According to the software provider, the latest version of the platform uses a manufacturing-specific DevOps Center to enable software to be deployed in multiple plants located anywhere in the world.
“Version 9 of our MES delivers the rich functionality and flexibility needed for sophisticated and complex manufacturing environments along with modern software configuration management tools,” Francisco Almada Lobo, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of the company said. “Cloud support, containerization and streamlined remote deployments are all integrated to ensure enterprise-wide operations are controlled and can be continually and easily updated to meet new market demands.”
The company adds that the MES V9 uses the DevOps Center and containers technology to enable MES deployment within a matter of minutes in the cloud, on-premises or across hybrid infrastructures. “It enables users to manage product variations using a unique combination of versions, revisions and context resolutions flexibly and efficiently. It provides a new level of agility to effectively manage market uncertainties, support continued market competitiveness, and foster innovation.”
Supporting I4.0 implementation, the MES uses decentralized logic to enable dynamic production, with smart products and materials automatically interacting with intelligent machines. It also incorporates an IoT Data Platform for fully scalable, real-time data processing, as well as a Connect IoT module that accelerates the integration of devices and equipment into the platform.
“The MES provides a complete digital twin of the shop floor to ensure total visibility of operations and performance against key performance indicators (KPIs). Designed for easy 3D modelling of the plant, it further supports augmented reality (AR) scenarios.”
“This latest version of our MES provides the tools, control and agility needed for businesses to conquer uncertainty and be the best they can,” Almada Lobo concludes, “It is a way to integrate innovation into manufacturing processes and provides a platform that will deliver on production needs today and into the future.”
