One system to manage all processes in the Printing Industry
We invite you to get acquainted with few functionalities that will help you grow and manage production processes in your industry.
Product Information Form (PIF)
-
Tracking various technical information such as structure, print type, print direction, color information, cylinder information of the products to be produced is important, for example to monitor changes made throughout the process up to shipment. This also applies to all cross departmental business processes. With canias4.0 it is possible to track all data with different PIF details for various product groups, monitor their revisions and enable data flow integration across departments.
Printing Management
-
For the production of printed packaging, the necessary cylinders and plates are important components. All these processes can be easily controlled with canias4.0, such as the supply of rotogravure cylinders in the new production phase, post-processing options of the cylinder based on examinations before and after printing result, as well as the milling status. In addition, all information such as pantone, ink sequence, needle angle, photocell opening of the cylinders can be tracked through the system. Thus, the entire history of a cylinder with a known registration number can be traced.
Product Component and Production Time Calculation
-
With canias4.0, the usage amounts of the product components of a product can be calculated according to the density for films, density and solids ratio for liquids such as solvent, ink, glue. Also, the production time of the product can be calculated depending on the information such as machine speed and quantity.
Inventory Tracking and Traceability
-
Raw materials and semi-finished products included in each operation can be tracked from the first operation to the shipping process, as well as the coils of the operation with the batch number. In this way, it is possible to record how many printed, laminated, sliced semi-finished products as well as finished products are in stock at any point in the production process. It is also possible to monitor, which products go through as customer complaints, which processes and which foils are used by which parties, which inks and glues are used.
Roll Management
-
Comprehensive roll management supports print quantity management and provides specific profit/loss analysis. All process parameters at the production machines can be transferred to the system online. Real costs can be recorded and calculated by controlling the stocks of ink materials based on the data from the dispensing systems. In addition, the actual weights of produced coils are recorded with sensitive scales and this information is automatically transferred to the system. It is also possible to count semi-finished products and raw materials using mobile terminals.
Coding
-
canias4.0 supports autonomous coding options: Barcoded raw materials to be entered into the company software, semi-finished products, inner and outer labels of products, and pallet labels according to customer requirements can be easily prepared without the need for a third party.
Cutting and its Combinations
-
canias4.0 simplifies planning processes when slitting unprinted and printed products. Different order widths of jumbo packages or mill rolls can be easily taken into account. For printed products, it is possible to calculate the theoretical quantities according to the order and set the logic during slitting depending on the light barrier width, label the juvenile bobbins with the batch number in the correct order according to the order of exit from the machine, thus ensuring effective traceability.
Vertical Integration with Customers and Suppliers
-
Thanks to canias4.0, it is also possible to control production and finishing processes throughout the company. For example, a cylinder/plate processing supplier can track tools provided via the registration number. In addition, integration with material manufacturers can be done via EDI so that goods can be easily stocked. In the case of a consignment sales agreement with customers, the associated processes can be integrated.
