Food & Beverage Solutions
The Food &Beverage industry requires stringent control over production processes, quality, and compliance. From raw material intake to packaging and distribution, manufacturers need real-time visibility, full traceability, and seamless coordination between shop floor and enterprise systems. Our solution combines PLC/SCADA automation with MES (Manufacturing Execution System) to bridge the gap between production and management. MES empowers plant operators with batch tracking, quality control, scheduling, and performance analytics — all essential for smart manufacturing and food safety compliance.
Benefits
- End-to-end product traceability and audit readiness
- Better production planning with real-time order progress
- Reduced paperwork and manual errors
- Faster root-cause analysis in case of quality or process issues
- Real-time visibility into efficiency and losses (OEE)
- Compliance with food safety and regulatory standards
- Improved coordination between plant floor and management systems
- Scalable architecture to support multi-line or multi-plant operations
Key Features
- Production scheduling and order dispatching
- Batch and lot tracking from raw material to final product
- Electronic work orders and instructions on the shop floor
- Real-time performance monitoring (OEE, downtime, cycle times)
- Quality data capture and deviation handling
- Paperless reporting and compliance documentation
- Inventory management of raw materials, WIP, and finished goods
- Traceability for audits and recalls (HACCP, ISO 22000, FDA)
- Recipe and formulation management with version control
- Integration with ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Odoo, etc.)
At the heart of production, MES synchronizes all manufacturing activities:
- Tracks raw material usage, recipe execution, and operator actions
- Logs real-time process data (temperatures, mixing times, etc.)
- Issues work orders, captures quality checks, and validates batch outputs
- Records and time-stamps every production step for traceability
- Tracks raw material usage, recipe execution, and operator actions
- Logs real-time process data (temperatures, mixing times, etc.)
- Issues work orders, captures quality checks, and validates batch outputs
- Records and time-stamps every production step for traceability
MES oversees resource usage and compliance documentation:
- Tracks energy and utility consumption per product/batch
- Ensures cleaning cycles (CIP) are documented and validated
- Logs deviations, alerts, and maintenance actions
- Tracks energy and utility consumption per product/batch
- Ensures cleaning cycles (CIP) are documented and validated
- Logs deviations, alerts, and maintenance actions
MES extends to final product handling:
-Tracks packaging by lot number and expiry
-Links barcodes or RFID to production data for downstream traceability
-Ensures correct labeling, allergen control, and shipping accuracy
-Manages stock movements and updates ERP in real-time
-Tracks packaging by lot number and expiry
-Links barcodes or RFID to production data for downstream traceability
-Ensures correct labeling, allergen control, and shipping accuracy
-Manages stock movements and updates ERP in real-time
