The Advaris Cable Solution supports and interlinks all aspects of operation, especially design, manufacturing, logistics and sales. The heart of the system is a mature, high-performance manufacturing execution system (MES) attuned to the special requirements of length-based manufacturing. Advaris Informationssysteme GmbH – Germany Website : www.advaris.de With 45 years of continuous presence in manufacturing and design of rigid stranding machines, AEI Machines (Associated Engineers & Industrials Ltd) has taken power conductor stranding to the next level. The rigid strander specialist known for the performance of its machines emphasises design innovation, materials, process, workmanship and after-sales support. One of the key factors for years of consistent operation is the in-house parts manufacture, fabrication and assembly of the complete machine. AEI Machines Stand: 11D06

Advaris Informationssysteme is presenting the new generation of Advaris Cable, its solution for the cable and wire sector. As well as functional highlights, the trade fair presentation of the system developer from North Baden, Germany, will focus on the rollout of the new Advaris software platform. Pre-dating the o cial release, Advaris presents the new look and feel of the two modules: C2 (cable design and costing) and MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul). This comes with a new user interface design, web client and performance optimisation. Advaris CEO Dr Manfred Moser said: “Advaris Cable is the most comprehensive, fully integrated operations management system for cable and wire manufacturers available on the market today. For Advaris customers, Industry 4.0 is no longer utopia, it is everyday practice.” New development has concentrated on the detailed planning and scheduling module for optimised machine utilisation, on integrated variant management, and on the logging of machine and process data.

Thanks to the ergonomic user interface and the freely con gurable signals, the links with machines can be easily set up and exibly extended as required. The new MES version reads data such as recipe numbers and settings directly into the machine PLC (programmable logic control). Transport orders for the movement of materials in production are generated automatically, and transmitted to AGV transport systems (automatic guided vehicle) or forklift terminals. The ERP module for metal account management now automatically generates accounting entries for customers and suppliers from the business operations. EDI interfaces are also integrated for the electronic transmission of orders, delivery notes and invoices to customers and suppliers. Advaris Cable brings transparency to the manufacturing system and optimises production processes ▲
