The edge goes digital
#edgeisdigital

When it comes to edging boards, these days you need a lot of time for storage, administration and setting up the machines: a source of errors that cost time and money.

High time effort for booking the edges into the warehouse
Incorrect stock levels, no overview
The correct programme must be selected on the machine
Only master data comes with the edge, no actual data
Data must be read from the label (time-consuming)
High susceptibility to errors: incorrect edge/edge data, incorrect process specifications
Consumption or residual quantities cannot be recorded
Production data only partially traceable
High manpower costs

But there is an easier way: with the REHAU service for digitalising the edge. The principle behind #edgeisdigital is as simple as it is brilliant: both the master data and the actual data can be provided ‘on tag’, via a cloud or over an IT-gateway.

Automatic incoming goods posting by scanning and data transfer from the label, less manual work
Automatic stock management, inventory and remaining quantity management
Recording of remaining running metres per roll (stock overview)
Transparency/complete traceability at roll level
No mix-ups, no missing materials
Use of the correct machine parameters (actual data thickness, width), no manual calibration
Order, cleanliness and overview
Low capital commitment due to real-time stock levels
"Marriage" of the edgeband roll with the production component (precise identification of which edgeband is installed on which order; immediate identification; traceability and blocking of stocks possible)
Skilled worker bottleneck: more automation, less manpower required
Connection to tapio possible (data availability)
Higher machine availability

Savings potential:
up to 34.2 days per year

For you, this means automation and optimisation throughout the storage and production process – in short: a smart factory!
