Production Terminal
A+W Production Terminal transforms production processes within the glass industry by utilizing robust capabilities and an user-friendly interface. This software solution facilitates interactive process visualization, real-time production data acquisition, and seamless control.
One notable feature the A+W Production Terminal is its ability to visualize pane setups, dimensions and processing steps, and provide employees with a clear overview of ongoing processes that require immediate intervention when necessary. Additionally, each terminal supports the display of CAD drawings and document links, which enhance communication and collaboration throughout production.
The integration of A+W Barcode Manager with the A+W Production Terminal is another key aspect, enabling efficient booking of breakage slices and reasons, along with machine status feedback and automatic scrap handling, which collectively enhances productivity, efficiency and processing quality.

Production
A+W Production is an extremely flexible PPS solution for complete rough and detailed scheduling for insulated glass, tempered glass, and laminated glass production. The system allows planning and control of even the most demanding multi-level production flows.
With the A+W Production system, we manage our complex product mix very flexibly. No more sheets are lost. And there are almost no complaints. We produce much greater quantities in the same amount of time. In addition, cutting has generally become more flexible and yield has increased significantly. The realtime optimization and automatic breakage pool also make a contribution here – poor sheets are remade immediately and can frequently still be delivered with the main order.
The A+W software controls and checks all processes from entry of the order to control of the machines, on through to delivery of the finished products. Thanks to consistent barcode control and the A+W Production Monitors, we always know where each sheet is at any point in time. All commercial and technical data is available company-wide – and this without having employees running around all the time with folders and stacks of paper under their arms in order to determine what they must do with which sheet (…) All employees work productively! The focus is always on information, all the time and everywhere.
