The winners in metalworking are data- and AI-driven companies.

Do more with the same team with:

  • Real-time insight into order progress, machine loading, capacity, material use, quality measurements, OEE, deviations and all other critical production and process indicators.
  • AI agents — that automate repetitive tasks such as work order processing, quality records, subsequent calculation, reports and job transfers between departments.
  • One data platform that connects all your data, files, machines and systems (ERP, CAD/CAM, MES, Excel) for dashboards and AI automation.

Thank you! Your submission has been received!
Oops! Something went wrong while submitting the form.

Your metalworking company runs on data. Finally, put it to work for you.

Do you recognize this? Machines are running, orders are changed, drawings are adjusted, schedules change daily, and information is distributed in ERP, CAD, CAM, Excel and shop floor forms. Decisions are too often made based on incomplete data, resulting in delays, rework and unnecessary costs.
The Flawless Workflow Data & AI Platform changes that:

  • Connect and structure all data from ERP, CAD/CAM, MES, Excel, SharePoint and machines in one intelligent data platform.
  • Get real-time insight into capacity, machine loading, order progress, failure costs, delivery times, material use and occupancy.
  • Build a solid foundation for AI & automation so that planners, operators, work planners and engineers regain time.

No more fragmented data. No Excel solutions besides the ERP.
Just clarity, speed and better decisions at every step of the production process.

Insights for metal companies

We give you the dashboards and insights you need to really see what's happening in the workplace so you can plan more efficiently, produce smarter and increase margins.

  • See live performance and progress - from order status and machine utilization to delivery times, lead times, failure costs and productivity.
  • Update your KPIs automatically - such as OEE, occupancy rate, waste, material consumption, cutting times, cost calculation vs. actual costing.
  • Making every department work with the same truth - sales, work preparation, engineering, planning and production.
  • Capture data that is currently missing - such as quality measurements, deviations, scrap, machine maintenance and operator notes.
  • Asking questions to your data - “Which orders are at risk?” “Which machines have the lowest OEE?” “Where do most anomalies occur?”
  • Predicting risks with AI - early detection of abnormalities, liver risks, maintenance needs and capacity bottlenecks.

AI for metalworking

In times of staff shortages, every hour counts. AI colleagues take over repetitive tasks and information processing and automate more than 20% of the work.
This amounts to a time saving of around 8 FTEs for every 40 employees.

With our AI Agents, you can:

  • Automate repetitive tasks - Think of work order processing, material updates, subsequent calculation, quality records, reports, status updates and task transfers between departments.
  • Automatically process documents -AI processes, among other things, quotes, order forms, supplier reports, quality forms, service reports, production data, machine logs and internal documentation.
  • Keeping data clean and reliable - Our Data Quality Agent prevents errors by automatically detecting and correcting missing fields, duplicate data, incorrect order information, or inconsistencies in production and planning data.

Always with control and safety:

  • You stay in control - employees can always watch, correct and confirm.
  • Totally safe - automation runs within your own environment, so that privacy and business data remain protected.
