PressPilot

Finite-capacity scheduling that fills the press

A CP-SAT finite-capacity scheduler — sequences jobs across presses to maximise utilisation, minimise make-ready and hit due dates.

The problem

Scheduling by whiteboard wastes press time on changeovers and still misses due dates.

How it works

From signal to outcome, the PressPilot way

01

Model

Captures every press, plate, ink and finishing constraint.

02

Solve

CP-SAT optimiser sequences jobs to cut make-ready and idle time.

03

Sequence

Groups colour and substrate runs to minimise changeovers.

04

Re-plan

Re-optimises instantly when a rush job or breakdown hits.

Live job

Slot a rush job without breaking the schedule

  1. 1
    Arrive

    A rush job lands due in 18 hours; 6 jobs are already queued on Press 2.

  2. 2
    Model

    Scheduler reads plate, ink-sequence and finishing constraints across 3 presses.

  3. 3
    Solve

    CP-SAT re-sequences to group the same substrate, saving two make-readies.

  4. 4
    Commit

    Publishes a new schedule that fits the rush and still hits the other due dates.

Outcome

The rush ships on time, the press runs two fewer changeovers, nothing else slips.
