Limis Planner (Limis)

Limis Planner is a smart add-on that helps manufacturing companies optimize and maintain flexibility in their production planning. Through an API, Limis Planner is linked with MKG to retrieve relevant data.

Limis Planner (Limis)

 

Using powerful algorithms, an optimal plan is generated based on your own parameters and production strategy, which is automatically fed back to your ERP system.

The Limis software takes into account a wide range of planning settings and dependencies. Consider material availability, order clustering, and sequential dependencies between production or processing steps. This results in a realistic and efficient plan that seamlessly fits the shop floor practice.

With Limis Planner, you optimally utilize both human and machine resources, reduce lead times, and increase delivery reliability – even with rush orders or last-minute changes. Features such as the Scheduler (for smart planning calculations and visualizations), Move Rate Planning (for flexibility without losing delivery dates), Order Acceptance (for realistic delivery times during order entry), and DDMRP (for dynamic material planning) make Limis Planner a powerful tool for any manufacturing environment looking to advance.

The Integration

 

Limis Planner seamlessly integrates with MKG and automatically retrieves the necessary order and capacity data via an API. Based on this information, the software generates an optimal production plan, where the correct sequence of operations is intelligently calculated using scheduling and your planning parameters. 

This sequence is then fed back into MKG, allowing you to fully utilize the Shop Floor Control functionality of MKG. The shop floor control remains unchanged, while the planning is optimized in the background by Limis – quickly, accurately, and always up-to-date.
