4WIRE CAO
The MES system 4WIRE CAO (Cutting Area Optimization) controls, optimizes, and documents production in the cutting shop and downstream automated wire production.
Whether you control 2 or 200 machines, 4WIRE CAO ensures efficiency, quality assurance, documentation, and traceability of your production in the cutting shop. The powerful CAO software solution is flexible, scalable, easy to install, and widely used by many well-known manufacturers. Thanks to its modular structure, this MES system is also advantageous for small and medium-sized companies.

Our 4WIRE CAO Service in detail
- Produced parts, order data, and crimping standards are available to all machines and are automatically transferred to the shop floor. Purchased and produced parts are centrally managed in the master data.
- The 4WIRE CAO lets you configure your machines with graphical tools, specific capabilities, and resources. The interface offers an overview of all orders and current processing states.
- With the inventory numbers of crimp tools and seal applicators, you can decide which tools are appropriate for specific terminals and seals. During setup, every tool will be identified and verified by its inventory number.
- Crimp specifications are crucial process parameters that you establish as standards, valid throughout production. These specifications are transferred to the machines electronically, preventing errors and mistakes.
- For quality assurance, the production process is continuously recorded by evaluating machine feedback. Setting user roles for specific employees minimizes user involvement and reduces human error.
