Resumo
In order to stay competitive, Iron & Steel companies are facing the challenge of more flexible production, higher demands on product quality and reducing costs. These goals can only be reached by investing in cost-effective production processes, using state-of-the-art technologies. Individual processes have already been automated and optimized so far, that there is only little room left for improvement. The ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems are limited with regard to general production planning. The knowledge of the actual plant status and the technological constraints of the production process are not available in an ERP system. Therefore modern plants need new technologies as important part of enterprise IT which is able to link the various individual processes to form an optimum process chain and connect the automation- and the process-level with the management level (horizontal and vertical integration). According to the definition of MESA (Manufacturing Execution System Association) MES deliver information that enables the optimization of production activities from order launch to finished goods.
