TriCorn Showcases its New Job Management Software at Southern Manufacturing

After a successful Dublin show, TriCorn Systems is bringing its newest manufacturing software for SMEs to the Southern Manufacturing show on 7th and 8th February at Thorpe Park, on stand Q20.

Visitors will be able to see the latest SQL version of TriCorn's Job Processing Software, which starts with an accurate quotation built up from past events formatted in an easy to use template. Throughout the manufacturing process TriCorn keeps control, producing shop floor documentation such as job cards, planning sheets and delivery notes. Tracking on the shop floor is simple, swiping barcodes to record operations and processes. Having up to date information allows managers to use the reporting inside TriCorn to measure the performance of key business drivers, helping them to operate profitably. The software also has a positive impact on quality, recording the material source and the batch numbers to provide full traceability for customers. Stewart Court, Managing Director, SJC Engineering said, "We now have accurate knowledge of stock levels. Additionally, we also know the drawing release of stocked items and the material from which they have been made. This will encourage our customers to place higher value orders spread over longer lead times. We can then pass on the cost savings and allow them to call off the quantities they require to suit their fluctuating production requirements. The TriCorn system gives us far more flexibility."

Also on show will be the TriCorn RTS production planning and scheduling software, and TriCorn's ISO Quality Management System. TriCorn RTS uses a drag and drop interface to reschedule jobs, helping companies to meet the demanding delivery requirements of their customers, while the ISO Quality Management System ensures continued compliance with quality standards such as ISO 9001 with its audit diary. This controls documentation, procedures, calibration, and inspection results to provide a reliable audit trail for finished parts.

Jane Williamson, General Manager for TriCorn Systems said, "The Southern Manufacturing Show gives us an ideal opportunity to showcase our products to local companies and for our customers to see the latest version of the system. Everyone is looking for a competitive edge. Our management software enables companies to achieve this by optimising the productivity of their existing resources."
