Automation Alley member MPDV shares their Advanced Planning and Scheduling System to help manufacturers plan both simple operations and complex production orders quickly and flexibly. The software-based platform, called FEDRA, allows for more innovative production planning with Industry 4.0 technology tools like artificial intelligence (AI).
Watch this video to see how FEDRA applies reinforcement learning, an established AI method, to complex scenarios. FEDRA allocates a multitude of work processes, efficiently utilizing available resources to optimize throughput times, minimize maintenance times and setup costs, improve labor utilization, and maximize productivity.
