MES FOR DISCRETE MANUFACTURERS
Discrete Manufacturing requires specific functionality of an MES system that differs substantially from Process applications. Some of these requirements include:
- Parts Management
- Kanban
- Paperless Shop Floor
- Schedule Changes by Work Center
Crossroads MES, as a pre-built application, is configurable for these types of requirements in ways that do not require extensive effort by the client.
The use of simple touch screens also minimizes time spent by operators using the system, allowing them to focus on their primary jobs of producing products, not entering data.
DATA COLLECTION FOR DISCRETE MANUFACTURERS
The Crossroads RMC data collection suite for discrete manufacturers provides extensive visibility to the shop floor, and availability of real-time data to the entire enterprise.
With just a few scans you can perform:
- WIP Inventory Tracking
- Paperless Picking
- Cycle Counting
- Product Tracking / Traceability
Completions can be reported at the operation or order level, and immediately recorded as part of a box or pallet for later identification during putaway or shipping.
Our extensive barcode label generation capabilities allow you to easily meet any labeling requirement with 1-D, 2-D and RFID label generation capabilities.
