What this solves

What an injection moulding unit deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it

01Today

Polymer price changes are not passed on to OEMs and wholesalers in time. Rejections and OEM debit notes eat profit and nobody sees which mould is worst.

02In MatruOS

MatruOS sets up 10 routines, 2 workflows, 3 registers and 10 licences for an injection moulding unit, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.

03What changes

The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
