Live Workstation Status
Color-Coded Real Time
Each station's color reflects its current state: running (green), setup (blue), blocked (red), down (red striped), starved (orange), idle (gray). Updates in real time as production happens.
Plant Floor & Workstations
Visual Plant Floor Map with Live Status and Drillable Workstation Visibility
See Your Plant Floor — At Any Level, In Real Time
Synesis MES Plant Floor gives plant managers and supervisors a live visual map of every workstation in the plant. Each station's color reflects its current state — running, setup, blocked, down, starved, idle. KPI strip at the top shows aggregate counts. Click any station to see the active work order, the operator, the cycle time, and the next work order in queue. Switch to Flow View to see how parts move through the layout for a specific work order.
The plant floor map is a Layout Editor canvas. Drag, resize, and label workstations to match your actual factory floor. Areas group stations into meaningful zones — Receiving, Subassembly, Assembly, Packaging, Shipping. The map updates in real time as work orders progress, so you see the plant breathe.
Plant Floor Capabilities
KPI Strip
Aggregate Plant View
Top-of-screen KPI strip shows running count, setup count, blocked count, down count, starved count, idle count, total stations, and output today.
Layout Editor
Drag & Drop Plant Map
Visually arrange stations to match your actual factory floor. Drag, resize, label. Group into areas. Layout changes preserve historical data.
Live View vs. Flow View
Two Visualization Modes
Live View shows current station status. Flow View shows how parts move through the layout for a specific work order — visualizing routing as a flow over the plant.
Click-Through Detail
Drill to Operations
Click any station to see the active work order, operator, cycle time, and next work order in queue. Drill into the operation, the routing, and the BOM.
Area Grouping
Receiving to Shipping
Group stations into meaningful production areas: Receiving, Subassembly, Assembly, Packaging, Shipping. Roll up KPIs by area.
Production Flow Overlay
Per-Part-Number View
Select a part number to overlay its routing flow on the plant map. Bottlenecks, transfer distances, and inefficiencies become visually obvious.
Mobile-Responsive
Tablets & Phones
The plant floor map renders on tablets, large displays, and phones. Plant managers see the floor from their office or from a wall monitor.
Plant Floor Visibility — Real Outcomes
Faster Response
Supervisors see a station go red the moment it goes down — they're walking to it before the operator finishes calling for help.
Better Layout Decisions
Flow View visualizes routing inefficiencies on the actual plant layout. Identify transfer waste, bottlenecks, and rebalance opportunities.
Aggregate KPIs
Total running stations, total down, output today — at a glance, on every screen, all the time.
Drill-Through Always
Click any station to see what's happening right now — work order, operator, cycle time, next in queue.
