Prepare changeovers for small batches

Prepares the program changes, settings and checklist for the next batch, so your engineer reviews one complete package before the cell stops.

Problem

Small batches mean many changeovers. Each needs the right program version, fixture, gripper, settings and material, and the details sit in different systems and notebooks. What is missing often shows up after the cell has stopped.

What it does

YP collects what the next batch needs: the approved program version, fixture and gripper, settings from your approved procedures, the material and its location, and the first-part checks. It splits the checklist into what can be done while the cell runs and what waits for the stop. Program changes are drafted and simulated like any new program.

How it works

See exactly how the work gets done.

The work on a changeover starts from the plan. The next batch in the cell’s job list is what starts the run.

YP collects what the next batch needs. The program version, fixture, gripper and settings come from your approved records.

The checklist shows what can be done while the cell runs. Those tasks come first, such as staging the fixture and material, and the rest is listed for the stop.

Program changes are prepared for your engineer. YP drafts any program change and tests it in simulation before the review.

Your engineer reviews and approves the package. Your team then changes over, checks the first part and releases the batch.

The outcome

Your team prepares the changeover while the cell still runs. The engineer reviews one package instead of collecting the pieces.

01
1 package per batch

Program, settings and checklist, ready before the stop

02
Prepared while running

Fixture and material staged before the cell stops

03
Engineer approves

Every program change, before your team changes over

For your numbers

YP prepares each changeover before the cell stops, so less of the shift goes to changeovers and more to production.

How it runs

Designed for enterprise.

Private

Runs on your infrastructure. Drawings, prices, client and claims data never train a model.

Explainable

Not a black box. An AI auditor checks that every task was done as intended and proposes improvements.

Traceable

Every value links to the document, rule or record it came from. Every step is logged. A named person approves anything that leaves the building.

Your systems

Works in your ERP, CargoWise, policy system, GIS and file shares. Nothing is replaced.
