Millions of parts, one heat number
Lot numbers carry the heat from rod coil to finished pack.
Cut, heat and thread
Fasteners ERP software
Streamline fastener manufacturing across cutting, heating and threading. Improve efficiency, quality and cost management.
Quick answer
What is fastener manufacturing ERP?
Fastener manufacturing ERP is software that follows wire rod through drawing, cutting and heading, threading, heat treatment and coating to counted, packed fasteners. Formezy keeps lot and heat traceability across very high piece volumes and turns scale readings into accurate pack counts.
Counting errors at packing
Scale readings flow into packing, supporting count-by-weight.
Vendor coating out of sight
Plating and coating at vendors is tracked as outside processing.
Segments
Built for every fasteners segment
3 segments, each with its own shop-floor process flow.
Bolts & nuts
Hex bolts, studs and nuts cold formed from wire rod, with lot traceability from rod coil to counted pack.
See the 7-step flowScrews
Machine, self-tapping and wood screws in high volumes, with heading, thread rolling and plating tracked lot by lot.
See the 7-step flowHigh-tensile fasteners
Property class 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9 fasteners for critical joints, with hardness, proof-load results and lot certificates.

Questions
Fasteners ERP: common questions
Still have a question?
Talk to a metal ERP specialist about your own plant and process route.
Which fasteners segments does Formezy support?
Formezy supports bolts & nuts, screws and high-tensile fasteners, each with its own process flow. Plants that combine segments run them in one system.
How does Formezy keep lot traceability for fasteners?
Each lot number carries the heat number of its rod coil through heading, threading, heat treatment and coating to the finished pack.
Can fasteners be counted by weight?
Weight integration brings scale readings into packing, which supports count-by-weight and accurate pack weights.
Can vendor plating or coating be tracked?
Yes. Coating done by vendors is tracked as outside processing within the production route.
Are heat treatment records kept?
Furnace batches can be recorded against each lot, with temperature data captured through IoT & Automation.
Does it cover cutting, heating and threading?
Yes. Formezy streamlines fastener manufacturing across cutting, heating and threading, improving efficiency, quality and cost management.
