What CIMS can do, why can t MES do it all?

Each step in the manufacturing process yields countless amounts of valuable data per run. Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) track, control, and record these steps in real-time, helping manufacturers optimize production by providing visibility into what's happening on the shop floor.

China's relatively excellent MES, China's own intellectual property rights.

You can find out.

ERP stands for Enterprise Resource Planning in Chinese.

ERP is a system for the effective sharing and utilization of enterprise resources. Through the information system, the information is fully sorted out and effectively transmitted, so that the resources of the enterprise can be reasonably allocated and utilized in all aspects such as purchase, storage, production, marketing, personnel, finance, and materials, so as to improve the operating efficiency of the enterprise. Broadly speaking, other management runs under the framework of ERP, which is a subset or intersection of ERP.

The Chinese name of MES is Manufacturing Execution System.

The MES system is a set of production information management system for the executive layer of the workshop of manufacturing enterprises. It is the execution layer between the planning layer and the on-site automation system, which is mainly responsible for the production management and scheduling execution of the workshop. The MES system helps enterprises implement complete closed-loop production by emphasizing the overall optimization of the manufacturing process, and assists enterprises in establishing an integrated and real-time ERP MES SFC information system.

Create a solid, reliable, comprehensive and feasible manufacturing collaborative management platform for enterprises.

MES is the monitoring and feedback of the ERP plan

ERP - Business Planning System - solves the problem of what to produce; MES – Manufacturing Execution System – solves the problem of how to produce.

ERP is a business management level system, while MES is an on-site operation level system. MES is a coordinated information system between the ground floor and the upper ERP system. It provides transparency of production floor information that ERP systems can't; It provides a reliable data interface connecting the upper management system (such as ERP) and the lower floor workshop (operation terminal and equipment).

The MES system acts as an information transmitter of production activities from the issuance of work orders to the output of finished products. ERP makes the production planning of the MES system more reasonable; MES makes the data of the ERP system more timely and effective, and the work efficiency is higher.

ERP is oriented to the enterprise planning layer and serves senior managers;

MES is for the workshop executive layer and serves middle managers;

ERP and MES are both part of enterprise informatization, which can be understood as ERP is responsible for the management of strategic objectives, and MES is the process of refining strategic objectives, decomposing and executing.

Hello! Generally, it is divided into three layers, ERP belongs to the upper layer, which manages enterprise resources; MES belongs to the middle layer, and the pipe production process is refined; DCS belongs to the lower layer, which mainly collects equipment data and controls equipment. If we take people as an analogy, ERP is equivalent to "brain", MES is equivalent to "nervous system", and DCS is equivalent to "limbs".

We are in the electronics industry, and the MES of Henan Zhengzhou mustard information is not bad, cost-effective, and solves the problem of production transparency and product traceability.

The difference and relationship between ERP and MES systems, the relationship between these two should be in parallel, but the specific is not very clear, because these are two different systems, so sometimes there is not necessarily anything to do with it, here is also a guess, guess wrong, I hope you understand.

mes(manufacturing execution system) i.eProduction process execution system for manufacturing enterprisesIt is a set of production information management system for the executive layer of the workshop of manufacturing enterprises.

MES can provide enterprises with management modules including manufacturing data management, planning and scheduling management, production scheduling management, inventory management, quality management, human resource management, work center equipment management, tool and tooling management, procurement management, cost management, project kanban management, production process control, underlying data integration analysis, and upper data integration and decomposition, so as to create a solid, reliable, comprehensive and feasible manufacturing collaborative management platform for enterprises.
