TRAVERSE Global v11.1

Tooling

Using the correct tooling is crucial to many machine processes. Set up tooling to define its maintenance, method of use, cost, and so on. The TRAVERSE manufacturing applications do not track tooling use or maintenance, but the tooling you assign for each machine appears on relevant reports and inquires to help you properly set up machinery.
