Tooling & Gauging Control (Back)
This module can be used in either stand-alone format or in conjunction with other 1st Manufacturing modules.
The main features provided by the module are to control the status of all your Tools & Gauges, when they were last calibrated and which are now due for calibration.
Probably the major cost benefit provided over manual and other forms of control is in reducing the number of items requiring calibration by tracking how many days of Shop Floor use they have had, whilst time held within the Tooling & Gauging Department can be treated as not counting towards their service days between calibrations - this can considerably reduce the volume of items requiring calibration.
