Edgeband Management Set: The edgeband assistant
The edge material and all related information at a glance.
With the edgeband assistant, you keep a complete overview of all information about your edge material and your material stock. You can find the right edgeband quickly and easily at any time, and the search for the material is over.
Benefits
With the edgeband assistant, you always have an overview of the available edgeband material and all the information associated with the edgebands.
First, you create your edgeband material in the office in the materialManager web app – or you import it. Here you manage the complete material centrally for your company. The app always shows you the current stock and where each roll is located.
Now the materialAssist app is used on the tablet at the edgeband rack. It ensures the organization of the edge bands in the rack. The HOMAG CUBE takes care of data transfer – as well as communication between the apps and the label printer and LEDs.
When first stored in the rack, each edge roll receives its individual label. Each label contains the corresponding ID, the edge code and the dimensions of the edge band.
If you want to edge your workpiece, select the correct edge in the app. Here you can also see, among other things, the remaining length of the material you are looking for. The storage location is immediately indicated by illuminated LEDs on the rack.
At the end, you store the edge roll again. The LED lights on the edge rack also help with storage.
The remaining length is updated in the app. You can enter this manually. Alternatively, you can enter the consumption or the remaining diameter of the edge roll. The app then calculates the remaining length automatically.
The process in 3 steps: With the "Edgeband Managemet Set" you optimize your workflow around the work with your edgeband material.
An edgeband rack straight out of a picture book — every edgeband roller has its place…
…And is always to hand!
Edgeband rollers can be stored and retrieved easily and in a clear and time-saving manner thanks to the materialAssist digital assistant.
Features
What does the Edgeband Management Set consist of?
The following components are included in the scope of delivery:- Two apps: materialAssist Edge (edgeband management in the rack) & materialManager (central material management in the company)
- Construction set for the materialRack Edge edgeband rack, available free to download
- HOMAG CUBE (intelligent control box for connecting the rack and the printer to the Internet and the apps)
- Label printer including two rolls of labels
- Installation Guide #BuildYourSolution
- Optional: You can add LED strips to the set as needed. With an LED display on the rack, currently required edge bands can be identified quickly and easily: As soon as an edgeband is stored or retrieved, the LEDs of the corresponding compartment light up.
The workflow in the workshop:
- The first step is work preparation. First, create your edge material and edge data in the materialManager web app – or simply import it. The materialManager application allows you to manage all of the material for your organization in one central location. The app shows you the latest stock levels and the locations of each roll at any given time. In production, you store your edge rolls in the edge rack and store information for it in the materialAssist app on the tablet. You can now easily access all of the necessary information about each edgeband (properties, residual lengths). To aid edgeband identification, you can print the corresponding labels (containing ID, edge code and the dimensions of the edgeband) directly and just as easily.
- If a workpiece now requires edging, simply select the correct edgeband in the app or scan the corresponding code on the order slip. The storage location is immediately indicated by LEDs that light up on the edge rack, allowing you to find the right edge roll for the processing application quickly.
- After you have edged the part, you can update the residual length in the materialAssist app. The data is also updated in materialManager at the same time.
The result: Preparation of the edgebands is perfectly organized, you always have an overview of the residual lengths available and the edge banding machine can be set up more quickly.
