Atlas. Your line's engineering, in real time
Atlas takes the formulas your team already uses — TAKT, production mix, efficiency — and turns them into a living model that answers in seconds: how many people you need, where the line breaks, and what imbalance costs you.
Raise the demand and watch: every station recolors, bottlenecks appear, TAKT drops. This is how Atlas responds — no calculate button.
The problem it solves
Assembly line balancing almost always lives in spreadsheets: one per line, another per shift, another per scenario. Every demand change forces a manual recalculation — and by the time the Excel is ready, the line has already changed.
Atlas centralizes that knowledge. You load your stations, times, and demand once, and from then on every question — what if demand rises 15%? how many people do I need on Monday? where does the bottleneck appear? — is answered by moving a control, not rebuilding a sheet.

What Atlas does
Your team's own formulas, turned into a digital twin of the line.
From Excel to a digital twin
Import stations, operations, and times from your current spreadsheets and get a navigable model of the line in minutes.
Real-time Yamazumi
The station load chart recalculates instantly with every change in demand, mix, or staffing. Bottlenecks become visible before they happen.
Optimal staffing in one click
Atlas calculates how many people each line configuration needs to meet TAKT, and where to reassign when demand shifts.
A quantified learning curve
Model the effect of new personnel on the line's real capacity, instead of assuming full efficiency from day one.
Side-by-side scenarios
Compare line configurations, shifts, and demand levels in parallel to decide with data, not intuition.
Unproductive time in money
Idle time and imbalance are translated into cost per shift, so you prioritize the improvements that matter most.
Frequently asked questions
What is Atlas?
Atlas is a web application for production line balancing and engineering developed by Fiive Studio. It turns TAKT, production mix, and efficiency calculations into an interactive model that responds in seconds to changes in demand or staffing.
Does it replace my team's spreadsheets?
Atlas starts from the same formulas your team already uses in Excel and centralizes them in a single living model. The goal is not to change your methodology, but to eliminate manual recalculation and version drift between sheets.
How is it implemented?
You load the line's stations, operations, and times — usually from existing spreadsheets — and the model is operational in minutes. Atlas is a web application: no plant-floor installation required.
What kind of operation is it for?
Any assembly line or process with sequential stations where load balancing matters: appliances, automotive, textile, electronics, and manufacturing in general.
What indicators does it provide?
TAKT time per scenario, utilization per station (Yamazumi chart), bottlenecks, required staffing, learning curve impact, and the cost of unproductive time per shift.
How do I schedule a demo?
