Software brings the capability to read real-time production data from sensors and controls and automatically re-schedule jobs around contingencies in production at plant level.
The Giraffe Scheduling System v5.0 now has the capability to read real-time production data from sensors and controls and automatically re-schedule jobs around contingencies in production at plant level.
The Giraffe Scheduling System is an integrated software suite which automates manufacturing resource planning and production control through plant simulation and process modelling.
This additional functionality extends existing capabilty to automatically re-schedule work due to amended customer order details or amended order priority.
The Giraffe Scheduling System includes modules for optimised capacity planning, optimised resource planning, production process control and optimised machine scheduling.
The Giraffe Scheduling System v5.0 offers fully automated re-scheduling based on real-time production data from sensors and controls.
All major brands of PLCs are accomodated including Allen Bradley, GE Fanuc and Omron.
