Manufacturing execution systems (MES) are computerized production management systems used in manufacturing to track and document the transformation of raw materials to finished goods.
Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) are IT-enabled systems that provide solutions for improving and optimizing the manufacturing process to the production floor engineers and managers. MES provides a solution as to how the current conditions of the shop floor are altered to generate greater output at a minimal cost.
Why is an MES essential for manufacturing companies today?
Providing real-time quality data checks and real-time feedback needed to quickly identify and resolve issues for continuous product and process improvement and optimization of manufacturing processes.
MES helps to control and optimize Production efficiently.
Helps to reduce scrap and eliminates paperwork errors and redundant checks.
How Does MES Works..?
An MES operates step by step, through all the tasks required to transform raw materials into finished goods
It does this using digital work instructions, production routings, and connecting to production machinery to build a traceable record of the manufacture of products within a factory.
Each part of the device is identified by a barcode against that particular Model.
The different parts of the devices are checked, verified, and assembled according to the barcodes
Real-Time production helps to keep a record of Production Rate as well as Wastage rates.
