„We save time and money, boost our productivity and can allocate the budget specifically to improvements.“
No programming knowledge required – even complex planning tasks are solved quickly and in a structured manner.
„Even complex planning tasks can be tackled quickly and in a structured way, which makes our day-to-day work much easier.“
Off-the-shelf software forces you into rigid processes. With ema, you decide how operations, support and customisation best suit your business.
„The training sessions were practical and delivered by experts; questions were answered promptly and individual requirements were taken into account at all times.“
Then why not give it a go yourself and see the added value!
Plan, simulate and optimise factories and production layouts virtually.
Design work processes ergonomically and evaluate them using a unique, MTM-based human model simulation.
Calculation logic: The average planning effort per project is expressed in working days, with each day comprising 8 hours of working time. The cost of the ema solution is calculated as the number of projects per year × average number of staff per project × average number of planning days per project, divided by 20 working days (one working month), multiplied by the monthly cost of the selected ema package, in line with monthly billing. The assumed reduction in planning time of 50% is based on real-world experience from client projects and serves as the basis for calculating the expected reduction achieved through the use of ema solutions. The calculator relates exclusively to pure planning costs, not to productivity or resource efficiency gains, which could further increase the ROI figure.
Let our experts show you how emaWD and
emaPD: Significantly speed up your planning processes.
"Automatic evaluation in terms of production time and ergonomics allows the workshop team to quickly identify the optimal solutions"
"With the ema Work Designer we are able to plausibilise and secure assembly processes with regard to F-time and ergonomics."
"We can save time and money, build more precise estimations and impact our productivity. It helps us to find the ergonomic bottlenecks and guides us to allocate the budget for improvements."
"The ema Software Suite enables Grammer AG to transparently and accurately detail plan, simulate and pre-optimise workflows as well as manufacturing processes for plants around the world."
"We use ema specifically in the planning and optimisation of production lines in terms of 3D layout process design and worker simulation before investment approval."
We create a better basis for planning, develop a common understanding of the process and equipment in the early phases and utilise the information holistically within the framework of the Industrial Metaverse.

The automatically generated ergonomic assessments are based on Industry standards such as EAWS®, NIOSH® and DIN standards (including DIN EN 1005-4 and DIN EN 14738). Additional functions such as visual analyses, age factors, job requirement profiles and the identification of particularly strenuous work tasks provide support in the targeted optimisation and the optimisation of ergonomic processes. Our time studies are certified in accordance with MTM-UAS® and are generated fully automatically. Together with capacity utilisation analyses, cycle time diagrams, waiting time calculations, value-added proportions and route diagrams, these form the basis for identifying waste, thereby enabling targeted planning and optimisation.
ema supports a A wide range of common File formats in import/export. We are also constantly developing interfaces to other planning and documentation systems (e.g. TiCon for Windows 4, TAKTIQ). Customisations and integrating it into your software environment (e.g. PLM platforms and ERP systems) is part of our day-to-day business. ema complements your existing IT environment, but does not replace it.
