  • Report non-conformance during in-process inspections directly from data collection terminals
  • Record inspection results at every manufacturing step directly in an easy-to-use interface
  • Specify user-defined inspection points and attributes
  • Collect all relevant data required for quality and defect analysis
Electronic Dispatch & <br>Work Instructions
Utilize electronic dispatch to provide job schedules, drawings, work instructions, and other relevant documents to machine operators. Automatically re-sequence schedule based on the change in job priority.
Nesting Interfaces
Integrate OmegaCube ERP with Nesting software and track information such as yield optimization, material consumption, scrap generated, etc. Get triggers from the machine at each stage of parts cutting allowing you to get real-time job updates.  
  • Import nesting information from ProNest, SigmaNest, etc.
  • Report layout completions & drops.
  • Capture completions, part weight, labor, and drop information from machine controller through an XML interface.
RFID Integration
Track production and inventory assets with RFID technology. Automate data collection at every manufacturing stage and improve product traceability, material control, asset & material utilization, inventory turnover, shipping efficiency, etc.  
  • Automated shop data collection with minimal employee interference.
  • Best suitable for serialized or lot-controlled environments.
  • RFID printing on Zebra printers.
  • Works with IMPINJ & Think Magic RFID readers.
Machine Data Interface
Get real-time data from machines through integration with various machine-data interface technology. Track machine utilization, and health and determine Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) by constantly monitoring machine data collected via machine controller devices. Monitor various machine health parameters and prevent downtime by fixing potential breakdowns beforehand. Improve shop-floor efficiency, reduce idle/downtime and increase overall production.  
  • Integrate and receive data from machines using Modbus serial or TCP/IP protocols
  • Customizable XML, CSV, Text, or SQL interfaces into machine controllers
  • XML-based interface to receive parts data from Laser machines
Bar Coding
Streamline material handling and inventory movement by integrating bar-code technology with OmegaCube ERP. Use bar-code to track raw material and inventory movement from procurement till delivery, and track movable machine assets, and products post-delivery (for easy traceability and quick recall in case of defects).  
  • Efficient employee shop data collection.
  • 1D and 2D barcode printing and reading.
  • Automated customer-specific shipping labels.
  • Various applications including Kanban & Serialized Inventory.
  • Can use Zebra, Bartender, Wasp, or native software.
Shipping
OmegaCube ERP can be integrated into a two-way interface with UPS, FedEx, USPS, and Starship. Send address and weight information and receive shipping charges, the actual weight, and tracking numbers to streamline shipping and delivery.
Inspection and Calibration data
Integrate and receive inspection and calibration data into ERP. Record non-conformance information using tablets and trigger quality alerts automatically.
Manufacturing Intelligence
Gather and analyze up-to-minute data on inventory, job progress, machine downtimes, quality, etc to gain insights, make decisions and perform actions. Measure efficiencies using various variables like an employee, machine, parts, etc.  
  • Get standard and user-editable reports
  • View complete history with drill-down capability
  • View integrated business intelligence reports
