What is MES?

MES (Manufacturing Execution System) is designed for production management, real-time process monitoring, traceability, and data analysis. MES also bridges business information systems with production control and data collection. But MES SoftLi goes even further.

MES SoftLi allows you to design a production information system tailored to your needs.

MES SoftLi is modular, allowing you to choose which additional modules to add to the four basic modules and the core. Before deciding, explore the free demo or test the full MES in your own production.

Core

The system’s core, responsible for the operation of the entire MES and communication between the modules. It handles both incoming and outgoing communication, processing data from various sources into a database and distributing it to all connected modules. The core is managed via the Admin application, which serves as the gateway to the system and provides access to both basic and additional modules.

Modules

Basic modules

Terminal

Terminal

A tool for operators to interact with the SoftLi MES. The terminal allows them to activate, abort and cancel production orders, track downtime and defective parts, request assistance via Andon, and access key system data.

Documents

Documents

A tool that assigns PDFs, images, or other file types to specific products, orders, or machines. Therefore, you can upload manuals, work procedures, safety materials and more directly into the system.

Profiles

Profiles

A powerful tool for visualizing machine activity during shifts. Monitoring downtime, efficiency, and defect rates - both in real time and historically - has never been easier.

Reports User

Reports User

This basic reporting tool allows you to easily visualize collected data in real time and historically through graphs and tables. It comes with a set of prebuilt reports and analyses that can be instantly used and shared across the company. Upgrade to a higher version to save, edit, or create custom reports tailored to your needs.

Additional Modules

When the basics aren’t enough, take advantage of additional modules that tailor your system to your specific needs and goals.

Planner

Planner

More Less

Streamline your production planning with a visual representation of scheduled batches for each machine based on specific production requirements. Instantly track what needs to be produced, where, and when, track batch progress, identify delays, and estimate completion times under current conditions.

Andon

Andon

More Less

Need help? Just one click from the machine terminal is all it takes. Select the type of assistance - whether it's materials, maintenance, or quality control - and press the button. You can also add notes to the report, so the assigned worker will know exactly what the problem is.

Alarms

Alarms

More Less

With real-time notifications, workers are immediately informed about unexpected production events and can react immediately. You control who gets notified and when, thanks to the escalation function. For instance, operators can receive alerts at 4% defect rates, supervisors at 7%, and the director at 10%.

Energy Tracker

Energy Tracker

More Less

Using external hardware, it measures electricity, gas, compressed air, and other energy consumption on machines in real-time, and links it with other MES data. You can also view detailed information about each machine, such as the active order, the operator assigned, and the product being manufactured.

More Less
Assembly

Assembly

More Less

It enables real-time monitoring of tasks which rely entirely on human input, such as assembly, completion or packaging. Whether a task is completed in one step or involves multiple actions, MES SoftLi tracks its progress and allows you to compare it with the plan.

More Less
Forms

Forms

More Less

It simplifies communication with employees, quickly delivers required information, and eliminates unnecessary noise. Implementing forms on operator terminals enhances efficiency in employee communication, production quality checks, workplace inspections, machine health assessments, document sharing, safety measures and more.

The mid-level version of the reporting tool provides all the functionalities of the Reporting User version, plus the ability to create, edit, save, and share reports. You can define your own data endpoints, allowing you to shape the final report format. Additionally, you can assign roles and permissions, deciding if users can view the reports only after logging in or also without, and whether they can edit them.

More Less
Reports Admin

Reports Admin

More Less

The highest version of the reporting tool enables you to integrate data from third-party systems and display it within the SoftLi reporting system. This could be data from ERP, attendance, or accounting systems. All you need to do is set up the connection string to the relevant database.

More Less
Trace

Trace

More Less

Access key production data easily at any stage of the manufacturing process. You can check  the part ID, workstation, timestamp, used material, or technological data at any time. Identification is easy with technologies like BAR codes, QR codes, RFID, and OCR.

More Less
Plantview

Plantview

More Less

Provides a clear visualization of both current and past production data, including machine status and factory conditions. You can build an accurate model of production lines or the entire facility, where all relevant data is displayed in real time.

More Less
Interface

Interface

More Less

Integrates MES SoftLi with essential business systems, including ERP, warehouse, attendance, accounting, and CRM. MES automatically retrieves data already entered in other system, so you can access production orders, standards, code lists, component lists and employee attendance in one place.
