Real-time factory view
Quality, yield, scrap, rework and energy across every cell, live.
Yield & Orchestration
Yieldex
The factory orchestrator — maximize yield, minimize scrap and cure energy.
The factory-level optimization brain: it ingests telemetry from every Curelum module and uses cuOpt to schedule AFP paths, autoclave batches, NDT routing and finishing — optimizing throughput, scrap, cure energy, rework and on-time delivery from one real-time view.

The problem
Why this step condemns parts
Even with every cell automated, plant managers run blind on the whole: real-time porosity, FOD, cure state, scrap, rework, throughput and cure-cycle energy are scattered across machines and shifts. Scheduling AFP cells, autoclave batches, NDT and finishing under material, tool and quality constraints is a combinatorial nightmare done by hand — leaving yield, energy and on-time delivery on the table.

How it works
A closed perceive → decide → act loop
No open-loop hoping. Yieldex senses, reasons against the qualified envelope, acts within bounds, and logs every action.
Ingest the factory
Telemetry from Plyoq, Voidra, Curevo, Strandix and Roboply flows into one real-time model of quality, yield and energy.
Optimize the schedule
cuOpt schedules AFP paths, autoclave batches, NDT routing and trim/drill tasks under material, tool and quality constraints.
Balance the objectives
Throughput, scrap, cure energy, rework and on-time delivery are optimized together, not in silos.
Act & report
Decisions flow back to the cells and up to plant dashboards and executive ROI reporting.
Capabilities
What Yieldex does on the line
cuOpt scheduling
AFP paths, autoclave batches, NDT routing and finishing, optimized.
Energy optimization
Cure-cycle energy minimized through smart batching.
Constraint-aware
Respects material, tool, quality and delivery constraints.
OTD & scrap targets
Drives on-time delivery and scrap reduction to plan.
Executive ROI reporting
Scrap, yield, energy and OTD rolled up for the buyer.
Read the process
Instrumented, not guessed
Every Yieldex readout maps to a real measurement on the floor — tow geometry, cure trajectory, C-scan integrity, or predicted strength. The interface is precision test equipment: numbers you can certify, not a dashboard of vanity charts.
- Grounded, auditable outputs on every action
- Bounded control envelopes from the Strandix twin
- Human-in-the-loop on flight-critical decisions
- Immutable audit trail for AS9100 / NADCAP

FAQ
Questions engineers ask
Does Yieldex need the other products?
It is most powerful with the full loop, but it can start by ingesting your existing MES and cell telemetry and expand as more Curelum modules come online.
What does it optimize first?
Typically autoclave batch scheduling and NDT routing — the biggest energy and throughput levers — then AFP and finishing.
Who uses it?
Plant managers, operations directors and continuous-improvement teams, plus executives for ROI reporting.
