• Material availability simulation

Storage

I/O stations
Material can be input to the storage or taken out from the storage from the i/o stations. Ordering and sending actions create transport orders to crane’s job queue automatically. Each station has also its own job queue, which means that several pallets can be ordered to the queue. When the station is available, the crane brings a new pallet to the station automatically.

Pallet data and item quantity management
Pallet’s properties, the quantity of material on the pallet, unloading pallet’s schemes and information about material type and types can be managed in WinFMS software.

Reporting finished pieces to ERP via ERP connection
