MACHINING SOLUTIONS

Maximize Machine Utilization Across Your Floor

  • Connect to All Your Machines

    Capture data from networked and stranded machines with edge devices, sensors, and operator input

  • Human-Centric Apps

    Automate tedious tasks and provide guidance to optimize operator performance

  • End-to-End Traceability

    Digitize history records and leverage edge connectivity to easily track a product’s genealogy

  • Agile App Editing

    Develop and iterate on solutions quickly with no-code

  • Employees ramping and upskilling

    Delivering training for new operators or upskilling existing operators can take up time and resources with paper documentation and information silos. With media-rich work instructions with Tulip, you can minimize production disruptions with engaging interfaces that error-proof processes. Update Tulip apps to quickly adapt to new equipment and processes as jobs and demand shift.

  • Lack of insights for improvements

    Not having the right data when you need to make important choices can lead to inefficiencies and downtime in your operation, which can lead to losses. Having dashboards and data collected in real time from the shop floor ensures that decisions are backed up with data that can help your team optimize utilization and processes.

  • Inconsistent maintenance

    Managing maintenance schedules and records accurately can become a daunting task. Spreadsheets, whiteboards, and point solutions can become difficult to manage and keep up to date. Managing maintenance and equipping operator with instructions and the ability to report maintenance issues helps teams reduce the burden of maintenance and the risk of missing critical tasks.
