All responsibilities concerning scheduling were allocated to a single employee. This meant that one man was responsible for keeping production up and running at all times, for ensuring that the required orders were produced and for ensuring that produced goods were delivered on time. This is a heavy burden for any one man to bear. We really needed help, and we chose ROB-EX as our solution to solving the problems.”
EME Hydraulic: An important step toward digitization
ROB-EX was meant to solve our scheduling challenges, provide us with an overview of all orders and contribute to a calmer working day. Today I will say we can’t do without it. It is so important for our customer relations that we are able to say when we will deliver. We can trust the system and avoid inventing things on the hoof. The constant state of alarm we experienced before has by and large vanished with ROB-EX.
