Retrocausal
Empower your operators, engineers, and managers to dramatically boost the quality and productivity of your manual processes. Create digital mistake-proofing mechanisms for a variety of assembly and packing processes. Assembly Copilot tracks individual steps of an assembly process and offers audible and visual alerts to help associates avoid mistakes. Copilot also provides native support for Signal Towers and Projectors to reinforce its alerts. Assembly Copilot measures cycle times, step-level statistics, variations, and non-value-added activities. This highlights process variability and helps industrial and lean engineers balance lines. Copilot helps manufacturers extract more productivity out of their processes. Assembly Copilot extends the typical notion of Total Quality Management (TQM) beyond the traceability of parts, to every assembly step.

Graphical Documentation (GDOC)
Optel’s Graphical Documentation (GDOC) provides paperless graphical work instructions for box-build, circuit assembly, rework and for QA inspection. GDOC allows assembly instructions and multimedia content to be assigned to assemblies either at the component level or at the assembly level. Multimedia content including text, pictures, video, documents and links GDOC includes a graphical editor for engineers and a viewer for operations with work instructions centrally stored in the Optel database. Hierarchical supports hierarchical BOM and creating work instructions for product assemblies that may contain multiple circuit assemblies or subassemblies. Comprehensive – GDOC covers the complete process of manual assembly from scheduling and line balancing, to creating specific documents for each operator on the line. Modular – Customers can chose to implement GDOC for single manual station, or to manage and control multiple manual assembly lines.

COSS Manufacturing
The COSS manufacturing ERP software system includes a powerful Bill of Materials processing module. The COSS BOM tracks the commitment and assembly of all raw materials, sub-assemblies and finished goods to handle material requirements planning. The BOM processor can process multiple stages of assembly including infinite sub-components. Manufacturers can determine 100% of their material requirements through the COSS BOM, while utilizing unlimited notes. Included in COSSERP’s software management tools is a powerful Bill of Materials processing module. The COSS BOM tracks the commitment and assembly of all raw materials, sub-assemblies and finished goods to handle material requirements planning. Integrated into the COSS Work Order process, the BOM has been designed to account for back orders, scrap, and assembled inventory. Features such as multiple units of measure, and full comprehensive reporting give users flexibility and comprehensive tracking.

Simcenter Simsolid
Simcenter Simsolid is a Siemens simulation and structural analysis tool that helps designers and engineers analyze fully featured CAD assemblies without geometry simplification or meshing. By removing two of the most time-consuming steps in traditional FEA, it allows teams to validate structural performance much faster. The software can handle large and complex assemblies, including models with rough contact surfaces, gaps, or overlapping geometry. Simcenter Simsolid delivers accurate results in seconds to minutes on a standard PC, making it useful for rapid design comparison and simulation-driven development. It supports a wide range of analysis types, including linear and nonlinear statics, thermal analysis, modal analysis, fatigue analysis, dynamic simulations, buckling, composites, and random response. With CAD interoperability, advanced connections, materials, boundary conditions, and visualization tools, Simcenter Simsolid helps teams bring better products to market faster.
