- Data-driven decision-making is central to Metrix ensuring uniformity, efficiency, error-free intelligent planning and imposition across the entire enterprise. Metrix enables MIS/ERP customers to expand their investment to a complete workflow, eliminating errors, streamlining processes, optimizing manufacturing, lowering costs and improving quality.

The Complete Planning and Imposition Solution
The EFI Metrix solution stores your presses, finishing equipment, stock, folds, user’s logins and permissions, along with your manufacturing standards. Centralizing this information ensures uniformity, efficiency and ultimately error-free planning and imposition across your entire organization. The EFI Metrix solution automatically and dynamically determines how many press sheets you need, the optimum layout for each press sheet, and even figures out for you the most cost-effective printing method, press and sheet size.
Automation
EFI Metrix provides automated planning and imposition workflow capabilities, and many projects can travel with Metrix with zero operator involvement. In addition to its own automation, EFI Metrix introduces unprecedented automation to print workflows by seamlessly exchanging data with MIS, prepress systems and finishing systems.
Simplify the Complex
The EFI Metrix solution builds a library of the most successful project manufacturing plans and then applies that cumulative intelligence to future projects. Metrix empowers your operators to generate plans formerly reserved for only the most skilled and experienced planners.
Ganging and Imposition
EFI Metrix allows you to achieve automatic, dynamic and unsurpassed, processing of up to 160 different orders (products) on a single layout. With Metrix you eliminate the need for outdated desktop imposition software, since it does the planning and imposition all in one step.
