Introducing Pivotware, a Plant Wide Process Control Solution


Pivotware Process Control is a comprehensive modular system providing a single station to a plant wide, floor to ceiling, process control solution for assembly operations to Automotive and Aerospace manufacturers.



Rock Hill, SC – Desoutter, one of the world’s leading suppliers of quality test, measurement and assembly solutions has acquired and released a new process control solution, Pivotware.  Pivotware Process Control features a touch screen station, called Infinity, a robust and flexible solution to keep production running smoothly.



Infinity runs on island based architecture, meaning each device operates independently.  Station configuration resides locally and centrally.  The system features centralized storage, and is easy to deploy and fully scalable.  Start with one, or outfit an entire assembly line, a plant can always add more without disrupting production.



Infinity’s modules include production management systems, quality management systems, and visual management systems.  Infinity modules can be used to control your entire assembly line interlocking every infinity station.  Users can send build instructions using the production management module.  Quality issues can be quickly addressed and products can be flagged for rework instructions using the quality management module.  Production status and line flow can be easily monitored using the quality management module.



Manage and monitor line changes and assembly flow and communicate to all devices on the assembly line, regardless of tool brand.  A user-friendly programming interface with drag and drop programming processes will make it easy to implement and use, even for a novice operator.  Interactive, electronic work instructions guide the operator through the process.



Pivotware will provide synergy in advanced process control.  With advanced accuracy and error proofing features, control your entire production line, send manufacturing orders, trace your full processes, and store per product ID for end user traceability.  Standardized processes can be connected between plants on a world-wide level to maintain the same global quality your customers expect.  Pivotware can be a plants common platform to record and analyze all activities on the manufacturing floor.



Pivotware is ideal for the aerospace and automotive manufacturing market including TIERS suppliers for the automotive industry.
