Stop Chasing Problems.See Them Before They Stop Your Line.
Real-time equipment monitoring, MES integration, and bottleneck visualization that prevents the $50K/hour downtime events before they happen.
The Challenge
What poor visibility actually costs you
Unplanned Downtime Blindsides You
By the time your operator radios in, you've already lost $50K. Traditional systems tell you what happened, not what's about to happen.
Bottlenecks Are Invisible Until It's Too Late
WIP piles up at a constraint you can't see. By the time it's obvious, you've lost half a shift.
Data Lives in 17 Different Systems
Your MES says one thing, your ERP another, your quality system a third. Getting a unified view requires a data analyst and half a day.
WIP Tracking Is Guesswork
Where are those 200 units? Somewhere between machining and assembly. Probably. Your production manager is walking the floor to find out.

Real-World Scenarios
A Day in the Life with Sandhed
Here's what a typical day looks like with Sandhed running.
Catching spindle wear before it stops the line
“Your CNC cluster in Zone 3 is showing spindle vibration 15% above baseline. Sandhed flags it amber. Your maintenance tech is there by 8:15 with the replacement bearing. No line stoppage. The bearing gets swapped by 8:15.”
Spotting a backup 20 minutes early
“Assembly line 4 is backing up. But you already knew that 20 minutes ago because Sandhed showed WIP accumulating on the 3D model. You shifted two operators from line 3 (which was ahead) before anyone noticed. Line 4 stays on pace.”
Pulling a bad batch before it reaches assembly
“Sandhed flagged that CMM station 2 rejected 3 consecutive parts. You trace them to CNC-07, check the parameters, find the worn tool, and pull the affected batch before it reaches assembly. The batch gets pulled before it leaves the building.”
