Where every mould is, and how much life remains.
This module keeps a register of your moulds, dies, rolls and fixtures with location, owner, shots or tonnage run and life remaining. It flags maintenance or replacement when due and tracks tools sent out for repair or held at job workers. It matters because a tool that fails without warning stops the machine and the order with it.

Questions, answered.
How does the shot count get updated?
When production is entered against a machine and mould, the shots are added to that mould's running count. Nobody has to keep a separate log.
Can it handle moulds that belong to our customers?
Yes. Customer-owned moulds are registered with the owner's name and are not shown as your assets. Their usage, maintenance and return are tracked like any other tool.
Does it cover rolls and dies in a steel or packaging plant?
Yes. Mill rolls are tracked by tonnage rolled and each turning, and cutting dies and printing blocks by the box designs they belong to.
Which Kreon products include mould, die and tool management?
Steel Plant ERP, Plastic Manufacturing ERP, Auto Components ERP, Packaging and Corrugation ERP. It can also be added to a custom system.
