Industrial process control (IPC) or simply process control is a system used in modern manufacturing which uses the principles of control theory and physical industrial control systems to monitor, control and optimize continuous industrial production processes using control algorithms.
MES provides information that helps manufacturing decision-makers understand how current conditions on the plant floor can be optimized to improve production output. [1] MES works as real-time monitoring system to enable the control of multiple elements of the production process (e.g. inputs, personnel, machines and support services).
Manufacturing engineers develop and create physical artifacts, production processes, and technology. It is a very broad area which includes the design and development of products. Manufacturing engineering is considered to be a subdiscipline of industrial engineering/systems engineering and has very strong overlaps with mechanical engineering ...
Manufacturing engineering is the field of engineering that designs and optimizes the manufacturing process, or the steps through which raw materials are transformed into a final product. The manufacturing process begins with product design, and materials specification. These materials are then modified through manufacturing to become the ...
Manufacturing process management (MPM) is a collection of technologies and methods used to define how products are to be manufactured. MPM differs from ERP/MRP which is used to plan the ordering of materials and other resources, set manufacturing schedules, and compile cost data.
A batch can go through a series of steps in a large manufacturing process to make the final desired product. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Batch production is used for many types of manufacturing that may need smaller amounts of production at a time to ensure specific quality standards or changes in the process.
Process planning in manufacturing also refers to the planning of use of blanks, spare parts, packaging material, user instructions (manuals), etc. As the term "computer-aided production planning " is used in different contexts on different parts of the production process; to some extent, CAPP overlaps with the term "PIC" (production and ...
