How can you calculate how your tool stocks will develop when scheduling new orders? Which tools will be particularly strained? How will your stock develop when taking regrinding into account? With the TDM Range Calculator, TDM Systems is offering a transparent planning tool for optimizing stock and order volumes and minimizing downtimes due to missing tools.

Calculate the range of your tool stock in advance

TDM Systems has developed the TDM Range Calculator for all these requirements. It is a new software module for calculating tool requirements for upcoming orders, including on several machines. Positioned between crib management and order management or the purchasing department, the TDM Range Calculator offers brand-new planning scenarios. Being able to calculate how stocks will develop in advance is a fantastic option for long-term planning of tool range in consideration of important criteria.

An overview of the TDM Range Calculator

Calculation of tool requirements of cutting items for upcoming orders that is as realistic as possible
Tool lists stored for every order provide information about tool requirements
Result: A day-by-day plan that is as accurate as possible for stock development and points in time at which tools should ideally be reordered
The TDM Range Calculator provides incredibly efficient support for tool planning and procurement for (large) series producers, with other machining companies and industries also benefiting from this planning tool

Upcoming production orders provide the basis of calculation for the TDM Range Calculator with:
- The number of workpieces to be produced
- The cutting items of the tool assemblies
- The consideration of possible regrinding processes for every tool
- The minimum stock level and order volume stored for every tool
- The tool life quantity – how many workpieces can you produce with one tool
- The number of workpieces that can be produced per working day
- The restocking time for a tool item
