Station software

ToolsNet 8 is a data collection and process improvement software application for use with Power Focus, Pulsor Focus, PowerMACS and STWrench with support for other controllers over ToolsNet open protocol. Combined, these products provide total control of the assembly process, providing a platform for quality improvements. Historical data, statistics and capability indexes can be accessed at any time via a standard web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer. ToolsNet is the complete assembly process improvement tool.

The production can be followed in realtime through the dashboard or monitored through different reports such as the Result List report or Product List report which provides information of every tightening related to a specified period or product. In the event of warranty recalls, the result database provides access to critical information which can easily minimize the extent of any recall leading to an overnight payback on your investment.

ToolsNet 8 is divided in three different packages to cover different needs.

Take the first step in traceability by collecting all tightening results and storing them in a secure database system. Legal documentation and process improvements can be handled by running several pre-formatted reports specially designed to save user time and effort.

Extend the usage of available information by collecting all production events as they occur on the assembly line, in real time. Generate reports to identify events that are happening often and trigger emails to the right personnel based on event distribution rules you create. Be always on the alert for quality variation and workstations that require preventative or corrective tool maintenance.

The analysis package adds advanced statistical capabilities making it possible to search for variations when it comes to large amounts of production data. Another feature that is added with the analysis package is tool center which makes it possible to track detailed information about the tools that are used in production ensuring that they are serviced and calibrated on time.
