Plastics
A plastics ERP software package will efficiently manage a process and repetitive based manufacturing environment that is real-time and fully integrated with other functional areas such as sales, inventory, and accounting. The manufacturing functionality will be at the forefront of the ERP selection process with considerable attention given to an ERP vendor’s ability to plan and schedule multiple tools, dies, and stampings. Consumption factors such as scrap rates and regrind will also need to be accounted for as the master production schedule builds up a graphical calendar for equipment such as injection molders, extruders, compounders and thermoformers.
