cronetwork Scheduling Board FCS (Finite Capacity Scheduling) lets you simulate a wide variety of manufacturing scenarios, taking into account predefined framework conditions. You decide according to which criteria you want to schedule. Important resources such as personnel, machines and tools are taken into account.
The complex processes of a production operation become manageable and easier to understand through the visualization of interrelationships and dependencies within production. You yourself determine the mix of manual scheduling and automation. You thus retain full control.
In addition to the classic resources — machines, personnel and tools — cronetwork Scheduling Board APS (Advanced Planning and Scheduling) also takes material availability into account in scheduling. This applies to both in-house production and purchased parts, even across anonymous warehouse levels.
