Course Description

This course will allow participants to learn and use a commercial Manufacturing Execution System (MES) software with practical exercises on real-time tracking, predictive maintenance and detailed data driven analysis of production processes.

With practical exercises, participants will use the open communication standard to exchange data between existing production system and MES enabling information flow via interconnectivity structure.

Course Duration: 24 hours

Course Outcomes

Participants are able to:

• Use MES to connect to machines for optimised operational visibility & efficiency in the practical way
• Create simple manufacturing dashboard for monitoring and visualisation
• Transfer business information to the factory floor enabling flexible production configuration
• Integrate appropriate sensors to collect machine data for condition monitoring, predictive maintenance and digital maintenance without affecting the existing system

Course Contents

• Vertical integration for seamless data flow between MES and machine controller (PLC)
• Creating dashboard for remote and real-time production monitoring and visualisation
• Flexible manufacturing with adaptable production configuration
• Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) status monitoring
• Condition Monitoring and Predictive Maintenance
• Remote access of alarm and events
