Ghent, Belgium – 28 January, 2026 – Ansomat, a leading provider of Operator Guidance Technology, announced the launch of its new Ansomat Management System Platform, a centralized solution designed to eliminate complexity in the creation, management, and deployment of digital work instructions across modern manufacturing environments.
As factories adopt an increasing mix of technologies, ranging from fastening tools and vision systems to augmented reality, the challenge of managing work instructions has grown significantly. As the number of tools increases and available time decreases, process engineers struggle to roll out new operator instructions, which are still largely created and deployed manually. Ansomat’s new platform addresses this challenge head-on by providing a single, intuitive hub that brings clarity, speed, and control to instruction creation and shop floor execution. Instructions can be instantly reused across all stations and multiple plant locations, with a single click.
One Central Platform for the Entire Shop Floor
The Ansomat Management System allows manufacturers to create, update, and manage work instructions from one centralized platform, rather than directly on the shop floor. Instructions can be designed remotely, versioned, approved, and deployed with a single click across multiple stations and sites. Its drag-and-drop instruction creation operates in a PowerPoint-like visual environment for intuitive user efficiency. The new platform supports secure browser-based access for remote flexibility alongside local use. This approach dramatically reduces instruction creation time while improving consistency, traceability, and operational agility.
Designed for Scale and Collaboration
The Ansomat Management System is built for enterprise-wide deployment, allowing manufacturers to move beyond a station-by-station approach and scale seamlessly across entire factories or even multiple sites. Its built-in collaboration tools support co-authoring and approval workflows, ensuring alignment across the engineering, quality, and operations teams.
Desk-based instruction roll-out removes downtime dependency and accelerates change. With support for visual and augmented reality–based instructions created directly from a desk, Ansomat enables manufacturers to modernize their guidance strategies.
Real-Time Visibility and Performance Transparency
Beyond instruction creation, the platform delivers real-time visibility into shop floor operations. Manufacturers can connect all operator guidance stations and monitor their status (active, inactive, or facing issues) from anywhere.
The system also provides central recording of all operator actions to deliver full transparency into operator performance with real-time KPI dashboards and centralized reporting. For each product created, a “birth certificate” is provided as proof of quality, as typically required by automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers. This level of transparency enables faster, data-driven decision-making and continuous process optimization.
Ansomat will showcase the new Management System Platform live at Indumation, where visitors are invited to experience a hands-on demo of the solution. The Ansomat team will be available throughout the show to discuss use cases, answer questions, and demonstrate how manufacturers can simplify and modernize their operations.
Meet Ansomat at Indumation on 4-6 February 2026 in Kortrijk Xpo - Booth 473A.
