Good news for Critical Manufacturing MES
RTE Portugal, European manufacturer of bicycles, has selected Critical Manufacturing MES to implement in their facility in Gaia (Porto, Portugal). The company gained an integrated system for paperless management of production operations and one-source database for effective automated information flows.
After intensive investments in shop-floor equipment in the past few years, RTE needed a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to collect information from the tools for a rigorous takt-time control of production lines.
Foreseeing future deployments, RTE Selected the Critical Manufacturing MES to run their operations due to reliability and scalability of the solution, equipment integration capabilities and real-time visibility into the operations.
"With Critical Manufacturing MES, we widely improved our production supervision in multiple areas. We have a better view and understanding of what is happening in real time on the shop floor. It also gave us the possibility to control many quality issues, as the way we can get the information from our tools with MES is very easy and consistent." said Bruno Salgado, Executive Director of RTE Portugal. "We are excited about this partnership with Critical Manufacturing that brings significant international experience in MES projects of different complexity levels."
