DMG MORI Messenger ー Keeping you informed of what is happening in your production.

Metalltechnik Vils generates high productivity using its capacity of over 50 CNC-controlled machines over two normal shifts and one unmanned shift. “We aim to have the machines working around the clock”, explains Thomas Allgaier, part of the family which owns Metalltechnik Vils. For this reason, great importance is attached to the planning and monitoring of production contracts. DMG MORI Messenger is an important tool in this regard. “With this tool we can display the current machine status of the machines clearly for all employees on a large screen.” This is particularly useful in large parts manufacturing, where machine idle time might go unnoticed due to the enormous size of the hall.

In unmanned operations, DMG MORI Messenger uses its strengths to full effect too, as Thomas Allgaier knows: “During unmanned shifts, the relevant employees check the machine activity remotely by smartphone or tablet and are alerted by email in the event of a shutdown.” This allows fast reaction in such cases. DMG MORI Messenger provides another benefit in the form of analysis options. “The software provides information on quantities produced, the reasons for disruptions and the actual machine process durations”, explains Thomas Allgaier. This is enormously helpful in optimising production and calculating quotations.
