Manufacturing management
Allium Dynamic Manufacturing (DM) is a modular solution that optimizes business processes by capturing, evaluating and using data effectively. It supports production planning and control not only for companies producing innovative products and services, but its modules apply across a wide range of industries.
We built the manufacturing management system on the Microsoft platforms Dynamics NAV and AX.
Choosing the right modules gives you coverage for the business processes that your existing systems do not (or only partially) support.
What Dynamic Manufacturing delivers
Pre-production scheduling
Engineering and technology stages aligned with sales order deadlines.
Integration
With engineering tools and data synchronization into the information system.
Automated data capture
From production machinery directly into the information system.
Visual planning tools
Real-time visualization, planning and control of production.
Quality & traceability
Quality control, batch tracking and end-to-end production traceability.
Cost optimization
Better use of materials, machines and people — lower production costs.
What our clients say about Allium Dynamics Manufacturing
„Our headquarters is in Switzerland and every database change goes through them — Allium has no problem with that. The cooperation is at a high level: they are responsive, react immediately, and are true professionals with an excellent approach and project leadership."
Available functionality
Solution for made-to-order and small-batch production
The module covers production through project management. It allows you to manage pre-production resources (engineering, technology) using tasks and deadlines tied to the deadlines of the master plan. The uniqueness of pre-production scheduling lies in the ability to plan unfinished and uncertified products/semi-finished goods. The status of BOMs and routings is part of the master-plan output and gives you precise information about the progress of production preparation.
Manufacturing control for the plastics industry
Our solution provides online data capture from injection-molding machines, which then serves as an information source for managers and production workers. It automatically posts produced quantities and consumed time onto production orders. The application treats molds and their parts as limited capacities, tracks cycle counts on individual mold parts and uses this information to plan their regular maintenance.
Production control using APS
One of the modules offers a graphical — and therefore much clearer — view of production load, including project capacities via Gantt chart. The overview of capacities and their utilization enables quick operational adjustments to the production plan, ensuring faster throughput of orders and more efficient use of capacity.
Data synchronization from CAD software
Integrating CAD software with the information system eliminates time loss and errors caused by manually re-entering engineering data into the IS. Data synchronization enables automatic creation of items and BOMs in the system. The solution also automatically links engineering drawings to the corresponding items.
Barcode-based data capture
The feature uses modern data-capture technology, bringing huge advantages. The barcode application provides direct access to the system over Wi-Fi via touch screens and intelligent readers. All data on the processed activities is immediately available, and the application can support any company process.
Management views and reports
Provides aggregated company data and reporting quickly and clearly. You get an instant overview of the status and evolution of business processes. Reporting can be shared with all users via a web browser, large-screen displays or mobile applications for tablets and smartphones.
