Metal Fabrication Software

ERP for metal fabricators. Nesting optimization, material tracking, welding procedures, and job costing for custom fabrication shops.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best ERP for metal fabrication shops?

MonitorZ is ERP software built for metal fabricators with nesting optimization, material tracking by heat lot, welding procedure management, and job costing for custom fabrication shops.

Can MonitorZ handle custom fabrication jobs?

Yes. MonitorZ manages custom and repeat fabrication jobs with configurable BOMs, routing operations, material tracking, and real-time job costing so fabricators know their true costs on every job.

Your Production Line is Tangled — and You Can’t See the Knots

MonitorZ is manufacturing ERP software reinvented around Object Velocity. Untangle your factory floor and build products faster. One real line gained 133% throughput in 120 days — same machines, same crew, sequence untangled.

The Problem: Hidden Sequence Waste

Every factory has capacity it cannot see. Objects wait, cross paths, double back, and starve downstream stations. The constraint is not your machines — it is the tangled sequence between them. No ERP, no spreadsheet, and no whiteboard meeting reveals these invisible knots.

The Fix: Object Velocity

MonitorZ sees every object on your floor in real time — lots, WIP, tools, machines, finished units. It untangles the production sequence by placing each object at the right station, in the right order, at the right time, then pacing the line so nothing waits and nothing crosses its own track.

How It Works

  1. Scan & Connect — OPC UA machine data + smartphone scanning, no rip-and-replace
  2. See the Knots — Real-time object map reveals where sequence tangles form
  3. Untangle — AI-driven sequencing places objects in optimal flow order
  4. Pace the Line — Continuous velocity monitoring keeps throughput climbing
