Harmoni’s digital work instructions provide a powerful way to assist machine operators in doing their work most effectively.
Gone are the days of printing work instructions for the wrong part or an old revision. Because Harmoni knows the job the machinist is working on and which machine is being used, you will automatically get the correct work instructions on screen upon approaching the terminal.

How Does Harmoni Revolutionize Work Instructions for Operators and Factories?
Harmoni’s (patent pending) visual work instructions are presented as step-by-step guides with rich content options, including annotated images and videos. Create work instructions that define the entire manufacturing operation. This means less manufacturing knowledge stored in your operators’ memories, fewer errors (and resulting scrap) from using wrong or unclear work instructions, and the ability to use lower-skilled / transferrable operators to run your jobs more efficiently.
Powerful Instructions Made Easy
Our easy work instruction editor allows your team to quickly create work instructions and step-by-step guides for your machine operators to understand any process or standard operating procedures required for the parts they are working on.
Flexible Linking
Link your work instructions to parts, revisions, operations, or machines. Harmoni’s work instructions software will automatically present the operator or other shop floor personnel with the correct instructions.
The Correct Work Instruction…Automatically
The Harmoni terminal knows what you are working on and will automatically pull up the correct work instructions right at the machine — continuous improvement at its best!
Add Clarity With Annotations
Uploaded images within work instructions can be easily annotated and edited with our built-in tools. No special third-party software is required.
