Load Manager

Dynamic Production Planning for a Streamlined Workflow

Real Time Load Balancing

Designed for the demands of fabrication, Load Manager software now has “real-time load balancing” to divide the work efficiently for machines and secondary operations, while identifying any sequence dependencies within the timeline. The software can also be used to automatically “Resolve” the current day’s schedule to compensate for disruptions, such as machine down time or “hot” jobs, to ensure job priorities are met.

Workflow at a Glance

Load Manager enables optimum productivity through proactive machine scheduling and load analysis tools. Workload can be assigned (or reassigned), using drag and drop, to any machine or secondary operation. Programs can be quickly split, extended, stopped, or restarted. When used in conjunction with Color Offload, schedules are updated in real time to accurately reflect shop floor status.

Assign Work for the Whole Shop

Automatically assign work to all workstations including secondary operations such as bending and welding
Quickly view dependencies between each operation appointment
Reschedule all assigned work on demand to compensate for any shop floor disruption
Automatic load balancing between workstations of the same operation

Create Custom Calendar/Shifts

Add all working shifts including hours of the day and days of the week
Add all daily break times
Add all scheduled down times such as holidays and scheduled maintenance globally or on a workstation by workstation basis

Quickly View Capacity

Schedulers can quickly see the scheduled capacity for all operations
Color coding to indicate fully loaded and limited available capacity operations
