you, MES Icon helps
you master it

Specifically Designed for the plastics industry, our MES software allows you to monitor and manage every production resource in real time, with an intuitive interface that optimizes processes and delivers tangible results.

MES Icon Plastic: the complete solution for plastics manufacturing

MES Icon Plastic was internally developed to address the unique challenges of the plastics industry. With this system, you can monitor production in real time, track machine parameters, optimize production line performance, and ensure final product quality. Featuring a simple and intuitive interface, our MES for plastics manufacturing is versatile and easy to use, making it ideal for various applications.

A single platform to integrate every machine and optimize production

With MES Icon Plastic and the W-Box modules, every machine—regardless of its model or technology—becomes part of a fully interconnected and optimized system. Thanks to its ability to integrate and manage any type of equipment, the software enables seamless communication across all production resources.

Thanks to the We-Box modules, which can be installed on the machines, we provide a clear and detailed overview of the energy consumption monitoring. This leads to greater operational efficiency, reduced waste, fewer errors, and lower hidden costs for your business. Real-time data is instantly accessible on tablets, smartphones, and smartwatches, making production management even more agile and precise.

Advanced planning and dynamic production management

The Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) system is an innovative and highly sophisticated tool designed to optimize production planning and resource management within a company. Unlike traditional manual planning techniques or simpler tools like Gantt charts, an APS system can handle a wide range of complex variables simultaneously and autonomously. It takes into account resource constraints such as machinery, workforce, and materials, order priorities, and cost management, ensuring a dynamic, precise, and real-time scheduling process. When integrated into MES Icon Plastic, the APS module boosts operational efficiency, minimizes downtime, and allows businesses to quickly adapt to changes, making the entire production workflow smoother and more efficient.
