Inefficiency Costs

The goal of

Improve System

is to identify and

remove the

hidden costs,

through the

methods

delivered from

SPC Theory.

Evaluating results

ImproveNeXT MES Platform

Manufacturing Execution System

Provide an informatic tool to

support Quality, Production and

Direction Manager in the

evaluation of plant efficiency and

real-time quality.

Framework

ImproveNeXT MES Platform

Manufacturing Execution System

Software Agents and graphic components designed for the World Class Manufacturing

Created to follow dynamic processes, like quality systems

Integration guaranteed with the most common ERP Systems

The graphic components are arranged to provide immediatly the required information, is not the user that adapts to the system

Production Changes

Daily, weakly, monthly views

Calendar To Detection

You can Read and Write

information in simple forms

Improve provides automatic

data acquisition from plant

Highlights the out-of-control

variables

Products Quality Control

Every produced reel is traced by Improve, through specific interface with ERP or production systems.

Improve manages the quality controls, provides simple forms depending the working products.

Traciability of child reels

Improve trace the association between mother reel and child reel. Therfore it’s possible to identify mother reel knowing child reel.Process history during production flow of a specific reel, is related to the traced unit, also cellulose and chemical consumed.

Flow monitoring

Quantitative valorization of

chemicals usage

Economic valorization of

chemicals usage

Energy Consumption

Improve runs the monitoring of energy consumption and correlates energy consumption with the production flow. Thus allows to exploit precisely the energy costs for each production order.

Improve acquires the energy data

through the plant DCS or through

directly linked sensors distributed in

specific locations

Real-Time Analisys

Real-time views in TV-LED panels of the acquired and processed data.Instantaneous views of key performance indicators and control charts.

Production Efficiency Analysis

OEE: Overall Equipment Effectiveness

It allows to identify and quantify the major production losses of the plant, and to monitor the efficiency of the production processes.

Action Plan

NeXT Systems are based on the new Agents tecnology; an agent

borns, lives and dies achieving its goal.

Tecnology

Web-Oriented

User Interface;

very ergonimic

Forms and

simple to use.

The usability is

our first

objective.

Intelligent Agents Framework

Web Intelligent Platform

NextGen F.D.S.

NeXT tecnology is integrated on opened systems; thus NeXT Systems

allow to solve complex problems with high reliability and availability,

optimizing the resources.

Tecnology

NeXT platform is

heterogeneous.

Multiples agents

can live on

different

Operative

Systems and are

developed

through different
