Xfactory Modules: 

Production Module 

With the production module you can view:

  • Work In Queue
  • Production Status
  • Order Location
  • Throughput
  • Consumption Rates
  • Inventory
  • Equipment
  • Other Items of Interest


Genealogy Module:

With the genealogy module, you can track the history of any product made from a lot of consumables.  It also provides a complet bill of materials describing which consumables were used to make a product, down to the serial number level.

Geanology Explorer offers viewing of reverse genealogy in the following ways:

  • Shows the Sub-WIPs that are consumed by a specific WIP
  • Within reports, shows the constituent steps and step information for each WIP and Sub-WIP.
  • Shows consumable information for consumables with a WIP ID
  • Shows associated WIP xProperties
  • Shows, for each step, equipment usage information (reports only)
  • Supports both SQL Server and Oracle archive databases

KPI Dashboard Module:

The KPI (Key Performance Indicator) Module allows generation of reports of problem areas.  You can create line, pie, and graph charts to see your results.
Some features of the KPI Module include:
  • Historical performance monitoring
  • Data analysis of the product manufacturing process
  • Ability to dynamically capture product data and change on the fly


Data Warehouse Module

Data Integrity is an important aspect of any IT department.  The Data Warehouse Module is used to address that issue.
The Data Warehouse Module is used to:
  • Store Data from the production database to be “warehoused” or stored to an archive database
  • Provide for increased performance by minimizing the size of the production database while archiving important data.
  • Supports both Microsoft SQL 7.0 or later and Oracle 8i databases.


Web Report Module

The Web Report Module allows you to create your own reports or view the standard reports that come pre-installed:
Pre-installed reports include:
  • WIP Details
  • WIP Transfers
  • WIP Consumes
  • Consumable Usage
  • Equipment Usage
  • Inventory Detail
  • Production Rate
  • Consumption Rates
  • Production Yields
  • Production Time

"Xfactory was easy enough for me to perform part of the implementation myself – Xfactory is designed for easy implementation. Because it was important for me to keep production running while I implemented Xfactory, I chose to implement Xfactory in small steps.  Xfactory makes it possible for me to continually improve our system when needed without adversely impacting production.  Voss has to be better than its competition, and Xfactory is helping us keep our competitive edge." 
---Voss Electolux, IT project manager and engineer Claus Sass Hvass
