挑战
Epoxy Technology, a leading manufacturer of specialty adhesives, faced significant challenges due to rapid growth and reliance on manual processes. They struggled with filling customer orders by hand, tracking raw materials, and managing over 500 products with mixed ratios. Manual fill tickets led to order inaccuracies, and the lack of real-time insight made it difficult to analyze batch history or predict stock loads. This resulted in customer dissatisfaction and internal miscommunications. Epoxy needed to automate their supply chain to increase efficiency and meet growing demand.

Advanced Elastomer Systems Upgrades Production
In order to maintain its share of the international market for thermoplastic elastomers AES recently expanded its Florida plant by adding a new production line. While the existing lines were operating satisfactorily using a PROVOX distributed control system with traditional analog I/O, AES wanted advanced technology on the new line for greater economy, efficiency, and reliability. AES officials were anxious to get this line into production to meet incoming orders, but two hurricanes slowed construction.
