AI-optimized order sequences

Use in practice

Orders that are waiting to be processed on machines can be processed in different ways. The sequence of the orders plays a decisive role in order to process the orders efficiently. Various factors influence the optimum sequence: how much set-up time is required, is the order behind schedule and should the order be processed with priority. The process is usually carried out manually. The effort involved is manageable when the number of orders is low. As order numbers increase, sorting the orders becomes a challenge and can take a lot of time and the optimum is often not identified, which is a major pain point. Our AI solution optimizes the order sequence, taking into account the influencing factors mentioned above. The result is shown to the employee directly at their workstation on a display. The employee processes the orders in the optimized sequence and can thus significantly improve production. The AI application is used at a variety of workstations, e.g. when bending, turning or sawing material.

Advantage(s) and benefits

When manufacturing small batches and customized machines, the quantities are small. This leads to frequent tool changes and retooling processes on the machines, which are associated with long production interruptions. At the same time, tight production capacities often lead to delays in the processing of production orders. This results in rush orders or prioritized orders in order to complete the most important machines quickly. Keeping an eye on all three challenges at the same time is a complex task. With the help of the AI application, all three objectives could be solved simultaneously: Set-up time between orders is minimized, the lateness of orders is reduced and high-priority orders are given priority in production. This allows us to make better use of production capacities, increase delivery reliability and thus better meet customer needs.

Our visions briefly stated

Pay-per-Use & Coil-Management

Callback-Request

Coil-Management

Imagine no longer having to worry about a sufficient stock of strapping material. Our aim is to develop the Internet of Things (IOT) for the management of your consumables. In the future, the MOSCA Coil-Management System will automatically detect when the strapping material in your warehouse is running low. For this purpose, strapping coils will be equipped with an RFID tag. Our machines will read the RFID tag when coils are changed and forward this information to our ERP system via secure cloud connectivity. We then evaluate the strap inventory data. If your strap reserves fall below a predefined number of coils, a new order will be automatically placed. It will save you time and reduce your storage space required for strapping materials. It also ensures that your operations will never be disrupted due to a lack of strapping material at the end of the production line.

Pay-per-Use

MOSCA strapping technology is the right solution for safely and efficiently packaging your products. But what if you don't want to invest in your own strapping machinery? Strapping as a Service could be the ideal future solution for you. This is a Pay-per-Use model where the investment in a new machine is replaced by billing for actual usage. You simply pay for the machine's performance and we handle all maintenance and troubleshooting. We provide the strapping machine free of charge and you transmit your usage data, which is then used to calculate the monthly fee. This gives you 100% cost transparency at all times for the services charged which you can view any time in your customer portal. The Strapping as a Service model eliminates the need for costly one-off investments, benefitting your company's liquidity. At the same time, you are always up to date with the latest technology.

Callback-Request

Even a small error can disrupt your efficient workflow or cause a machine failure. Fast and efficient service then becomes crucial. Our vision for the future is the MOSCA Callback-Request, where we help you resolve faults at an early stage. You submit your service request via the tablet computer assigned to the strapping machine. You simply let us know what is happening with your machine and conveniently transmit all relevant data to our technical service team via secure cloud connectivity, along with your preferred call-back date. Your advantage: When our service specialists call back, they will already have analysed all the data and worked out a solution, which they will start implementing together with you on site.

Mosca's road to the future!
