Equipment Management
MPDV Mikrolab GmbH
All-around tool management
Tools and other equipment are the most important resources of the shop floor, apart from machines. The mApp Equipment Management is a tool management software and keeps users informed about the current status of resources. The mApp also allows you to track the history of resources.
The mApp includes functions to edit all resources and to collect data about how resources are used. The mApp also provides overviews on current statuses and evaluations on past data. You can post orders along with the used tools and assign the collected times and cycles. You can also use the mApp to relocate resources and to define automatic notifications for specific events.
Optional functions
