and planning quality to be increased.

If materials, external supplier parts or tools are required for a press operation that are not yet available, an earliest start date can be defined.

The use of just-in-time scheduling ensures low inventory levels and high production efficiency. If individual orders are to be completed as quickly as possible and buffers for unforeseen events are to be taken into account, these can still be loaded as ASAP scheduling. So you can benefit from both.

A change of workstation gives more flexibility in processing. The corresponding part separation is taken into account. If the parts are separated directly at the machine, they are scheduled directly after the cutting process without any waiting time.

It is possible to add inspection characteristics to the order that the production employee should measure after defined inspection cycles. The digitization of a further process step means that paper testing logs are no longer necessary. At the same time, digitization ensures greater process reliability compared to paper. The operator receives “reminders” and mandatory specifications from the system.

Batch mode automatically selects valid commissioning packages and processes them in the order in which they were created. This means that no employee is needed to start the next commissioning package.

Visual overview of the chronological development of circulating stock at workstations. This new transparency ensures that optimization options for the order processing sequence during production can be recognized and implemented.

Transport orders for raw materials are also created independently for workstations that are not connected to automatic stores. These are then specifically executed by logistic service providers.

Stock levels, containers, and locations that are included in transport orders are marked in the store management web interface.

The utilization overview ensures the efficient use of existing resources. Analyzing planning data also ensures the transparency of your data quality and helps to resolve planning conflicts.

What was the planned processing time and what was the actual processing time at a workstation? Gain transparency with analyses.

With the new Oseon version, the programming software (Programming Tube) and required logistic activities are integrated in the Oseon workflow.
The machine operators also benefit from a web app that has been specifically developed for the technology.

Production staff can now use a web app in Oseon to directly document quality attributes (e.g. measured angles when bending) based on defined test cycles.

An integrated wizard ensures shorter start-up times and a smooth introduction to Oseon. The new Oseon version includes web apps for production staff, if required.

With Oseon Production Planning, production orders can be scheduled both in advance and retroactively, thereby enabling low-inventory and on-time production. Improved user interfaces facilitate the scheduling of individual production orders. 

Analyses can now be customized on a dashboard. The ability to create multiple dashboards makes shop floor management even more efficient.  

What was the planned processing time and what was the actual processing time at a workstation? Gain transparency with analyses.

TruLaser and TruBend machine operators are not the only ones who can benefit from Oseon. Oseon expands support along the technology chain with the web-based app for TruLaser Tube machine operators.

The "Automatic Provision Mode for Empty System Pallets" enables the multiple provision of empty pallets of the same type at a specific storage station in an automatic large store.

The stock placement list facilitates easy and process-reliable recording and transfer (physical and in terms of inventory) of purchased raw sheets to an automated store.

External hardware scanners can now be used in addition to tablet cameras to quickly scan and record containers and inventories.

The recording the visualization of non-productive times ensures a greater level of transparency in your production process and further improves your digital shop floor management system.

Use the Oseon web app to intuitively and easily operate and manage automatic small stores.

Oseon V2.0 also enables you to use the web-based solution to support operators of bending machines, including on a second monitor.

The cloud-based solution makes your order planning process more transparent and enables you to schedule production orders, taking the available production capacities into consideration.

Use the cloud-based solution to specify the available workstation capacities, such as the working times and shifts, etc.

The live status allows you to maintain an overview of all of the workstations and you are informed in the event of any malfunctions.

Your digital shop floor management system is based on comparative analyses of workstations and trends, and the setting of benchmarks.

Manage, control, and operate manual and automatic small and large stores, as required, using the web-based interface from Oseon.

Simplify your material transports – TRUMPF docking stations and automated guided vehicles enable fully automated transport between workstations.

Step-by-step instructions, including work and safety instructions with images, 3D drawings and videos, simplify operation. Processes can be reported and booked directly in the web-based solution.

Oseon supports employees with their specific operations and displays the information that is relevant to them to everyone in the team. The motto: "As much as necessary, as simply as possible."

Oseon coordinates the cooperation between manufacturing orders and material flow on the shop floor. Any bookings relating to the order status, stock levels, or transport processes are thus always synchronized and efficiently coordinated.

Create a group of bending machines (bending pool) as a virtual workstation. This will enable you to see if the required parts and NC programs are available and ensures a sensible distribution of the production orders.

For production employees at manual workstations, in the assembly department for example, Oseon is a specific web-based solution that is tailored to their own tasks.
