Enabling Realistic Capacity Forecasting with Product Routing

Ever feel like your plant floor is a black box? You know material goes in and finished products come out, but everything in between can be a guessing game.  With CutLogix we’ve developed a solution that creates a digital representation of your plant floor.  This helps companies model their plant floor product flow and use that model in production planning.  

For meat processors, the gap between a theoretical production plan and the reality of the shop floor often comes down to visibility. Product routing in CutLogix closes that gap by providing a visual representation of your plant floor. Rather than relying on static spreadsheets, you can now see the flow of material—from carcass break-out to final packaging—moving through specific work stations. By mapping out every station and the volume of product passing through it,  you gain a clear understanding of how your plant actually functions, allowing you to identify hidden constraints before they become costly backlogs.

This granular visibility is the engine behind realistic capacity forecasting. Because the software understands exactly how much material is flowing through which station and when, it can forecast future throughput with precision. Instead of guessing if your trim line can handle an uptick in volume, Product Routing allows you to simulate "what-if" scenarios based on your plant's actual physical constraints. This ensures that every promise made to a customer is backed by the physical reality of your floor and ensures your capacity forecasts are finally grounded in fact.
