"My father always used to strive for the optimum production solution. This also applies to the software we are using. We have therefore been using A+W software for more than 30 years, and have never looked back. Another important criterion for us is service. At A+W, this is solution-oriented; their experts know their job and communicate excellently with our staff and machinery partners."

Reflex

Delivery reliability through networking and automation

Reflex is a genuine full-range manufacturer who produces any kind of sheet combination and any required processing, from cutting to shipping. This includes glass for interior design: If a sheet needs to have several drill holes, corner cut-outs, bevelled edges, and digital print – all this can be made.

Thanks to the networked production at their own site, Reflex always has the necessary control of quality, delivery times, and shipping – through their own fleet, of course. This applies to unique products as well as for complex glazing orders comprising hundreds of sheets. This is the basis for international business in Europe.

The production environment of Reflex is a highly integrated, networked system of modern machinery and industrial manufacturing equipment, rounded off by the sophisticated A+W production control. Only if the overall system is consistent, the individual elements can reach their peak performance.

The automated production is therefore intelligently linked with technical order entry: CNC processing centres like Forvet Chiara or the Lisec Waterjet are controlled real-time by A+W CAD Designer through high-tech interfaces like CAM-DXF. Since the latest IT modernization in 2016, the machinery of Reflex is equipped with a modern A+W factory data capture system, from cutting to shipping. This way, the processing status of every single sheet is known at any time.

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!
