Effective Software Solutions

For effective cable processing, Metzner offers powerful software solutions that have been proved in practice. All our software packages provide comprehensive functionality such as, for example, the supervision and processing of complex parts lists for cables with different lengths and diameters as well as individual printing and marking. 

Local Mode

Software solutions in local mode control the working process of the machine and all its peripheral equipment. All the process parameters are collected via an intuitive, logical and easy-to-operate unit and saved in a database. Tried and tested assistance functions and help menus support the entering of the data. Data collection takes place independently of the processing machine, which can continue its work unaffected.

Integration in bestehende IT-Netzwerke

Many companies control their production via company-internal IT networks. In such cases, Metzner offers full integration into the existing IT network. All production orders are transferred on-line or in their own data structure to the machine control system for processing. In return the machines send back information for production control. The operator thus receives a real-time overview of the current machine condition, the production status and all the completed and remaining processes.

Monitoring and optimisation

As an option, each material can be examined for possible material surface defects before the material are processed in the machine. In the case of a defect, a signal is sent to the machine controller which recalculates and optimises which cut lengths are still possible up to point of the material defect. In this way, material waste is minimised.
