Optimize your production

Achieving optimal manufacturing with a variable order structure requires a powerful production-planning tool. Based on your current order situation and availability of raw materials, IFS/Batch Process provides interactive support for amount-based balancing. The system also handles sequencing. In paint production, for example, different colors can be manufactured in a predetermined order. From the critical resource, you can balance both upward and downward in the order structure, receiving continuous feedback until the order is balanced. And once you have approved the balancing, IFS/Batch Process creates a production order for the entire order structure.

Simplify your company's environmental work

Environmental concerns play an important role in all process industries, no matter where you are. Every country has its own regulations for the production and handling of materials, by-products, and finished products. Environmental work is thus increasingly becoming a key factor in a company’s competitiveness. What that means in concrete terms for the day-to-day operation of an enterprise is that product labels, transport documents, or export documents must be created simultaneously with production. IFS/Batch Process makes all such product information easily accessible and supports connections to various commercial systems. For a recipe breakdown to the substance level, for instance, you can generate product information sheets and compile environmental reports in accordance with the governing national standards.
