Production scheduling for rail equipment components
New-build components and replacement assemblies can compete for the same workshop resources. Order scheduling connects approved routes, component readiness and test capacity for each released order.
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
Separate route variants
Assign the approved operations and eligible resources for each component type and revision.
Coordinate subassemblies
Connect fabricated or machined parts to final assembly so that missing parts do not disappear behind an early workshop start.
Handle urgent spares
Compare a priority replacement order with existing production commitments through inspection and testing.
Compare a concrete planning decision
Illustrative scenario with synthetic data
A synthetic rail-component supplier receives an urgent replacement assembly while a new-build lot is in progress. Both need the same final test station.
- 01Part fabrication
- 02Machining
- 03Component assembly
- 04Inspection / test
What to compare
Compare the replacement order's priority through the full route. Review the impact on the committed lot and the test-station workload.
See scenario planning in ApexBring the data you already have
Start with agreed exports from Excel, ERP or MES. Map them to your production model before connecting recurring updates.
- Approved component routes and revision assignments
- Parts availability, inspection steps and resource calendars
- New-build and replacement-order commitments
Configured for your operation
Certification, engineering change control and traceability stay in the relevant systems. Apex requires their approved planning inputs and does not provide rail-sector certification.
