Companies in discrete manufacturing are constantly faced with new challenges. In particular, the focus is on improving products with shorter innovation cycles at lower costs and higher quality. The increasing range of variants and product complexity is often accompanied by a growing number of different system landscapes, resulting in a rapid increase in costs.
With our Manufacturing Execution System (MES) PLUS, we offer you a product for the holistic control of your production processes while simultaneously reducing your production complexity. Instead of having to operate and maintain countless systems within your production, with PLUS you can helps to map the entire production control in just one system - across plants and globally. Our MES optimizes order control, thus forming the central nervous system of the customer order process.
PLUS controls the entire order-related production process - from order picking and pre-processing to assembly and finally the smooth handover to logistics. The use of flexible and event-driven workflows enables fully automated production control, data collection, recognition and distribution as well as reactions to special events in your production.
We use abat as our production control system for our INEOS plant in Hambach and turn to abat and HPE as our partners for the realization and support. Our target was a modern, digital and Industry 4.0 production. As a result, we reached our target: we have increased flexibility, created stability and increased efficiency in production
