Built for makers. Designed for the shopfloor.
Tailor-made Manufacturing Execution System and digital twin solutions — from order intake through assembly, quality, and lifelong service. One operational fabric, full traceability, every single device.
From customer order to long-term service — one platform across the lifecycle.
Exolynk Shopfloor connects every step from initial inquiry to long-term service in one integrated platform. No tool silos, no spreadsheet handovers, and no information lost between sales, production, and field service.
From inquiry to order — without re-entering data.
As part of an end-to-end workflow, customer and supplier data connects directly to your orders. Every new order arrives with the complete history attached: past orders, contacts, preferences, contractual quirks. Order entry takes minutes, and delivery notes and shipping documents generate from the same record. No copy-paste between systems, no version drift between sales and operations.
- Customer & supplier data connected to orders
- Full order history per customer
- Auto-generated delivery notes & shipping docs
- Direct hand-off to production work orders
MES guidance, driven by the BOM you actually shipped.
During assembly, the MES walks operators through every defined step, with the right Bill of Materials version loaded automatically from the PLM. New engineering revisions reach the shopfloor without bottlenecks — and every adjustment to components or processes stays traceable, down to the device and the day. No more “which BOM did we use on that one?” conversations.
- Versioned Bills of Materials
- Step-by-step assembly guidance
- Tracable change history per revision
- In-line defect & quality capture
Every device a digital twin. Every twin, a complete history.
At the moment of completion each machine receives a unique serial number and a digital twin that travels with it for life. The twin records every production step, every test, every defect raised and resolved — and stays connected to the customer it ships to. Two years later, a service request resolves to the exact unit in seconds, not hours of paperwork archaeology.
- Unique serial number per device
- Full production history per unit
- Spare-part lookup by serial
- Lifetime service record per device
Quality, traceability, and the day after launch.
Going live is just day one. Exolynk Shopfloor covers what comes next — quality processes, lifecycle service, document control, and a recall workflow that takes minutes, not weeks.
Defect to root cause — captured where it happens.
When something goes wrong on the line, an operator opens an 8D report on the same tablet they were using to assemble. Ishikawa diagrams and AI-assisted pattern detection help surface the actual cause — not just the most recent symptom. Corrective actions link back to the affected BOM versions and supplier records, and follow-through stays visible until it's resolved.
- 8D reports linked to BOM versions
- Ishikawa root-cause analysis
- AI-assisted defect pattern detection
- Corrective action tracking end-to-end
Service that knows the machine it's servicing.
A customer calls about a worn cutting blade two years after delivery. The serial number resolves to the exact unit, its complete production history, every spare part installed, every previous service event. Warranty cases, repair orders, and field service notes all live on the same record — so service teams know what they're walking into before they arrive.
- Warranty case tracking
- Spare-part order workflows
- Service history per device & customer
- Field service notes & photos
Recall-ready, by design.
Versioned BOMs make it precise: which batches, which serial ranges, which suppliers were affected by a defect or directive. The integrated Document Management System keeps CAD drawings, assembly instructions, and inspection reports versioned alongside the BOM. When a recall is needed, the affected-device list takes seconds — not the days of spreadsheet detective work most SMEs face.
- Versioned BOMs & CAD revision control
- Document management with audit trail
- Recall workflow with affected-batch identification
- Inspection report archives
Every field, every operator — in their own language.
Engineering writes BOMs and quality reports in German. The production team in Southeast Asia reads them in English. Operators in Vietnam capture observations in Vietnamese; engineering sees them translated back to German automatically. AI-powered real-time translation runs at the field level, so the same record stays consistent across languages without spreadsheet shuttles or external translation steps.
- Field-level translation in 100+ languages
- Native-language UI per user
- Bidirectional auto-translation
- No external translation tools required
Roles, sites, and dashboards — tuned to who needs what.
Sales sees the pipeline. Operators see today's work orders. QA sees pending non-conformances. Management sees OEE, throughput, and quality trends across sites. Multi-tenant by design — run several sites, branches, or subsidiaries on one platform with clean data separation, while sharing the registries (materials, machines, languages) that make sense centrally.
- Multi-tenant for sites & branches
- Role-based dashboards & rights
- Field-level permissions
- Multilingual UI per user
Your data stays where your IP lives.
Production data — BOMs, CAD revisions, defect histories, customer records — sit in certified Swiss data centres with georedundant infrastructure and daily encrypted backups. GDPR- and revDSG-compliant by design. Full export at any time in standard formats. No foreign cloud, no hidden dependencies, no vendor lock-in on the data that defines your products.
- Swiss-only hosting with georedundancy
- Daily automated backups
- revDSG & GDPR by design
- Always exportable — no vendor lock-in
More than an MES — a full shopfloor operations toolkit.
Beyond the lifecycle workflow, Exolynk Shopfloor ships with the small, opinionated tools that make daily production work — built on the Exolynk platform and shaped by the manufacturers that run it every shift.
Bill of Process (BOP) editor
Define the assembly process step-by-step alongside the BOM. Operators see exactly what to do, what tools to use, what to check — version-controlled and revision-aware.
Barcode & QR scanning at every station
Scan parts, work orders, or finished devices on any tablet or smartphone. Pull up the right BOM, the right work order, the right service history — without typing serial numbers by hand.
Live shopfloor KPIs
Real-time OEE, throughput, defect rate, and station utilisation — per shift, per line, per BOM revision. The numbers the morning huddle actually needs.
Maintenance schedules
Track preventive maintenance per machine and tool, with reminders and history. Surfaces the 14-month-overdue service interval before it becomes a quality incident on the line.
ERP & accounting integration
REST API and webhooks connect Exolynk Shopfloor to your existing ERP, accounting, and inventory tools. Order, material, and invoice data sync in real time — no nightly batch jobs.
Tablet-friendly shopfloor app
The same platform on the assembly station as on the engineer’s desk. Touch-optimised forms, photo capture, voice notes, full offline tolerance for spotty industrial Wi-Fi.
Inventory & stock counts
Material registries with min/max thresholds, lot tracking, and supplier-side traceability. Trigger automatic reorder workflows when stock drops below the threshold for a given BOM.
Production analytics
Trends per shift, station, BOM revision, supplier. Defect-rate Pareto charts surface where to focus engineering attention — backed by the actual production data, not gut feel.
AI defect-pattern detection
The AI reads your defect history and production data to surface recurring patterns — a 3× defect rate on station 4 since the last supplier change, for example — before a customer notices.
