ToolManager Features
An effective tool management system has to have sophisticated database functionality, yet it is essential that every aspect of the system is easy to use, or theoretical benefits will never materialize. It has to be flexible enough to cope with a myriad of tooling products, with diverse non-standard product codes from multiple suppliers, yet enable the user to record the tool information, the way they want to record it, with ease and 100% consistency.
ToolManager is a stand alone tool management system, it is also available as a fully integrated module to the ProDocTivity “Paperless Manufacturing” system for complete management and control of your manufacturing environment.
