Description

Epicor Advanced Manufacturing Execution System is designed for plastic molders, manufacturers who use repetitive processes and those who have an assembly process that involves multiple machines. It is designed to assist floor operators in monitoring and optimizing their plant operations. Advanced MES helps manufacturers monitor their business and control it with real-time information on plant and machinery. The system allows users to identify inefficient allocations of resources to find new capacity for the business. It can also be used to record machine downtime, scrap and material waste in each production cycle. The software provides real-time monitoring of processes, scheduling in real time and visibility into operations. Users can view production details and descriptors and monitor up to 100,000 cycles. Maintenance teams can access machine condition reports for planning preventive maintenance. Advanced MES integrates accounting and manufacturing estimating capability.

Description

Enhance the efficiency of your plant floor through high-definition visibility, foolproof management, and a real-time production environment that seamlessly integrates with your ERP by design. Traditional ERP systems were not specifically built for manufacturing execution, and relying on post-production information, or “back-flushing,” does little to aid in controlling output during the manufacturing process. Plex’s Manufacturing Execution Suite (Plex MES) offers real-time production oversight, providing immediate access to manufacturing data for comprehensive visibility and effective closed-loop control. This adaptable, cloud-native solution is crafted for straightforward deployment, standardization, and seamless integration with your existing corporate ERP. The suite comprises a collection of unified shop floor applications operating on a shared database, minimizing the potential for disruptions or errors caused by inter-application connections. With a focus on a paperless environment, it is user-friendly, empowering operators to boost productivity while eliminating manual process errors, ultimately transforming the way manufacturing operations are conducted. By integrating these systems, businesses can achieve a more streamlined and efficient manufacturing process.
