Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide methods, systems, computer programs and the like that provide for mould manufacturing control. Embodiments of the invention employ management communication and integration amongst a plurality of devices or process stations included in a lineal moulding manufacturing process. Once customer orders are received, the orders are analyzed by a manufacturing application server and used to create job instructions for producing the one or more orders. The job instructions are then transmitted to one or more production device(s). The production devices execute the job instructions and report back to the server. The server maintains status information for any jobs being performed and can provide real time information regarding the jobs to any of the production devices.
