It is a real-time integrated production information system that aggregates data across production in real time from order to final production, provides statistical analysis, and actively contributes to corporate management by supporting reasonable production activities (instruction, control) and quality innovation activities.
Manufacturing execution system, or MES, is a comprehensive and dynamic software system that monitors, tracks, documents, and controls the process of manufacturing products from raw materials to finished products. Providing a functional layer between enterprise resource management (ERP) and process control systems, MES provides decision makers with the data they need to increase production site efficiency and optimize production.
Resource Allocation Status
Manage entire resources such as machinery, facilities, tools, materials, workers, documents, etc. Manage the status and status of available resources in real time to ensure proper allocation and deployment of resources that meet your work objectives.Operation/Detail Scheduling
Establish a schedule based on attributes and characteristics such as priority, process time, and equipment associated with the production unit. Redundant or parallel tasks and alternatives are identified to adjust the time required, equipment loading and movement types, and companies can establish detailed work schedules, work shift schedules, etc. according to the production plans collected in this way.Dispatching Production Units
Manage the progress of processes in the production unit such as work content, lot, batch, and work order. Distribution information allows you to change the order of work performed on site in real time.Document Control
It manages essential materials required in the production process, including work instructions, drawings, standard work procedures, batch records, specifications, ISOs, changes, and supports functions such as storage, editing, and distribution.Data Collection/Acquistion
Real-time data is collected by production unit, such as process, material movement, and operation, which can be transmitted manually from the site or automatically collected from the facility. This data is collected to monitor real-time progress and contribute to making decisionsLabor Management
Manage work performance based on unit time. Optimizes worker placement by considering worker's schedule and skill level, attendance reporting, qualifications, and authority.Quality Management
Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Statistical Quality Control (SQC) are carried out based on pre-populated quality criteria and provide guidelines for correcting problems by considering interactions with signs of quality change, causes and effects.Process Control
It collects data from the entire production process from ordering to production and shares real-time progress. This enables individual workers as well as companies to recognize alerts and change processes and modify production plans.Maintenance Management
Maintain historical records for diagnosing problems and adjust and implement maintenance schedules by identifying the current status of the facility before any actual problems occur. This reduces downtime and improves efficiency.Product Tracking and Genealogy
Use the product's unique number to track the production location, regular operation, and status information. In particular, the status information may include other exceptions associated with rework or production, such as operator or supplier element material, lot or serial number, production conditions, and alarm status.Performance Analysis
Compare past production records with expected results, compare goals with actual results. Actual results can identify and improve strengths and weaknesses of the overall process, including measures such as resource utilization, resource availability, cycle time, schedule compliance, and standard compliance.
Advanced manufacturers are constantly stepping up the establishment of integrated production management systems such as MES.
MES now appears to be building as an essential tool across industries, including electric, electronics, semiconductors, automobiles, energy, shipbuilding, construction and chemistry, as well as increasingly available data at higher and lower levels with limited resources.
As the prevention of production site malfunctions and early detection of causes of defects through MES increase production efficiency, MES has become an essential tool as a key manufacturing technology in today's diverse and complex manufacturing environment.
