Manufacturing Automation Capabilities
-
Take Control of Your Plant Floor Data
Connect your machines on the plant floor to drive continuous improvements and increase OEE. With Production Monitoring you gain transparent, real-time operational KPIs without the effort of tedious manual production tracking. Production monitoring allows your operators to focus on producing products and eliminating costly mistakes.

Automate and Orchestrate Plant Floor Processes
Manual paper-based systems get in the way of manufacturing excellence. They bring along with them safety risks, productivity dips, and quality costs. Not to mention take workers’ focus away from value-adding activities. Plex MES Automation and Orchestration automates setups, data entry, and other processes with Plex MES to increase the control of the flow of information for efficiency. This eliminates those disruptive and costly manual errors and saves precious time.

Turn Plant Floor Insights into Action
When production equipment fails a domino effect launches resulting in downtime, production risk, and cost. But there’s a better way. Plex Asset Performance Management (APM), coupled with Plex MES, helps businesses ensure optimal uptime, maximize throughput, and proactively approach maintenance needs. This makes you look like the hero in the event of the unexpected and your operations are inherently error-proofed.
Thai Summit America demonstrates the power of smart manufacturing technology with their use of Plex. The company has boosted production efficiency, improved inventory turns and engaged employees to improve operations.
