Online Quality Inspections

With quality features enabled, operators receive prompts for inspections and can input results directly. Inspections can range from simple visual checks to complex measurements with gauges. Entered measurements are checked against min/max tolerance levels, and the system determines if parts are good or if further action is needed. Goods can then be held, scrapped, or marked for rework.

Automated Machine Data Collection

Automate and error-proof production reporting with Epicor Production Manager. Integrate touchscreen HMI and PLC interfaces to replace scan sheets, collect data automatically, and update CMS in real time, letting operators focus on production.

Labor Tracking

Supervisors and operators log into the HMI with role-based access. Track labor for setup, production, and downtime, and verify employee skills with optional capabilities.

Production and Quality Alerts

Operators see alerts in Epicor CMS at login or job changes. From there, they must acknowledge alerts and view any associated images before proceeding. A log records each acknowledgment.

Scrap Reporting

Automatically capture scrap with intelligent machines or manually enter scrap data and reason codes via the HMI. This includes finished goods, WIP parts, or components, ensuring thorough scrap management.

Production Reporting

Automatically capture good pieces and time via OPC or manually with the HMI. Automatic reporting can be based on machine cycles, while manual reporting involves pressing the standard pack button when a container is filled, which reports production, prints a label, and backflushes materials.

Container Tracking

In automotive, Production Manager defaults finished goods to a standard container, with options to override. This simplifies tracking expendable vs. returnable containers and links them to serial labels for easy shipping.

Automatic Changeovers

Automatic changeover prevents mismatches between reported and actual production. It validates machine data to ensure correct labels are printed, avoiding costly errors in shipments.

Partial Containers

Track partially filled containers easily with CMS Production Manager HMI. Operators can check for partial containers and use the "Fill Up" option to report production while maintaining traceability.

Labeling

Print customer and master labels line side automatically or with operator intervention. Configure the system to print left and right labels on designated printers, preventing mislabeling errors.

Downtime Tracking

Automatically track machine status with part reporting, whether running or down. Operators or supervisors can tag downtime with a reason, aiding in continuous improvement and reducing downtime.

Document Visibility

Supervisors and operators can access all essential documents, including drawings, process sheets, and quality plans, in real-time to ensure high-quality parts.

Empower Your Team

In global manufacturing, real-time data is crucial for reducing costs and seizing opportunities. With Production Manager, shop floor operators and supervisors get real-time insights, enabling faster, more effective decision-making and preventing costly issues.
