CIRCLE

For 30 years

Clausohm-Software GmbH offers its customers CIRCLE, a reliable, constantly evolving MES system to support production. CIRCLE helps to visualize complex processes across multiple production lines in a transparent manner. Automatically generated reports provide information in the event of process deviations and with production evaluations. Based on the web application, all data on machine status, process and output can be viewed from any location using a standard browser. With the use of mobile devices, CIRCLE offers a permanent, up-to-date and automated source of information.

Our customers value CIRCLE, as evidenced by over 2000 installations in 8 languages (German, English, Dutch, French, Polish, Portuguese, Chinese and Thai) worldwide.

Let us advise you on how CIRCLE can support your production.
Our team accompanies you from the idea to the final integration.

„"Thanks to Circle, machine utilization, i.e. Line Overall Efficiency (LOE), has increased from 73% to 85% in recent years. In the same period, the failure rate has been reduced from 10% to less than 3%. Circle is a well-rounded solution in every respect!“
Manager Factory Engineering Philips Lighting GmbH

„With CIRCLE, we are able to produce complex, high-precision thin-film filters thanks to real-time process control. We have even been able to reduce our failure rate to less than 2%.“
Lumileds

„By using CIRCLE, we were able to almost halve the commissioning time for our complex process machines and systems.“

Control

CIRCLE detects deviations from defined standards during production and displays them clearly during production. Production downtimes caused by faults that are detected too late are minimized. Quality and production output are increased by evaluating the data in real time.

Information

Extensive visualizations such as charts, statistics and graphs are already available in the basic installation. In addition, CIRCLE offers numerous interfaces for seamless integration into the company environment. Evaluations can be exported in real time to other formats such as EXCEL, XML, TXT, HTML or PDF via the CIRCLE Open Interface.

Recording

CIRCLE communicates directly with the machine control system and can process additional data via open interfaces, for example from a measuring and testing laboratory.

Maintenance

By automatically notifying the responsible employees in the event of machine malfunctions, material shortages or if specified limit values are exceeded, machine troubleshooting and maintenance can be significantly improved and personnel can be deployed in a more targeted manner.

Communication

The machine and system status is continuously monitored by CIRCLE. The user is automatically informed when critical conditions occur. With this information, our customers are able to gradually optimize the quality and quantity of production.

Flexibility

The modular structure of CIRCLE can be easily adapted to the company-specific conditions of any production plant. Thanks to its open communication system, it can be expanded almost at will and connected to a large number of existing automation systems. CIRCLE is web-based and platform-independent.

Labeling

Products can be automatically labeled with CIRCLE. The markings, such as stickers or barcodes, make the production process of a product transparent and fully traceable.

Evaluation

By evaluating the production data, the customer has the opportunity to objectively evaluate, assess and influence production. Well-founded forecasts open up new possibilities for planning and quality assurance.
