Nowadays, the MES system has become the core of smart factories. The MES (Manufacturing Execution System) is responsible for rapidly reflecting the ever-changing factors in the production process into the production plan. In a smart factory, the MES system acts as an information hub, establishing a real-time information channel between planning and production.
Manufacturing enterprises are most concerned with three questions: what to produce, how many to produce, and how to produce. The advent of smart factories will enable these issues to be addressed more precisely. Among them, the first two questions are answered by the enterprise's production plan. In a smart factory, the production process control system SFC can solve the "how to produce" problem, while systems such as ERP and CRM are responsible for providing data and information for the production plan.
The MES system in a smart factory fills the information gap between production planning and production control, enabling enterprises to respond promptly to various situations that arise in the production process. The MES system component of the smart factory system developed by Alps System Integration (Dalian) Co., Ltd. will help enterprises achieve smoother production processing and coordination.
