Production scheduling for pumps and valves
Variant-specific components meet shared machining and test capacity. Production planning must align component readiness with assembly and the final test, including orders with different routes.
Order scheduling. Simple. Efficient.
Automate routine work. Optimize operations. Meet deadlines.
Decide faster.
Compare scenarios. Work through chat. Make informed decisions.
Easy to adapt.
Your goals and rules for machines, shifts and processes.
Keep your existing systems.
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
Align component readiness
Model required housings, shafts, seals and purchased parts as inputs to the appropriate operations. Variants can have different dependencies and release dates.
Reserve test capacity
Include suitable test benches and durations after assembly. A queue at testing can determine completion even when machining and assembly are well loaded.
Handle urgent replacements
Compare a replacement or service order against the current sequence. Make the consequences for other delivery commitments visible before changing priorities.
Compare a concrete planning decision
Illustrative scenario with synthetic data
A synthetic pump assembly is ready for testing when an urgent replacement order arrives. Both need the same test bench, but only one can finish within the available shift. Which priority should change?
- 01Component machining
- 02Parts ready
- 03Assembly
- 04Bench testing
What to compare
Compare test-bench occupancy and completion dates, including approved alternative resources. Review the delivery trade-off with the planner rather than assuming that every urgent order can fit.

Start with agreed exports from Excel, ERP or MES. Map them to your production model before connecting recurring updates.
- Variant workplans, assembly dependencies and purchased-part readiness
- Approved machining and test resources with durations and calendars
- Production and service-order priorities, commitments and due dates
Configured for your operation
Apex schedules the inspection operations you define. Test procedures, pressure settings, quality decisions and compliance evidence remain outside the scheduling engine. Validate special test rules during setup.
