ERP Scheduling Add-On for Plastic Manufacturing
ERP scheduling built for the reality of plastic manufacturing: mold capacity and tonnage constraints drive scheduling, resin changeovers create sequence-dependent setup times, and color and material moisture management at the press. Generic ERP scheduling ignores these constraints. We built ours around them — for 35+ years.
Why Plastic manufacturers Need ERP Scheduling Add-On That Understands Their Floor
Plastic manufacturing is not generic tonnage. Every mold decision is shaped by mold capacity and tonnage constraints drive scheduling, every order is shaped by resin changeovers create sequence-dependent setup times, and every weekly plan gets disrupted by color and material moisture management at the press. Off-the-shelf ERP scheduling tools were built for a textbook model of manufacturing that does not survive contact with a real plastic manufacturing floor. Our erp scheduling add-on starts from the constraints — adds finite capacity scheduling to any erp system, modeled the way plastic manufacturers actually run them.
- Mold capacity and tonnage constraints drive scheduling
- Resin changeovers create sequence-dependent setup times
- Color and material moisture management at the press
- Secondary operations (assembly, decoration) layered downstream
How Our ERP Scheduling Add-On Works for Plastic Manufacturing
ERP Scheduling Add-On is a finite-capacity-aware scheduling engine purpose-built for the messiness of real manufacturing. For plastic manufacturers — including injection molders — it handles mold capacity and tonnage constraints drive scheduling, resin changeovers create sequence-dependent setup times, and color and material moisture management at the press in a single Gantt-driven interface planners can actually use. Below is what that looks like in practice.
- Adds finite capacity scheduling to any ERP system
- Bi-directional sync with QuickBooks, Sage, Epicor, JobBOSS, Dynamics, E2
- No rip-and-replace — preserves existing ERP investment
- Single source of truth for work orders, routings, and capacity
