Case Study: HoffmannGlas boosts flexible, high-tech glass production with A+W Software

Investment in State-of-the-Art Machine Technology

HoffmannGlas, a major glass producer, needed to integrate new, state-of-the-art production machinery and optimize its complex, multi-plant logistics to better serve its demanding project business. The company partnered with long-term vendor A+W Software, utilizing its A+W Enterprise ERP system and A+W Production control software to create a seamless, fully-networked operational foundation.

A+W Software implemented integrated interfaces for the new machinery and provided sophisticated production control software. The solution enabled real-time data exchange across all plants, intelligent production planning, and flexible batch optimization, which maximized machine capacity and reduced downtime. For HoffmannGlas, this resulted in enhanced production flexibility, reinforced capabilities in manufacturing high-specification insulated glass, and the ability to provide reliable, full-service support from consultation to installation for its clients.
