Inhalt Informationen anfordern

MES (Manufacturing Execution System

MES (Manufacturing Execution System) is a production management system that operates close to the process and establishes a connection between the data of the production level and the company-wide Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. The integration of ERP and MES enables a detailed and time-correct view of all process sequences. The control of production in real time ensures a high level of transparency and traceability. The permanent and always up-to-date graphic display immediately reveals downtimes and overcapacities so that interventions can be made at short notice. Production processes can thus be better planned in the future and optimised in the medium to long term.

Personnel planning in production

With personnel planning in production, as an integral part of the MES module, you can plan according to capacity and demand, as well as object-related. Employees are assigned to services, cost centres, machines or objects, taking into account employee preferences, qualifications and availability. Staffing requirements are calculated from forecast basic values and automatically show suggestions for redeployment.

Production data acquisition (PDA)

Production data acquisition (PDA) supports you through simple operation, improved up-to-dateness, early checking of the recorded data for completeness and correctness, as well as increased transparency in the recording, processing and evaluation of production data, such as times, quantities, weights, quality and piece numbers. Standard interfaces are used to integrate the system into central ERP/PPS systems and control centre systems for direct data communication.

Machine data collection (MDC)

Machine data collection (MDC) provides systematic recording of machine signals and statuses and replaces your previous manual evaluations. The improved transparency and up-to-dateness of the data enables you to improve machine utilisation and optimise productivity. The monitoring gives you a direct overview of the current machine or plant situation at any time. This information can be accessed from any authorised PC and web terminal.
