Equipment and apparatus construction Mastering diversity, meeting deadlines

The equipment and apparatus manufacturing industry is characterized by requirements that are sometimes contradictory. For example, flexibility and standardization or individualization and efficiency are often at odds with each other. Customers increasingly expect tailor-made products – with the speed and price level of series production. At the same time, demands for adherence to delivery dates, documentation, and rapid responsiveness are increasing.

Companies in this industry must design their processes in such a way that they remain able to deliver at all times, even with small batch sizes, technical changes, or individual customer requests. Digitalization, automation, and transparency along the entire process chain are crucial to remaining competitive.

Whether you are dealing with series production with a wide variety of variants or complex devices in single or small series, PSIpenta/ERP helps you to control processes consistently, create transparency, and respond flexibly to changes. Parts lists and work plans can be configured flexibly and updated dynamically, even when changes are being made during the course of the project. Project structures create transparency regarding deadlines, capacities, and costs. This keeps even complex processes manageable.

The more complex the product structure, the more important detailed planning and a real-time overview of production progress become. With PSIpenta/MES, processes can be monitored continuously, resources, personnel, and material availability can be mapped transparently, and rescheduling can be carried out at short notice - for example, in the event of unforeseen order changes or supply bottlenecks. This results in greater flexibility in production, especially for smaller batch sizes and a high degree of customization. In conjunction with PSIpenta/ERP, all information flows seamlessly from the order to the production site.
