What is an Epoptia Workstation?

In the context of Epoptia MES, a *workstation* refers to a setup where production tasks are performed, often involving machines and operators.

It can be defined as either a machine or a task that an operator performs within the production process. 

Additionally, workstations can be equipped with terminals, which are the devices where operators interact with the MES software to carry out tasks.

Epoptia allows for flexible workstation configurations. A workstation can include a single machine or multiple machines, depending on the needs of the production process.

For example, a workstation might consist of two machines that perform the same task, or it could involve different tasks (like packaging and cutting) being handled by the same workstation. Workstations can be configured with multiple terminals to allow operators to log in and perform different jobs or tasks associated with the workstation.

Thus, a workstation in Epoptia MES can include machines, operators, and terminals, depending on how the production process is structured. 

This flexibility supports different scenarios, such as a single machine being handled by multiple operators, or multiple machines and tasks being managed within the same production stage.
