Mounting assembly: precision where every element matters

Every detail counts in the modern manufacturing of windows, doors and roller shutters. Even the smallest components, such as handles or hinge covers, influence the quality of the final product and the customer satisfaction. Omitting any of them can lead to delays or additional costs. The Mounting Assembly Module streamlines the control of loading elements that are not installed during production but are essential for shipping. This ensures that all required components reach their destination on time and in the correct quantity. Therefore, our IT solution supports smooth production and on-time delivery.

What challenges do your teams face during each loading process?

  • Is everything included in the shipment? Missing elements intended for on-site assembly can cause logistical issues.
  • How to speed up the product packing process? Manually managing assembly lists consumes time that could be spent on activities with a higher value for the company.
  • What are the consequences of missing some essential elements? Sometimes additional costs must be covered, not only due to the fact of transport but also caused by project delays.

How does the Mounting Assembly Module work in practice?

The module has been designed to support collaboration between project teams, technologists and installers. Its functionality is based on several key pillars:

Intuitive configuration of elements

A one-time database configuration is enough to ensure that every essential element is accounted for in the assembly process. The program will automatically identify which accessories require transport and which need to be assembled during production.

Designing with assembly visualization

At the stage of designing windows in Stolcad® Professional with the Mounting Assembly Module, it is immediately clear which elements are designated for factory assembly and which will be transported separately. This approach eliminates errors right at the start of the process.

Automatic creation of assembly lists

The program identifies elements essential for on-site finishing, such as handles, anchors, extensions, or hinge covers. This gives technologists and installers confidence that everything necessary will reach the customer on time. The generated reports clearly indicate:
  • The quantity of elements to be loaded for transport,
  • The number of constructions and accessories for each customer,
  • The data grouped by recipient to streamline logistics and loading.

Technologist with dynamic decision-making capability

The technologist can make changes to the assembly and packaging of elements even after closing orders. This approach allows for quick adaptation to changing customer needs or order specifics. Just a few clicks are enough to adjust production and transport to new requirements. For example, the technologist may decide to pack window extensions separately for on-site assembly, even if the initial design specified otherwise. Similarly, it is possible to modify the assembly method of other components, such as window beads.

Clear reports of assembly lists

Standard reports available in the Mounting Assembly Module

The module in standard provides two precise reports to support work organization:
  • The print-out for the production: The detailed list of elements not assembled in the factory but required at the assembly site.
  • The "Don’t forget" report: The list of the additional items that need to be packed for transport, ensuring full control over assembly and loading.
These reports are simple in format and clear in content; designed to streamline production and logistics processes.

The extended reporting options through the integration with the Production Planning And Logistics Module

Integration with the Production Planning And Logistics Module enhances reporting capabilities, which is particularly useful for managing a large number of orders:
  • The comprehensive transport report by customers: The precise summary of the constructions designated for transport, grouped by customers. The report includes all the selected customers' orders, even the incomplete ones.
  • The additional transport report by orders: The alternative report presenting equally detailed data but without grouping orders.

What can you expect after implementing the module?

  • Faster production: Enabled by clear lists specifying what needs to be assembled on the production floor.
  • Transports properly prepared: Products should now be packed following the provided assembly list.
  • Increased customer satisfaction: Complete products will now arrive on time.
  • Improved collaboration within teams: The module supports designers, technologists, and installers, facilitating their joint efforts.
