With our systems you can monitor, control and optimize your entire production. You use the system to plan simple operations or complex production orders. To make all this possible, the MES HYDRA, the APS FEDRA and the MIP combine numerous functions. Knowing and managing these functions takes practice.
Since no one knows our products as well as we do, our experts pass on their know-how to you directly at first hand. You will learn in our training courses how to use the functions efficiently and accurately - and at the same time get the most out of our systems.
An investment in knowledge pays the best returns.
