InsAIde MES is the ideal solution for companies looking to achieve seamless factory integration by managing and controlling the entire production process.
The Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is a key component in the digitalization journey, enabling smooth communication between the ERP management system and the production plant, ensuring full MES–ERP integration.
This high-tech MES software enhances the entire production chain, reduces waste of materials and resources, and leverages data analysis to create a strong competitive advantage in the market.
Designed in line with Industry 4.0 principles, our MES system represents the core of the path toward the smart factory and the achievement of maximum operational efficiency.
InsAIde MES Modules
MES – Scheduling order status
The scheduling of orders allows operators to easily manage and assign orders to production lines by identifying the optimal sequence in relation to detailed orders, delivery, machines involved, shifts, and the maintenance and set-up activities defined.
MES – Machine status monitoring
The machine status monitoring system is the module that, by interfacing with the PLCs, sensors and I/O’s modules of the machine, and records in real-time the anomalies that occur in production, specifically loss of availability and performance.
MES – Stops and warnings
The stops and warnings management module identifies and records the causes that generated the stoppage, consequently leading to a loss of availability.
MES – Performance calculation (OEE)
The performance calculation software module measures the OEE – Overall Equipment Effectiveness, the efficiency indicator par excellence of a company.
The key element is the union between MES and ERP, which highlights any deviations between what is ideally planned and what is achieved.
MES – Direct and indirect activities (FTE)
The direct and indirect activities module balances the activities of direct personnel that are involved in the production process, and indirect activities, including all that support production.
MES – Production data collection
The Cannon Automata production data collection module is the application that, by interfacing with the machine PLC and/or the sensors along the line, automatically detects machine information on production activity, or collects it through manual entry to the panel by the operator.
MES – Order management
Order management is the module that interfaces with the order scheduling module and the company’s external management system.
In production, the operator can view the orders planned for the current week, choose the order to be assigned to the machines, and start production.
MES – Maintenance
From planning to taking requests for managing scheduled and extraordinary interventions, the MES manages the status of production assets and related maintenance activity.
MES – Quality
It monitors product quality and its process in real-time, including through its SPC statistical system, which tracks production performance and causes of nonconformity with respective corrective actions.
Sampling plans can be set up along each production stage by digitally compiling quality reports.
MES – Energy sources
Energy consumption associated with the process is constantly monitored. Through a detailed mapping of all the resources used, actions for improving efficiency can be identified and planned.
Thanks to its flexible architecture, InsAIde MES is not just a factory management software, but a true MES system designed for all manufacturing companies, capable of easily adapting to different sizes and industrial complexities.
