Gersfelder Metallwaren GmbH (GMW) has been a long-standing connectavo customer and has stood for innovative manufacturing solutions for assembly and welded components, wire and tube bending parts, and turned parts in the metal industry for over 50 years. In addition to its headquarters in Gersfeld, connectavo is also used at its production site in Romania.
For GMW's numerous ISO certifications, complete documentation and monitoring are essential; connectavo handles this for maintenance.
“For us, digitalization is a great help in implementing our ISO certifications. With connectavo, we always have an overview of the status of our machines and which maintenance tasks are pending. This allows us to track orders at any time and always keep track of ongoing and completed work,” says Alexander Traud, Maintenance Manager.
connectavo enables GMW to submit reports and malfunctions quickly and easily. This ensures that any problems are reported and resolved promptly. As a result, downtime is minimized and products are completed on schedule.
“The scanning function of the mobile app is an advantage that we greatly appreciate. Scanning the QR codes attached to our machines has proven to be an enormous time-saver,” reports Traud.
In addition to saving time in maintenance, connectavo also prevents avoidable machine downtime through its spare parts management system. The software automatically notifies GMW when minimum stock levels are reached, allowing maintenance personnel to place timely reorders. This prevents shortages and ensures smooth production processes at GMW.
