MES
Manufacturing Execution System
Bridge the gap between planning and the shop floor with real-time production visibility and control.
VEXPLOR MES provides real-time monitoring and control of manufacturing operations from order release to finished goods. Track every work order, machine, and operator across your shop floor while automatically collecting production data for quality, performance, and traceability analysis.
Non-Standard (Before)
Non-Standard (Before)
- Paper-based travelers and manual production logging
- No real-time visibility into WIP or machine status
- Quality data collected hours after production events
- Disconnected islands of automation across lines
- Traceability gaps making recall investigations costly
Standardized (After)
Standardized (After)
- Digital work orders with real-time status tracking
- Live OEE dashboards for every line and work center
- Inline quality checks with automated SPC charting
- Unified data collection across all equipment via ISA-95
- Full lot genealogy from raw material to finished product
MES Production Flow
Order Dispatch
Receive and prioritize work orders from ERP/APS, assign to production lines and shifts.
Material Staging
Verify material availability, issue components to work centers, and confirm BOM readiness.
Production Execution
Guide operators through routing steps, collect real-time data from machines and sensors.
Quality Verification
Execute inline inspections, SPC checks, and hold/release decisions at critical control points.
Performance Monitoring
Calculate OEE in real time, identify bottlenecks, and trigger alerts for downtime events.
Completion & Reporting
Confirm production quantities, report to ERP, and archive full production history.
