Eclipse the Competition.
Gain complete visibility to power production transformation and smarter manufacturing decisions.
At AMS Controls, we didn’t create our software just for the sake of creating software. Eclipse Pro Production Management Software has a powerful purpose. It was born out of the manufacturing challenges our customers have faced for the last thirty years. Each was solved through Eclipse Pro and the power of data that makes the unknown, known. It’s another way AMS provides you with control beyond the controller.
With the features in Eclipse Pro, you can achieve optimal control of order and part data, scheduling, coil selection, machine setup, and data collection. These are mistake-proofing tools that give you more than just a competitive advantage during the manufacturing process. It makes every operator your best operator. Because if you’re not making mistakes you’re making more money. A lot more.
With Eclipse Pro, everyone and everything is interconnected within your shop: From the machine to the operator to the front office. It’s complete visibility like you’ve never seen before.
Manual uncertainty to Automation surety. What the data showed was a lot of waste through manual processes. Eclipse Pro software delivered the automation efficiencies and shop interconnectivity that reduced paper waste alone by up to $100K per year.
Prevent costly mistakes by first verifying the right coil for the right job. Mistake-proof coil validation capabilities include barcode scanning, exact inventory control, and tracking for product traceability.
Elimination of Order Errors: Eclipse Pro users have seen coil validation drastically reduce costs by eliminating both order reruns and shipping mistakes where the wrong material was delivered, then had to be returned. There’s also tighter inventory control of coils so you now have greater visibility for what can be manufactured in a timely manner.
Process and production flaws you couldn’t see are now clearly visible through data, so downtime is replaced with more uptime. Now your operators become more productive with a reported 30% operator efficiency increase.
Creating Coil change efficiencies: We’ve seen instances where coil changes were taking 10-15 minutes. With data in hand, customers were able to identify efficiencies by staging coils prior to changing them over. This can cut down change times to as little as 3 minutes for a yearly cost savings of up to $100K.
Gain essential data insights into coil usage so more material goes into manufacturing parts and not into the recycling bin. The bottom line: It improves your bottom line.
Going From Wrong to Right: Automation has helped Eclipse Pro users reduce scrap rates to as low as 0% by reclaiming the scrap and then converting this material into soffits. This has allowed customers to go from 3% down to 0.4% total scrap rates. It basically turned material waste into profit.
Replace manual and paper driven processes with automation. Now everything from coil changes/ID logging, order entry, and production changes as well as machine setup are done right the first time. It removes manual processes and human error.
Converting Downtime Into Throughput: The average manual order input time requires 1 hour per 8 hour day with a production output typically at 10,000 ft. per day. Through automation, Eclipse Pro users have seen production increases by 1,500 ft. per day. At a $0.50/ft. gross margin this conservatively would increase profits by 15%, totaling $195,000 additional revenue per year.
We’ve seen and heard it all. And chances are, Eclipse Pro Production Management Software has already solved it. Contact us to learn more.
