Planned. Tracked. Automated. Analysed. Optimised. Understood.

LYNQ is reinventing MES (manufacturing execution system) software tailored to car manufacturers, automotive production and vehicle, including vehicle parts and automotive OEM’s, manufacturers.

LYNQ MES is used all over the world from British manufacturers to German and American production companies.

MES for the Automotive Industry.

MES enables better planning, execution, and control of manufacturing operations. It helps automotive manufacturers optimise production, improve product quality, ensure regulatory compliance, and drive operational efficiency.

  • Improve efficiency.
  • Reduce costs.
  • Minimise loss.

With such a global footprint, high turnover and focus on mass production, saving costs and making the smallest efficiency gains have a huge impact.

On average, an automotive manufacturer of 50 resources (employees plus machines) could save $28,000 per month by using LYNQ MES. ROI calculator >>

Key features.

  1. Advanced planning and scheduling.

    Control complex production schedules, auto-schedule production, allocate resources for optimum productive hours and track the performance of your entire manufacturing operation against production targets. Advanced planning and data analysis tools for the automotive industry. Plan >>

  2. Data collection.

    Collect data on the production line, how efficiently it is performing and identify where losses are occurring. Effective shop-floor data capture software enables a manufacturer to know exactly what is happening, in real-time, for end-to-end traceability of raw materials, components and assembly, improving defect detection and quality control at every step.  Track >>

  3. Automate production.

    With automatic data capture from machines, standardised workflows, accelerated business processes and smart quality control. Access and report on manufacturing data in the click of a button to streamline operations, work as productively as possible and reduce manual intervention. Automate >>

  4. Analyse data.

    Gain intelligent insight into your automotive manufacturing data. Know exactly what is happening at every stage of production and be able to use this data to make process improvements; saving time and increasing production. Build reports with ease and view data dashboards on operations via any connected device. Analyse >>

  5. Optimise manufacturing.

    Gain tools to communicate more effectively via instant messaging. Move away from paper based systems with online jobs, online schedules and a plan that is accessible by everyone via laptops or tablets. Identify and address issues promptly with automatic alerts and notifications, connecting shop-floor employees with management. Optimise >>

Demand.

Demand.

Fluctuations driven by fashion and economic influences have been joined by the trend towards ‘mass customisation’. Stock levels have to be balanced against the need to avoid excessive inventory. Inadequate resource and production planning incur high operating costs, poor inventory and finished goods control, and customer delivery problems.

Manufacturers have to be able to effectively schedule materials and resources, including machine availability, skills and personnel.

How to Improve Planning and Delivery to Customers.
Quality, safety, sustainability.

Quality, safety, sustainability.

Quality and safety are not optional. Governments, lobbyists and consumers are as one when it comes to sustainability. “Circular manufacturing” requires that materials are recoverable, reusable and recyclable. Production processes must be sustainable. Compliance failure can lead to reputational damage and substantial legal costs.

Producers have to be able to track and account for equipment and material supplies and to monitor that they conform to customer and legal standards, throughout the manufacturing process.

The importance of accurate Data collection and resource tracking.
New Technologies.

New Technologies.

The technology within cars is evolving rapidly. In-car experiences are changing to keep pace with consumer demand. The forecast rise of shared ownership will require usage monitoring and financial charging infrastructure. Communication technologies such as 5G will make driverless vehicles commonplace.

Manufacturers will constantly have to monitor their systems to ensure their suitability for new demands and be prepared to change and adapt, rapidly.

Planning for the unplannable.
Maintaining profitability and competitiveness.

Maintaining profitability and competitiveness.

The auto industry is oversupplied and has excess capacity; global competition for a changing consumer base will continue to intensify. Supplier margins will be under scrutiny from OEMs seeking to optimise their own profitability. Production efficiency is paramount; waste is unacceptable. Intelligent insight, total transparency and complete visibility of resource utilisation are vital to see where time is lost, waste is occurring and efficiencies can be implemented.

Maximising profitability, maintaining competitiveness and optimising market share relies on effective management of all resources, using technology that can automate data collection, optimise workflow and seamlessly connect planning and production activities.
