Plex Manufacturing Cloud

Advanced Quality Management 

With Plex Systems’ Quality Management enterprise resource planning software, manufacturers can go above and beyond with advanced options in quality management to improve business processes. Take your quality management practices to the next level with features such as supplier quality and procurement management that allow you to extend the visibility of product quality into your suppliers’ plants.

Problem control and continuous improvement project tracking are included for efficiency as well as to gauge integration and calibration control. Quality standards compliance exists to help you meet important milestones, while internal and supplier auditing ensures your integrity on the plant floor.

Plant and Equipment Maintenance

Improve efficiency and maintain your plant floor and equipment for long-term reliability. Manage plant equipment and spare parts while developing and executing your own maintenance schedules. High-level tracking of maintenance labor ensures your resources are used effectively.

Plant Floor Control 

Unified hub to monitor and control inventory, quality, and cost in real time. Schedule and track jobs (work orders) using process routings and optional job sets (coordinated production of related jobs). Use the Control Panel to perform an array of tasks, including activity reporting in real-time, maintaining lot control, collecting inspection data, registering machine status over time, and validating tool and maintenance requirements.

Additional functionality includes scrap and rejection tracking, supply (MRO) management, and a plant floor console that displays the overall plant floor operational status at a glance. Additional optional feature sets for plant floor control that enable additional functionality such as disassembly and management of on-site heat treating equipment. Optional integration with electronic weigh scales for inventory counting is also available.

Plant Floor Mobile Access 

Go wireless but keep plant floor data right at your fingertips. Plant Floor Mobile Access allows you to use handheld mobile scanners to quickly and easily receive barcoded material and supplies while tracking tools and MRO inventory. Prepare and load finished goods for shipping and perform inventory cycle counts. Record inventory transactions, including moves, splits, and merges.

Quality Management

Maintain quality disciplines, tools, and techniques to drive inspection data collection for Statistical Process Control (SPC). Give yourself the advantage of adding essential quality disciplines as an integral part of your business processes.

Use tools and techniques like failure mode effects analysis (FMEA) and control plans to continuously improve efficiency. Use defect and deviation tracking as well as checksheets and process instructions to drive inspection data collection for SPC requirements.

Quality Management in the Plex Manufacturing Cloud enterprise resource planning system enables you to meet compliance requirements with the ability to trace production from start to finish.

Tool Management

Track your tools and features with comprehensive management with Plex ERP software systems. Establish tooling maintenance plans and track associated labor for that maintenance. Fulfill special requests, use detailed reports, and track processes to make your business run better than ever.

Make effective tools with precision and confidence. Make sure that the tools you manufacture yourself perform as required and last as they should. Begin the process with attribute planning and follow through to use in production, maintenance, and retirement.
