MPDV: Field tested MES products, services and needs-based MES solutions

Software for production

Motivation and benefits
Manufacturing IT in the age of Industry 4.0
Economic challenges facing production companies in the global world are enormous and do not leave any room for unexploited potentials in production. Transparent, responsive and efficient processes are required to exploit these potentials. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing IT solutions provide the necessary transparency and help to significantly increase the effectiveness of your production processes.
You use manufacturing IT to:
Increased utilization
Reduce lead times
Reduce energy cost
Reduce scrap rates
Reduce WIP stock
Improve labor utilization
Ensure traceability
A powerful manufacturing IT is not only an indispensable requirement for efficient production at high-wage locations, but also the basis for Industry 4.0. A Smart Factory requires a high degree of networking and can therefore only work with modern manufacturing IT.
MPDV's products and solutions enable companies to collect analyze and virtually display in real time all data generated along the value chain. In their daily production routine employees in charge can now react quickly to all unscheduled events and introduce targeted counter measures.
All MPDV products and solutions can be subsumed under the general term manufacturing IT.
These include:
The Manufacturing Execution System (MES) HYDRA
The Manufacturing Integration Platform (MIP)
The Advanced Planning and Scheduling System (APS) FEDRA
And many useful tools for integration.
Other business areas also benefit from a manufacturing IT. Our ROI-Analyzer highlights potentials in your production and how to evaluate it in monetary terms.
Application vs. Platform
Out of the box or do it yourself?
MPDV's products and solutions differ significantly in terms of their form of administration, functional scope and orientation to the respective target market. Thanks to state-of-the-art technologies, you can decide for yourself which functions you want to source "out-of-the-box" and which ones you want to develop or adapt yourself.
Factory planning simple, dynamic, realistic, adaptive
MPDV's Advanced Planning and Scheduling System (APS) FEDRA is a new platform-based software for innovative production planning, using state-of-the-art technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI). Dabei kommen modernste Technologien wie beispielsweise Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) zum Einsatz. FEDRA allows you to plan both simple operations and complex production orders quickly and flexibly. FEDRA can be used as a stand-alone solution or in combination with other products by MPDV.

Turnkey MES applications
The Manufacturing Execution System (MES) HYDRA provides a vast range of field-tested applications for the Smart Factory and is particularly interesting to production companies that...
... rely on a powerful MES partner with many years of experience
... want an out-of-the-box MES solution
... can implement their processes using field-tested standard functions
… have only few IT resources

Flexible platform solution
Whereas the Manufacturing Integration Platform (MIP) provides a platform for an ecosystem consisting of applications (so-called mApps) of different manufacturers. The MIP aims at production companies that
… do not find appropriate MES applications
… want to design their own MES and develop customized apps
… want to combine existing applications (isolated solutions) on a common database
… do not want to depend on one single supplier

HYDRA goes platform
MPDV's MES-Weaver (MW 4.0pe) combines the MES HYDRA with the MIP. This upgrade of basic services makes HYDRA the first fully functional MES that can be operated with the MIP. HYDRA users benefit from the advantages provided by an open platform in the manufacturing environment. Not only does MPDV consolidate the two product families, HYDRA and MIP, but also opens the MES HYDRA for interaction with existing IT systems in the Smart Factory. That means, the mApps based on the MIP are interoperable with HYDRA and vice versa.
All new HYDRA systems will be delivered on the basis of MW 4.0pe. Contact your personal MPDV account manager if you need more information about an upgrade to MW 4.0_pe.
Support features
MPDV additionally provides useful functions and applications in the following fields:
ERP connection
Shop floor integration
Manufacturing analytics
Mobile application
Product vs. Solution
In-house development or turnkey solution?
If you look at the IT landscape in production companies, you divide them into two categories: There are production companies that work with hardly any IT support in the shop floor, even today. On the other side, there are companies introducing systems in the past with isolated solutions. However, these systems only cover part of a typical MES portfolio. This resulted often in self-programmed solutions and but at least experience was gained in supporting the manufacturing processes with IT applications.
Regardless of the category in which you place your company, the experts at MPDV have the right package for you. The ball is in your court - choose if you acquire a complete solution or services by MPDV.
Products - MES applications as a kit
You benefit from all the advantages of standard software using MPDV's modularly structured MES products and combining them into tried-and-tested applications. At the same time, you can generate real added value with your own IT resources. You can decide which of MPDV's product and application you can use and if you would like to add your own software components or the applications from another supplier.
