Ansomat Management System vs HEKA

Ansomat Management System is a browser-based platform for creating, approving, and deploying digital work instructions across manufacturing workstations, production lines, and sites. It can be deployed locally or in the cloud and accessed from any device. A central dashboard shows station activity, assistance requests, and operator progress. The system connects fastening tools, vision systems, scanners, printers, 3D sensors, and other smart devices, while tracking calibration dates and renewal intervals for tools that need periodic calibration. Version control, approval workflows, and audit history govern instruction changes, with approved releases pushed immediately or scheduled. Authors arrange text, images, icons, arrows, and sequence indicators in a visual editor and save reusable templates. They can also create augmented-reality instructions from a work-area image. Each produced unit receives a digital record of process parameters, tool results, and quality checks. Role-based permissions and operator profiles support controlled access, skills, qualifications, and preferred languages. The platform integrates with MES, ERP, and other business systems for real-time data exchange.

HEKA is a web-based modular Manufacturing Operating System with MES capabilities for manufacturers. It links standard work, production execution, performance management and continuous improvement in one system. Teams create browser-based work instructions containing photos, tools, parts, specifications and PPE. They can record station work, divide recordings into steps, annotate them and publish controlled instructions. Revisions are versioned, reviewed and approved with a signed audit trail. The same instruction source can publish to operator stations or A4 sheets, supporting paper, hybrid and fully digital operations. HEKA connects approved methods, production bills of materials, work orders and operator instructions. It tracks availability, performance and quality by process, line and shift, relating downtime and defects to work context. Improvement tools include 5S audits, Kaizen actions and follow-up that can move verified improvements into updated standards. Pricing is on request, scoped to the operation and pilot rather than sold per seat.
