Production scheduling for cable and wire harness assembly
Many variants share cutting equipment, crimping tools and manual assembly capacity. Detailed scheduling brings these resources together with material readiness and order deadlines.
Order scheduling. Simple. Efficient.
Automate routine work. Optimize operations. Meet deadlines.
Decide faster.
Compare scenarios. Work through chat. Make informed decisions.

An AI add-on for your planning. No system switch. Runs locally.
Today, the planner manually reconciles Excel and ERP or MES. With Apex, an AI agent prepares data from connected systems and creates planning alternatives. The planner sets priorities, reviews the result and releases the plan. The animation illustrates the workflow, not measured processing times.
With Apex
What your schedule needs to connect
Plan shared tooling
Record eligible equipment and the required applicators or fixtures. Order sequencing must respect shared tools as well as machine capacity.
Connect manual operations
Include assembly, routing and finishing work with the required people and workstations. A fast cutting sequence should not hide a growing queue in manual assembly.
Finish with testing
Schedule inspection operations after assembly. Compare the completed order, not just prepared wires, when reviewing whether the delivery date is achievable.

Illustrative scenario with synthetic data
Two synthetic cable orders need the same crimping applicator. One has a tighter due date; the other needs longer manual assembly and a shared electrical tester. Which should be crimped first?

- 02Crimping
- 03Harness assembly
- 04Electrical test
What to compare
Compare both routes through final testing. Review setup effort and hand-assembly workload together so a simple tool sequence does not create a late finished order.

- Variant-specific workplans, lot quantities and operation times
- Wire, contact and connector availability; shared tooling
- Manual-work capacity, test equipment and order delivery dates
Configured for your operation
Wire-length optimization, electrical design and test evaluation remain in specialist systems. Apex needs defined jobs, material readiness and resource rules; special lot and traceability requirements are clarified during integration.
