Features
-
Transport Order Management Transport Order Management involves organizing transports based on material characteristics, availability, schedules, and vehicle capacity. It ensures on-time supply to production lines through transport prioritization and provides automated updates to planned transport orders, allowing for real-time adaptation to changing conditions. Additionally, it offers transparency of all movements through the transport journal.
-
Storage & Transport Optimization Storage & Transport Optimization includes a configurable PSImetals Destination Finding rulebook that evaluates the suitability of storage locations for specific materials by considering their properties, the characteristics of the location, and the materials already stored there. It selects the optimal storage location based on the material requirements and the current yard conditions. Additionally, the PSImetals Route Finding determines the optimal routes for multi-step transports involving various means of transport.
-
Warehouse & Yard Management PSImetals Warehouse & Yard Management offers precise mapping of warehouses, yards, and storage areas, tailored specifically to the requirements and challenges of the metals industry. It ensures full transparency of materials and storage conditions at all times, supported by 2D and 3D graphical displays. The system tracks transport vehicles within the yard and includes integrated PSIweb Apps for mobile devices and scanners, enabling efficient inventory management and stock reconciliation.
