Industry Solution
Qera ERP for Metal
Manage metal production on a single platform, from cutting-bending-welding routings and scrap management to sheet-plate tracking and work-order costing. With Qera ERP, build efficient, traceable production.
Sector challenges
Common problems in the Metal sector
Typical bottlenecks that slow down day-to-day operations in this sector.
- When multi-operation routings (cutting, bending, welding, machining) aren't standardized, planning and costing get tangled.
- When scrap and waste aren't tracked, material loss and true cost stay invisible.
- When dimension, quality and batch differences in materials like sheet/plate can't be tracked, stock management becomes hard.
- When planning ignores machine and station capacity, bottlenecks and delays occur.
- In project/order-based production, work-order costs can't be derived clearly.
The Qera approach
How Qera solves it
Solutions set up for the sector's needs, with modules that work together.
Standardize cutting, bending, welding and machining steps with recipe and multi-operation routing definitions.
Manage scrap with disassembly and waste records, and track recycling and true material consumption.
Track sheet and plate stock in detail with batch/quality/dimension attributes.
Schedule against machine-station capacity with Production Planning to reduce bottlenecks.
Combine operation, material and scrap with work-order-based costing to see order/project cost clearly.
Calculate material needs from orders and production plans with MRP, triggering procurement.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Steps such as cutting, bending, welding and machining are defined as routings; each operation's station, time and cost are standardized so planning and cost calculation become consistent.
With disassembly and waste records, scrap arising during production is tracked; recycling and true material consumption are reflected in cost, so losses are plain to see.
With work-order-based costing, operation, material and scrap items are combined; production cost is calculated clearly per order or project.
