Production Line Workbench provides sophisticated job sequencing and line loading support. |
Junction F/B speaks to the special needs of the food and beverage industry with a unique approach to managing production resources, raw material usage and processing costs. The solution addresses the issues that are distinctive and critical to food-related materials: batch and continuous processing, yield reporting, raw material variability, custom processing, lot tracing, process costing, product and co-product costs, variance analysis, multiple recipes, multiple manufacturing facilities and processes, and integrated financial reporting.
In addition, our Production Line Workbench provides sophisticated graphic and math optimization tools to schedule and sequence jobs. It also provides the scheduler with immediate feedback in line loading, material availability, and key output metrics such as tonnage. Junction F/B provides an easy intuitive setup, management and reporting of production lines and provides support for food and beverage manufacturing companies that schedule production lines rather than routes and work centers.
Junction F/B Job Sequencing can often be driven by attempting to reduce the amount of time spent changing from one product to another. Re-sequencing (or careful sequencing) of production orders can often save a significant amount of overall time required to complete a set of production orders. This feature provides the ability to sequence production orders such that the overall changeover time spent is minimized.
Junction F/B helps develop and manage optimal production schedules that balance ingredient available, capacity, and processes.
