A new industrial and human revolution
The Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, big data, robotics, predictive maintenance… What if these new technologies weren’t designed to replace humans in the factories of tomorrow, but to put them back at the heart of production processes?
The factory of the future: towards operational excellence
The challenge of Industry 4.0? Demonstrate ever greater agility and flexibility to remain competitive. And this applies to every aspect of the business: from the ritual of animating each team before its shift to the overall management of production, from daily field rounds to the continuous improvement of processes, digital visual management, because it facilitates collaboration and the quest for performance, is at the service of operational excellence.
Lean management + digital = performance
Striving for efficiency and continuous improvement: the principles of lean manufacturing are still the preferred lever for improving operational efficiency in production. With new digital technologies, Industry 4.0 amplifies the effects: greater responsiveness, better communication, more empowered and autonomous teams.
Manage your business as close to the field as possible
Do your teams have targets to reach? By connecting your production monitoring data to visual management screens, you can make the progress of operations permanently visible, facilitate problem solving, and give your teams all the keys they need to make the best decisions in a matter of moments.
Andon and Gemba walk: anticipate, solve, improve!
Thanks to digital technology, your field rounds are immediately followed by action, your new-generation Andon alerts (via remote control, tablet, or smartphone) speed up incident resolution… Industry 4.0 means agile, responsive factories (and teams).
AIC, SQCDP... team rituals that really matter
Digital visual management enables you to design clear team-building wallboards, based on real-time indicators, and thus fully effective action plans. Rely on collaboration and continuous improvement to empower your employees and develop their autonomy.

Industry 4.0: our customers are building the factory of the future today!
Production control: Sabca's connected flowboard
By switching from a paper flowboard to a digital flowboard, Sabca’s Brussels plant has considerably streamlined production tracking for parts destined for the Airbus A350 program. All in record deployment time.
Troubleshooting: digital technology speeds up production at Chantiers de l'Atlantique
From production to procurement, Chantiers de l’Atlantique’s cruise ship cabin assembly unit has gained 15 productivity points in just a few years. Thanks to an andon alert and digital piloting project that has been implemented with great success.
Animation rituals: tailor-made AICs from Metso Outotec
From sales to shipping, machining and assembly: by involving all its teams in the improvement of animation rituals (AIC), Metso Outotec’s Mâcon plant has considerably improved the visibility of information, and thus decision-making.
Customer case
Pingflow and Tiag Industries
Industrie 4.0: they trust us
With Pingflow, our customers use new technologies to modernize their plants, optimize their processes and empower their teams. Here’s what they have to say.
The objective of visual management for ARaymond is to boost exchanges between managers and operators, to be more efficient by avoiding the time lost by managers to print and display, to facilitate the feedback of information by operators: problems, comments, continuous improvement
Groupe Atlantic wish to digitize the SIM (Short Interval Management) of the factory with very clear expectations: a system that simplifies and streamlines the production information and its visual “translation” into clear indicators, centralize and monitor the various action plans for the plant.
The Short Interval Management made digital on the wallboards focus on the current problems, and on the way in which we commit to solving them for continuous improvement and operational excellence
Tiag Industries has reached the milestone of factory 4.0 through the robotization of its extrusion fleet and the digitalization of workstation information.
Installation of wallboards connected to the “infflux” traceability software in logistics warehouses
A paper flowboard, a large synoptic spreadsheet schematizing the production lines, made it possible to follow the progress of each part during production, which each team leader would then “point” during the shift.
The challenge is to meet the information needs of Daher’s “frontline workers”, ie non-computerized people in the field, to disseminate business information in the field by reusing existing screens.
