AMFG Automated Machine Queue Alerts
Every hour, WebRun opens AMFG's production schedule, finds jobs newly queued to each machine since the last check, and posts the operator a Slack list of what is coming up per printer, with the part, material, and estimated build time so the shop can prep the right plates and powder.
How do I tell operators what is queued next on each printer?
WebRun keeps operators ahead of the queue. Every hour it reads AMFG's production schedule, finds jobs newly assigned to each machine, and posts a per-printer Slack list with the part, material, and build time, so operators prep the right plates and powder before a job comes up instead of scrambling at changeover.
- Operators prep plates and powder before a job comes up
- Each printer's queue is visible without walking the floor
- Fewer changeover delays from surprise jobs
Built for 3D printing bureaus · shop-floor operators · production planners · additive manufacturing teams

Questions, answered
Does it change the machine schedule?
No. WebRun only reads the production schedule in AMFG and posts a heads-up in Slack. It never assigns, reorders, or removes jobs. The schedule stays exactly as your planners set it.
Can each operator see only their own machines?
Yes. WebRun groups the queued jobs by printer, so you can route each machine's list to the operator who runs it and keep the message focused on what they need to prep.
Is it safe to post automatically?
Yes. It is an internal shop digest with no customer contact, so WebRun posts it straight to Slack each hour. Nothing external is sent and no schedule is touched.
