We tailor our argemas MES, ERP and WMS solutions to the needs of your industry.

argemas MES

"Live Monitoring and Performance Management on the Production Line" Collecting live data from furniture production's different stations (cutting, edge banding, drilling, assembly), argemas MES measures operator productivity and machine utilization. Detecting bottlenecks instantly, it keeps the workflow moving without interruption in busy order periods.

  • Station-Based Tracking

    Monitors live which stage every part is at, from cutting to packing.

  • Digital Technical Drawings & Instructions

    Prevents faulty production by projecting the product's assembly or drilling plans onto operator screens.

  • Waste & Part Tracking

    Tracks part waste after cutting optimization, measuring material-usage efficiency.

  • Andon & Assistance Calls

    Sends instant notifications to the relevant units when material runs short or a machine breaks down.

  • Balanced Line Setup & Assignment Optimization

    Balanced lines and continuous flow are the precondition for raising productivity. The assignment-optimization algorithm uses operators' actual efficiency and quality data to calculate which operator should be assigned to which operation, and builds balanced lines automatically.

argemas ERP

"Complex BOMs and Dynamic Capacity Planning" Managing furniture's rich model and fabric combinations, argemas ERP delivers accurate cost analysis with its powerful BOM structure. Connecting the whole process from order to shipment, it plans raw-material needs and workshop capacity in the most efficient way.

  • Dynamic Configuration Management

    Easily manages standard models' different color and size variations from a single center.

  • Costing & Profitability

    Calculates raw-material, labor and energy expenses, reporting true product-level profitability.

  • Shipment & Route Planning

    Groups packages by delivery region and optimizes logistics processes.

argemas WMS

"From Fabric to Panel, Error-Free Stock and Set Shipment" Tracking raw board, accessory and fabric stocks by variant, argemas WMS ends the chaos inside the warehouse. At packing it verifies that products are prepared complete as a set, eliminating shipping errors and raising customer satisfaction.

  • Addressed Stock & Shelf Management

    Addresses thousands of accessory and panel types in the warehouse, eliminating search times.

  • Barcoded Packing & Labeling

    Secures with barcode checks that every part goes into the right package and every package onto the right vehicle.

  • Fabric & Lot Tracking

    Tracks fabric rolls by lot in upholstered products, managing the risk of shade differences.

Frequently Asked Questions

argemas MES collects live data from each of the cutting, edge-banding, drilling and assembly stations. Which stage every part is at is monitored in real time, and the relevant product's digital technical drawing and drilling plan are projected onto operator screens. This prevents faulty part production, detects bottlenecks instantly, and keeps the workflow moving without interruption during busy order periods.
argemas ERP's dynamic configuration management handles the different color, fabric and size variations of furniture's standard models from a single center. Thanks to its powerful BOM structure, the correct raw-material and accessory list is generated automatically for each variant. Raw-material, labor and energy expenses are calculated on a per-variant basis, reporting product profitability.
@rgeWMS verifies with barcode checks that products are prepared complete as a 'set' during packing. Loading every part into the right package and every package onto the right vehicle is recorded in the system. With addressed stock management, thousands of accessory and panel types are found instantly inside the warehouse. Customer complaints and returns caused by incomplete sets drop to zero.
@rgeWMS tracks the fabric rolls used in upholstered furniture by lot. Fabrics to be used within the same order are allocated from the same lot. The risk of shade differences arising from different batches is blocked by the system. Thanks to fabric length and location tracking, waste rates are minimized and set consistency is checked automatically before shipment.
The offcuts left after cutting optimization (waste) are a direct material cost. Waste is measured as the ratio of the area of parts cut from a board to the board area used. To be meaningful, waste has to be classified by cause: is it due to the optimization, a wrong cut, or a damaged board? argemas MES tracks part waste after cutting and measures material-usage efficiency. A waste rate collected without separating causes gives a number, but does not tell which intervention will work.
In furniture a product consists of dozens of parts, and the parts pass through cutting, drilling, edge-banding, assembly and packing stations in different sequences. Order-level tracking is therefore not enough: while an order appears 'in production', a single missing part can block the shipment. argemas MES tracks in real time which stage every part is at, from cutting to packing. The source of a delay is then seen not at the level of the order, but at the level of which part of that order and which station.
