PINpoint MES: 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 webianr, 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.

What You’ll Learn in the Webinar

This webinar 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 joining us on May 28, 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 Register For This Webinar

The webinar 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
