Collection mode

The Infor MES scrap functionality can work either automatically, through a connection to the equipment using a PLC, or manually, enabling operators to manually record scrap in real-time, or at the end of a job or shift.

Automatic mode

In automatic mode, operators are alerted in real-time when there is scrap recorded on the operator dashboard.

Manual mode

In manual mode, the operator can either record scrap in real-time, or the scrap can be entered retroactively at the end of the production run or shift, or when the scrap is weighed.

Manual retroactive

In manual retroactive mode, the operator logs the scrap at the end of the job or shift.

[None]

If [None] is selected, then no scrap is recorded on the machine.
