Up-to-date recipe management software can boost operator efficiency and safety. Our formulation software has been enhanced with new features to optimize manual formulation processes and ensure transparency for allergens and/or hazardous materials.
How You Can Increase Yield in Recipe Weighing
Form+ is a recipe management software that guides operators through the recipe weighing process and reduces the risk of waste or wrong ingredient additions. The software is installed on a robust touchscreen terminal to create a paper-free weighing process for daily formulation work.
Boost operator efficiency
The recently launched update of Form+ offers several highly beneficial new functionalities to boost operator efficiency and safety. The update includes:
- New productivity features for higher process automation including wireless connectivity
- New safety features to prevent accidental cross-contamination
- New routine testing notifications for improved audit-proof documentation
Replace paper-based processes
Form+ eliminates paper-based working procedures, facilitates quality control and speeds up manual processes. All relevant process data is automatically stored and can easily be reviewed or printed with the built-in report function. Excellent traceability and complete batch documentation helps you ensure compliance with:
- Multiple reporting and labeling options for increased batch visibility
- Easy connectivity with external systems via API to import materials, recipes and production orders
- Remote-management options to allowing monitoring of batch processes from anywhere in a facility
Deliver repeatable consistency
Consumers expect consistently high product quality, but humans are variable by nature. Form+ guides operators through the recipe weighing process and supports the creation of workflows to ensure the recipe is performed as defined. This includes:
- Clear operator guidance directly on the touchscreen of the scale terminal
- Defined default steps for the operator to follow with automatic actions replacing manual activities
- Horizontal, vertical or chaotic working mode, including order sharing
Eliminate up to 100 percent of waste
Small errors including losing one's place during repetitive tasks in the formulation process can lead to waste or the loss of a full batch. Form+ allows the creation and control of recipes and workflows defined by the formulation process. It provides tools to reduce the risk of bad batches and waste by offering:
- Batch-size correction in case of accidental operator over-pouring
- Warnings against the selection of wrong or expired materials
- Usage of pre-weighed materials, like bags from a supplier, without weighing them
