Rubber and Plastics

Epicor project management software enables intricate, multilevel phases, strict project costing, and billing. Once in production, Epicor manages complex scheduling scenarios so you get the most out of your valuable investments.

• Perform detailed estimation, planning, scheduling, costing, and supply chain logistics
• Manage the design, prototype, and manufacture of new mold and other projects
• With Advanced MES, build optimal schedules for making several or many parts at the same time using a single mold on a machine

Advanced MES enables complex capabilities for plastic and rubber products operations—such as active cavity tracking and family molding—to help optimize efficiency and get higher return on investments in automation.

• Build schedules that take into account all of the necessary mold and tooling changeovers
• Monitor equipment, assets, environmental factors, inventory locations, and their corresponding IoT data
• Detect patterns, raise alerts, and trigger business process changes — like raising a maintenance suggestion when equipment degradation is detected

Within a single engineered product, Epicor helps you consistently manage bills of material (BOM) and bills of operation (BOO) as well as multiple levels of assemblies.

This allows engineers to visually configure all components—both manufactured and purchased, and for accurate scheduling and costing of multilevel assemblies.

• Rules-based product configurations for Configure, Price, and Quote (CPQ)
• Integration with major CAD systems

Epicor infrastructure, including its quality suite, offers a comprehensive approach to automating a wide range of compliance requirements for rubber and plastics manufacturers.
