APS
Clean up the data jungle, centralize and prepare data for advanced production
The quality of system outputs corresponds to the quality of the inputs. This simple formula has been valid for many years, yet many companies are still amazed that gems do not emerge from the "data jungle". Diving deep into this jungle, integrating data from each division, cleaning it up and adapting it into a form ideal for production planning systems is a task for the Aimtec Data Intelligence product. How exactly does it work and what can it do?
Asprova APS - a proven conductor in a new tuxedo plans production down to the second
The almost limitless possibilities for variability in production are forcing companies to look for ways to make it more efficient. One of the tools that can significantly help with this is the Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) system. In Europe, more than two dozen suppliers offer them, but there are fewer really good ones. Automotive IT specialist Aimtec relies on Japan's Asprova APS. Its new version has several advantages - even faster scheduling thanks to optimized algorithm, machine learning and a user-friendly interface. But it doesn't stop there.
Efficient Planning with the Asprova APS System at Autoneum Czech Republic
Autoneum has the vision and goal of digitalising all of its logistics processes. In 2019, digitalisation made its way to production planning, with the new solution aiming mainly to increase the efficiency of manufacturing and of plan creation. At TAL 2020, Jan Stejskal, Logistics Manager at Autoneum CZ’s Choceň plant – to which the group’s other plants are now turning for inspiration – revealed how it all worked out. But is this change in production planning “just” about a tool, or is it a much more comprehensive process?
Not Just Smart Manufacturing – Smart Planning Too
A digital factory doesn’t just mean collecting data on production and logistics processes. It also means controlling them.
Asprova Opened Our Eyes. Thanks to It We Were Able to Reduce Our Stock by 50%
The Futaba Czech company started an implementation of the Asprova system for advanced planning and production controlling in April 2014. It has been fully relying on this APS system since the beginning of 2015.
