Production scheduling for welded assemblies
Frames, brackets and fabricated structures pass through shared cutting, welding and inspection resources. Order scheduling needs to account for fixtures and preparation, as well as the final delivery date.
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
Prepare complete kits
Connect cut parts and bought-in components to welding operations so that a fixture is not reserved for an incomplete assembly.
Match people and fixtures
Represent qualified teams and reusable jigs as required resources alongside welding workplaces.
Include the finishing route
Keep straightening, machining and inspection in the sequence. An earlier weld completion may create a queue at the next station.
Compare a concrete planning decision
Illustrative scenario with synthetic data
A synthetic frame order and a repair bracket need the same welding jig. The bracket is urgent, while the frame has a reserved machining slot the following morning.
- 01Cut parts
- 02Fit and weld
- 03Straighten / finish
- 04Dimensional inspection
What to compare
Compare both sequences through machining and inspection. Include fixture occupation and the cost of missing the downstream slot in the agreed priorities.
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.
- Part readiness, welding routes and inspection durations
- Qualified resource assignments, jig availability and shift calendars
- Due dates and fixed downstream appointments
Configured for your operation
Qualification and inspection requirements must be supplied as planning restrictions. Apex does not certify welding processes or replace quality records.
