Metals and materials work instructions — know-how that outlasts the shift.
In aluminium, steel, casting and materials plants, the method often lives with long-serving operators, and many steps are safety-critical. REWO captures that know-how on video, trains every operator on it and keeps the record of who was trained on what.

The challenge
Why metals and materials plants are hard to standardize
Know-how with veterans
Experienced operators carry the method, and retirements take it with them.
Safety-critical steps
Furnaces, presses and heavy equipment leave no room for guesswork.
Round-the-clock operation
Every shift must run the process the same way.
Maintenance and changeovers
Rare but critical tasks are hard to remember when they come round.
In practice
How metals and materials producers use REWO
Capture the veteran's method
Film an experienced operator once and keep the method when they retire.
Safety procedures on video
Show lockout, handling and protective steps exactly as they must be done.
Signed safety confirmations
Operators confirm safety rules and procedures, with a signature on record.
Recurring safety training
Safety and process courses with certificates that expire on your schedule.
Same method on every shift
See which shifts and teams are trained on the current procedure, and who isn't.
Maintenance guides on demand
Maintenance and changeover steps a scan away, on nights and weekends.
Audits
The record behind your audit
Customer, IATF and ISO audits ask how the process is controlled and how people are trained. REWO gives you the record: the approved instruction at each station, sign-off tied to each revision, and training status for every operator.

From the floor
What we hear from metals and materials producers
The know-how sits with long-serving operators, and safety-critical steps can't depend on who happens to be on shift.
