Welcome to Eryxon MES
The simple, elegant and powerful manufacturing execution system that your people will love to use. Made for metals fabrication.
What It Does
Section titled “What It Does”Eryxon tracks jobs, parts, and tasks through production with a mobile and tablet-first interface. Data comes from your ERP via API.
For Operators
Section titled “For Operators”The interface shows what to work on, grouped by materials and manufacturing stages—organized the way your shop runs, not the way accountants think.
- Visual indicators (colors, images) make tasks instantly recognizable.
- STEP file viewer shows the geometry.
- PDF viewer shows the drawings.
- Start and stop time on tasks.
- Report issues when something’s wrong.
Everything needed, nothing extra.
For Admins
Section titled “For Admins”See who’s working on what in real-time.
- Drag and drop to assign specific work to specific people.
- Review and approve issues.
- Override dates when needed.
- Configure stages, materials, and templates.
Real visibility into shopfloor activity without walking the floor.
Work Organization
Section titled “Work Organization”Work is displayed kanban-style with visual columns per stage. Operators see what’s available and pull work when ready—not pushed by a schedule. Stages represent manufacturing zones (cutting, bending, welding, assembly).
Quick Response Manufacturing (QRM) principles are built in:
- Visual indicators show when too many jobs or parts are in the same stage.
- Limit work in progress per stage to maintain flow.
- Track progress by stage completion, not just individual operation times.
- Manual time entry shows what’s remaining, not just what’s done.
- Real-time updates—changes appear immediately on all screens.
Flexible Data
Section titled “Flexible Data”Jobs, parts, and tasks support custom JSON metadata—machine settings, bend sequences, welding parameters. Define reusable resources like molds, tooling, fixtures, or materials, then link them to work. Operators see what’s required and any custom instructions in the task view.
Users & Roles
Section titled “Users & Roles”Operators
Section titled “Operators”See their work queue, start/stop time tracking, mark tasks complete, view files, and report quality issues.
Admins
Section titled “Admins”Do everything operators can, plus: assign specific work to specific people, manage issues, override dates, and configure stages/materials/templates. Daily drag-and-drop assignment puts the right work with the right people. Because people matter.
Note: Operator accounts can be flagged as machines for autonomous processes.
Real-Time Visibility
Section titled “Real-Time Visibility”Track who’s on-site and what they’re working on in real-time. No guessing, no delays. Changes appear immediately across all screens via WebSocket updates.
Integration-First Architecture
Section titled “Integration-First Architecture”100% API-driven. Your ERP pushes jobs, parts, and tasks via REST API. Eryxon sends completion events back via webhooks. MCP server enables AI/automation integration.
File handling
Section titled “File handling”Request a signed upload URL from the API, upload STEP and PDF files directly to Supabase Storage, then reference the file path when creating jobs or parts. Large files (5-50MB typical) upload directly to storage—no timeouts, no API bottlenecks.
Custom metadata
Section titled “Custom metadata”Include JSON payloads on jobs, parts, and tasks for your specific needs—tooling requirements, mold numbers, machine settings, material specifications, anything your shop needs to track.
ERP Integrations
Section titled “ERP Integrations”Partners like Sheet Metal Connect e.U. build integrations for common ERP systems. Or build your own using our GitHub starter kits with example code and documentation.
Assembly Tracking
Section titled “Assembly Tracking”Parts can have parent-child relationships. Visual grouping shows assemblies with nested components. Non-blocking dependency warnings remind operators when child parts should be complete before starting assembly tasks—but they can override if needed.
Issue Reporting
Section titled “Issue Reporting”Operators create issues (NCRs) from active tasks with description, severity, and optional photos. Simple approval workflow: pending → approved/rejected → closed. Issues are informational—they don’t block work from continuing.
What We Don’t Do (By Design)
Section titled “What We Don’t Do (By Design)”- No financial tracking. We track time spent on work, not costs, prices, or margins.
- No purchasing. Tasks can be marked as external (subcontract work) and status tracked via API, but no PO management or vendor transactions.
- No BOM management. We track what to produce, not item details or inventory. Parts can have parent-child links for assembly visualization, but not multi-level BOMs that do not live in production.
- No scheduling. Dates typically come from your ERP, but admins can manually override. We don’t calculate or optimize schedules—you control them.
- No reports. Real-time stat panels only. No built-in historical analytics—but all data accessible via API/MCP for your own reporting.
Technical Stack
Section titled “Technical Stack”- Frontend: React + TypeScript
- Backend: Supabase (PostgreSQL, Edge Functions, Realtime, Storage)
- Auth: JWT-based with role-based access control
- Files: Supabase Storage with signed URLs
- STEP Viewer: occt-import-js for client-side STEP parsing + Three.js rendering
- Integration: REST API, webhooks, MCP server
