MULTI SYSTEM INTEGRATION
Fully automated integrated production line
MSI, also referred to as Multi System Integration, opens the door to fully automate your production by connecting machines with cross transports, roller conveyors, product buffers, and material sensors. Production data only needs to be imported once and then MSI automatically distributes the data to all machines integrated in your production system. Manually transporting materials through the production line can be eliminated by creating one integrated production system. You can track and monitor everything in real time by using VACAM, Voortman’s proprietary CNC control software installed on every machine.
THE BRAIN BEHIND YOUR PRODUCTION PROCESS
MSI is the brain behind your production process, creating a path and guiding the material from raw product to finished profile in the most efficient way possible. If there are machines more suited for a certain operation in the production system, MSI may decide to reroute products based on the actual load of the machines (load balancing algorithm). Every operation and motion is accounted for and analysed continually, and VACAM can detect any potential bottlenecking threats ahead of time. To do so, cross transports, buffers, and machines with similar processing capabilities are used in order to prevent bottlenecking due to variables with manually moving material.
