Center Lining: Optimize the OEE of Your Production Lines with Picomto

The Benefits of Combining Picomto with Center Lining

In an industrial environment where precision and standardization are strategic imperatives, center lining is being reinvented by integrating best practices from various methods. Rather than limiting itself to traditional approaches, this methodology identifies and synthesizes the most effective operating modes to develop precise instructions tailored to each task. By combining this rigorous framework with innovative digital tools like Picomto, which draws from the excellence of multiple practices, companies gain a powerful lever to reduce variability, optimize product quality, and strengthen their competitiveness.

Key Picomto Features for Center Lining

Picomto simplifies the creation and distribution of digital, interactive work instructions accessible in real-time. Through this digitalization, operators follow a standardized protocol created from “Best Practices” on always up-to-date documents, ensuring uniform application of parameters at each production stage.
Clear visual aids and digital checklists available on mobile devices, such as tablets, help operators avoid common errors. This multimedia approach improves process reliability and reduces practice variability among different operators.
Picomto ensures complete traceability of actions performed on the production line through an automated audit trail. This not only simplifies performance monitoring but also compliance with standards such as GxP/FDA, by automatically recording actions and creating real-time reports. This system also facilitates audits and ensures compliance at every production stage.
By centralizing and analyzing operational data, Picomto allows for quick detection of deviations from defined standards and enables real-time adjustments. This responsiveness contributes to continuous productivity improvement and performance optimization.
With video tutorials and interactive modules, Picomto enriches operator training, enabling them to understand and effectively apply procedures. This strengthens team skills while ensuring process mastery in a homogeneous and standardized manner.
