The Factory Floor

Built for the shop,
not for the boardroom.

Material is your biggest cost and your floor is where it disappears. This is the part of the system that nests the bars, hands the operator a tablet they can use with gloves on, and tells you the yield in a number rather than a feeling.

Cutting & off-cuts

Where the material money is won or lost.

Bar nesting and sheet nesting with parameters that match your workshop: kerf, end trim, a reusable-remainder threshold and a weight per metre. Every plan reports its own yield, so the saving is a figure on a record rather than a claim on a website.

Straight to the machine

Every plan exports in the formats a workshop actually consumes: a saw cutting list, a drawing file for machining centres, and machine code. The buttons sit on the plan itself, above the results.

One photograph of the machine screen running a WindoorERP list closes this loop better than any diagram can.

Planning

A production order that knows where it came from.

It carries the units, the surveys that verified them, the material lines it consumed and every transaction it caused. Merge two when the schedule changes, split one when half the job is urgent, and plan the lot on a timeline.

source surveys, scheduling, per-item lines with the drawing and the area, and a history that records every material and glass movement it caused

The station

Built for someone wearing gloves.

A terminal, not a form. Badge or PIN in, see only the stations you are certified on, act piece by piece, call a manager if something is wrong. Operators can be portal users, so putting a tablet on every station does not mean buying a licence for every station.

Clocking in — PIN on a tablet, then the operator picks the station they are certified on

What the terminal can do

  • Per-piece done and scrap — the unit is the record, not the batch
  • Scan to advance through cut, weld, clean, glaze, hardware, check, pack
  • Quality prompts at the points you configured, blocking what should be blocked
  • Report a problem and call a manager, from the station
  • Print labels to a thermal printer, with a reprint trail
  • Change user in two taps, because stations are shared
  • Actual minutes accrue against the work order — which is what makes the effectiveness figure honest
Traceability

Every piece in the building has a name.

A serial from the moment it is planned, a scan history that says where it is, an inspection state, and a label that ties the physical frame to the record. Three years later a service call can still find it.

Materials

Profiles, glass and hardware
are just stock.

Nothing here is a parallel universe. Every profile bar, glass sheet and fitting is an ordinary stock item with a cost, a location, a valuation and a reordering rule — sitting in the same ledger as everything else the company buys.

  • Reordering rules on the items that stop a line when they run out
  • Lead-time warnings on the long-lead hardware buried in a job
  • Valuation that your accountant can reconcile without a translator
  • Off-cuts that count as stock rather than as scrap
