Siskin - Planner
Siskin supports the machine operator. The jobs to be produced are mapped in the planned sequence. Jobs can be exchanged - without time-consuming arrangements. PDA data is generated and returned to your MIS.

Siskin - the front end for your machinery
Many printing plants lack a transparent, distributed planning system; planning there is still analogue or via Excel.
What is needed is a flexible browner-based planning board for all work steps on the machines, but also for external or manual processes. Exactly here comes SiskinOur production frontend for the printing industry comes into play with Siskin. Via Siskin, all planning steps are derived from the job data stored in the Lynx imported from the MIS.
All scheduled jobs can be mapped in Siskin. The operator can add pending jobs to the machine queue at his machine via the front end by drag and drop. In addition, he gets a complete overview of the jobs of his shift and beyond. Prioritisations can be reacted to spontaneously through convenient management functions.


Application examples
- Prioritisation of production orders by production planning
- Clear display of all required information for the machine operator
- Real-time status display of upstream and downstream processes
Features
- Simple user interface that can also be used on tablets
- Order data suitable for the machine and the process
- Job control for assigning recorded performance data to jobs
- Synchronised status and process display on any number of user interfaces
Siskin Benefits
Digitally map the orders to be produced in the planned sequence on your machine.
Reduce walking distances
Thanks to the central overview of the available resources, jobs can be moved flexibly and quickly to other lines. Since the order is removed from the previous line and assigned to the new one in real time, no personal consultation with the machine operators is necessary.
Identify bottlenecks
The length of the worklist and the resulting production and throughput extrapolation makes bottlenecks visible at an early stage. In this way, delays can be avoided.
Intuitive operation through comfortable UI
Siskin's browser-based user interface is optimised for tablets and enables intuitive operation without much training.
Distributed information in real time
With Siskin you keep the (overall) overview: The status of the entire process chain of an order can be viewed at any time via the front end.
