MES system is one of production line auto control systems necessary for auto production line and can relieve the heavy manual recording and inputting work, reduce the errors and improve the efficiency of production line and also, it can provide accurate and detailed materials for the data statistics of product and production line, which is the best tool for large manufacture enterprises to improve the workshop work efficiency, optimize the technological process and strengthen the quality inspection and after-sale maintenance and services.
The manufacture enterprises can realize the workshop production plan and control, production task inquiry, production process monitoring, intelligent data acquisition, quality inspection and control, material tracking, raw material and accessory material consumption control, workshop evaluation and management, statistics analysis, HR and equipment management, etc. via the MES (Manufacturing Execution System) to completely assist enterprises to manage the black box operation in the production field.
MES improves the manufacture competitiveness through controlling all factory resources including material, equipment, personnel, flow instruction, facilities, etc., provides a mode of integrating various functions as quality control, document management, production control, etc. on a uniform platform on a system basis, which thus realizes the integration of real-time EPR/MES/process control systems and become a information exchange bridge as well as makes the enterprises able to understood the production information and implement the production decision in real time.
Also, MES improves the automation degree of enterprises, replaces and saves large quantities of manual operations and shortens the manufacture recycle of products. In addition, it executes the information acquisition and feedback, removes the production delays due to information asymmetry, which thus makes the production managers able to understand the first-hand production data outside the workshop and make quick response to the accident cases and makes output and plan more closely combined.
It provides useful base data and analysis tools to quality control personnel and assists the enterprises to carry out daily quality analysis and improve the production quality on a periodic basis via monitoring on the production process. Based on the large quantities of comprehensive statements extracted by virtue of data mining, it provides customers with summary data as personnel, machine, material and method during the product process and output, yield, etc.
Along with the aggravation of market change and competition, more and more customers feel the cost pressure and production capacity limit, so it is a direct resolution to build new production line to expand the capacity. However, compared to long recycle and large investment of building new production line, the resolution with ‘small investment and quick return’ as modifying and upgrading the existing system to improve the production capacity and save energy becomes the first choice for many smart managers.
By virtue of Lehui’ strong equipment manufacture ability and abundant technological design experience and in combination with successful application experience of BrewTech expert control system in many projects at home and abroad, the system can provide you with the most cost efficient resolution from technological design and equipment manufacture to control system upgrading.
