Watch the PINpoint MES Demo: Real Software, Real Use Cases
If you’re evaluating Manufacturing Execution System (MES) solutions, the best way to understand how they work is by seeing them in action. In this video, we walk through a real demonstration of PINpoint MES—showing how the platform is used on the factory floor to improve quality, enforce standard work, and increase production visibility.
This is not a simulation or concept video. It’s a live demo of actual software configured for discrete manufacturing.
What You’ll Learn in the Demo
This video introduces the core tools within the PINpoint MES platform:
Smart Build – used by engineers to design and manage assembly processes
Smart Screen – the operator interface for guiding work on the line
Big Screen – for plant-wide visual management and escalation
PINpoint Portal – the central tool for monitoring, reporting, and tracking production in real time
These tools work together to support a controlled, data-driven production environment.
Key Use Cases Shown in the Demo
By watching the demo, you’ll see how PINpoint MES supports:
Displaying visual work instructions and documents (PDFs, videos, drawings)
Enforcing correct part selection using barcode scanning and validation
Preventing process errors using “no fault forward” logic and tool control
Logging torque and measurement data for full traceability
Capturing operator inputs and manual confirmations
Managing quality alerts and inspection steps in real time
Flagging defects and assigning “yellow truck” hold conditions
Responding to issues with Andon signaling and escalation
Sending work order and quality results data to ERP systems
The demo also covers operator login levels, training enforcement, and how support staff can override or bypass steps when needed.
Who Should Watch This Demo
The video is intended for:
Manufacturing operations teams evaluating MES software
Process engineers and quality managers seeking better error proofing
IT professionals reviewing ERP integration and system interoperability
Decision-makers who want to see working software—not just marketing claims
