42Q Auto Routing Creation

42Q Auto Routing Creation

The Auto routing creation will be available in the shop order release module as a new option. Global settings will be available to switch functionalities such as the ability to create routes and locations automatically on and off (both will be disabled by default).

 

42Q Labor Tracking

42Q Labor Tracking

42Q Labor Tracking can help collect information about the labor involved in the build process, providing visibility to the amount and type of labor used. Engineers and planners can use that data to efficiently plan their build schedule, as well as to optimize the use of one of their most key resources - the operators.

 

42Q Material Allocation

42Q-MES0161 Material Allocation

Factories are complex, busy places with a lot of systems, machinery, and processes in place. Technology plays a key part in the manufacturing world. We see the benefits of it clearly through lot traceability — you can streamline your supply chain and have confidence in all of the steps along the way.

The inventory management system allocates a specific quantity of materials, as determined by purchasing workers, to meet customer demand. Allocating material to a sales order does not remove the quantity from inventory. The allocation creates a projection of the amount of material the company will need to meet the current demand or sales orders.

 

42Q Multimedia API

42Q-MES0159 Multimedia API

Multimedia Application Programming Interface is a set of endpoints that allow client applications to safely talk to 42Q media repositories. It is a collection of high-level APIs that support flexible application development. It is the same engine used by standard 42Q Clients such as PWB (Production Workbench) to capture, store, and link media to manufacturing processes as they happen.

The Multimedia API ecosystem provides what it’s needed by a customer to integrate their local applications with 42Q unleashing all the power, scalability, and elastic storage provided by a true cloud-based manufacturing execution system.

 

42Q OEE

42Q-MES0160 OEE Whitepaper

By definition OEE is the cumulative measure of three separate factors: Availability, Performance and Quality and together they can provide you with a good measure of how well your production line is running. Such information is critical when trying to determine benchmarking in order to improve your company's efficiency.

 

42Q Production Scheduling

42Q Production Scheduling

The Production Scheduling tool helps users to see the status of the scheduled Shop Orders allowing them to have better visibility of the planning process to be focused on the priorities.

 

42Q QCP Configuration

42Q-MES0157 QCP Configuration Whitepaper

Quality Control Plan (QCP) is the documentation that includes and/or lists all the quality-related checkpoints during the production run. Depending on the situation, this documentation can include products and checkpoints. 

 

42Q SPC

42Q SPC

The selection of a Statistical Process Control (SPC) system is quite important to keep and enhance quality control because it helps to identify what can be improved and avoided to have a successful production through statistical analysis.

 

42Q Tooling Control

42Q-MES0158 Tooling Control Whitepaper

Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) Tooling Control is the sister companion to CMMS Asset, 42Q’s complete solution for asset management. Tooling Control integrates with 42Q’s shop floor control package (MES 101), and their powerful business analytics tool (MESWeb), to provide ultimate control and traceability for factories that utilize tooling equipment (e.g. test jigs, test fixtures, solder paste stencils, and squeegees, vacuum blocks) and assembly tools (e.g. screwdrivers, torque meters, etc.) in conjunction with their factory’s assets.
