So, what exactly is an MES solution? In most manufacturing industries the production workshop is controlled by two large computer systems: management software and supervision software.
The role of the MES software is to establish a link between these two systems, enabling production data and technical data to be processed in the same place and at the same time. MES software also plays an important role in implementing production instructions by automating a large section of the processes and significantly improving the quality and efficiency of the operator interfaces. The strength of MES solutions lies in their ability to combine planning, execution and analysis.
There are numerous benefits of MES software for your business. By using it, you are able to enhance numerous aspects of your company management and so boost your efficiency. You also make life easier for your operators and managers by simplifying part of their day-to-day tasks.
By automating your manufacturing processes, MES solution enables you to optimise your production and provide the same product with consistent quality. You control all of the production processes by highlighting the potential for improving the production chain, while at the same time increasing your performance.
MES software also provides you with a full report in real-time of the realities in your manufacturing facilities. The immediacy of the information enables you to be more responsive and hence to take the right decisions more easily. A production problem, a human error and much more are detected in real-time and then analysed and corrected quickly so that their impact is reduced.
