FabVitals FloorTrack
Production recorded at the station, by the person who made it.
A tablet or phone at each station: the operator taps their name, enters a PIN and records what was done — good units, rejects, scrap — in a few seconds, straight into FabVitals MES.
Today
Quantities are written on a paper sheet at the end of the shift and typed in the next day, if at all. Rejects are rounded, the reason is lost, and the office finds out how an order is going when it is already late.
After
Every quantity is recorded once, at source, with who made it, at which station and in which operation. Rejects and scrap come with a reason, and the office sees the progress of each order as it happens.
What changes
Three things that change on the floor.
Made for the line, not the office
Big buttons, plus and minus instead of typing, one screen per order. Four languages and a dark mode, so the same app works for every team and every light on the floor.
Each station knows what it does
The device is paired with its station once, with a code from the backoffice. The operator only sees the orders assigned to them and the operation of that station, with how far the step has gone.
Defects with a reason
Rejected, recovered and scrap pieces are recorded in the same screen as good ones, each with a reason from your own list — the data quality needs, without a separate form.
The product at work
How recording works.
Four kinds of quantity, one screen per order, and a record the ERP can rely on.
Every piece has a destination
The operator picks the kind of quantity, sets how many and, for anything that is not good, the reason from the list of the plant. The step and the order update at once, and the same work shows on the boards of the MES.
Good
Pieces that passed the operation. They move the step forward and count towards the order.
Rejected
Pieces that failed, recorded with the reason. They are kept apart until someone decides whether to recover them or scrap them.
Recovered
Rejected pieces that were reworked and passed. They return to the flow as good, and the history keeps what happened to them.
Scrap
Pieces that cannot be saved, with the reason. They leave the order and count as a loss in quality and in cost.
Into the ERP, automatically or after review
How the quantities reach the ERP is a setting in FabVitals MES, chosen with each client to suit how they close production, and it can be changed later without touching the app on the floor.
Automatic
Each record goes to the ERP as soon as it is made: finished goods, consumption and losses always up to date, without anyone typing them in again.
Manual
Records wait in the MES until a supervisor reviews and releases them — for plants that close quantities by shift or by day before they reach the books.
New screens of the app coming soon.
How it works
First we understand your floor. Then we adapt the solution.
The software is the proof, not the starting point. Every project follows the same three steps, and the first one happens where the work happens.
Requirements on the shop floor
We spend time at the lines and stations: how orders arrive, what is recorded today and where, where information gets lost. You get a written summary of what we found, whatever you decide next.
Adaptation to your process
We configure the solution around how you work — routings, stations, units, the words your people already use — and connect it to the ERP you run. Your process does not bend to fit the software.
Start-up, one area first
We go live on one line or one area, train the people who will use it every day and stay close in the first weeks, when the data shows recording habits before it shows production.
Serves your industry
Built on ISA-95, so it fits how your plant already works.
ISA-95 is the international standard for manufacturing operations. The model underneath is the same for any plant that turns materials into products — the examples below illustrate it, they do not limit it.
Textile and clothing
Each operator at the sewing line records the pieces of their operation, by colour and size, and the defects of the fabric or the seam as they appear.
Footwear
Pairs recorded at cutting, stitching and assembly, with the defects of the leather or the sole kept apart from the good pairs.
Metal, plastics and other processing
Parts recorded at the CNC or the welding cell by the operator on shift, with scrap and rework by reason and the lot followed into the order.
The same holds for processing in general: wherever there are orders, routings, work centres and materials, the model fits.
Start with your process, not with the software.
The first conversation is about how your floor works today, not a product demo. Then we tell you honestly whether this module, another path, or nothing at all is the right answer.
