Planning & Scheduling:

axxalon plan uses state-of-the-art mathematical optimization technologies to design production plans efficiently and precisely. The use of innovative algorithms optimizes processes and conserves resources – for maximum efficiency with minimum effort.

Analytics & Prediction:

Simulate measures and make data-based, reliable decisions – as the basis for a smart factory!

What problems does axxalon plan solve?

axxalon plan® realizes the shortest possible lead time for all orders. This includes the overall system of your order planning for thousands of operations, resources, tools, shift plans and dependencies. An employee in production control would not be able to do this.

Problem definition:
High daily use of resources in order planning.

Solution by axxalon plan:
Artificial intelligence optimizes order planning, saves labour costs and achieves unattainable results manually.

Problem definition:
Manual planning optimization to cope with disruptions is time-consuming and an optimal result is questionable.

Solution through axxalon plan:
Immediate reaction to real issues such as machine breakdowns, material shortages, sickness absence and much more is possible.

Problem definition:
Production planning is often not focused on flow, but on the highest possible utilization of resources and machines.

Solution with axxalon plan:
Flow, i.e. the goal of short throughput times and high delivery reliability, is deeply rooted in the DNA of axxalon plan®.

Problem definition:
By focusing on high utilization, long queues form in front of each resource.

Solution with axxalon plan:
The focus on flow is followed by short queues due to lower circulating stocks.

Problem definition:
This results in long throughput times, which are difficult to determine and vary widely.
Delivery reliability is questionable due to long and highly scattered throughput times.

Solution by axxalon plan:
axxalon plan® realizes the mathematically shortest possible lead time with maximum delivery reliability for all orders in the system.
This optimization performance is the mathematical core of the engine.

Problem definition:
Bottlenecks for optimizing the overall system cannot be determined on the basis of data.

Solution through axxalon plan:
By graphically displaying the axxalon plan® results, bottlenecks in terms of throughput time and delivery reliability become immediately apparent.

Problem definition:
Effects of bottleneck optimization in a dynamic system cannot be determined trivially.

Solution through axxalon plan:
The effects of bottleneck optimizations on the dynamic overall system can be simulated by axxalon plan®.

Application example

Application axxalon plan®

Lead time = – 118.0 days (-41,5%)
Ø lead time/order = – 80.3 days (-54 %)
Delivery reliability = 99.5% (+38%)
+ Bottlenecks in terms of lead time and delivery reliability become visible for the first time

Bottleneck optimization
+ re run axxalon plan®

Lead time = – 69.9 days (-66%)
Ø lead time/order = – 9.7 days (-66%)
Delivery reliability = 99.8% (+0,5%)

+ Next bottlenecks in terms of throughput time and delivery reliability are visible
+ Impact on the overall system can be simulated
+ Effectiveness of targeted capacity expansions can be predicted

Our software solution axxalon plan is suitable for every form of industrial production, from series production to customer-specific one-off production. axxalon plan helps you to optimize your production processes and production planning at the touch of a button. The focus here is on the shortest possible lead time and delivery reliability for all orders.

More information

  • Integration into your existing ERP or MES – no new user interface required!
  • Orders are transmitted from your existing systems to axxalon plan and sent back after optimization.
  • Display of orders, delivery dates and throughput times before and after optimization optionally possible with the axxalon plan Experience interface.
  • axxalon plan can be used in the cloud or on-premises.

Orders are transmitted from an upstream system, such as an ERP or MES, to axxalon plan, which then receives an optimal plan as a result.
This means that axxalon plan® and its incredible performance can be integrated into any of your existing systems.

At axxalon plan, your planning situation is converted into a mathematical multidimensional model and solved with constraint solvers from the Google OR tools.
In addition to Google OR tools, we also use HyperIHDG Heuristics for modeling and can connect to any system via web services.

We use advanced artificial intelligence algorithms to bring order to chaos throughout your company and optimize machines, tools, employees and resources.
This makes AI retrofittable for your company!

An ERP system (Enterprise Resource Planning)

axxalon plan incorporates all system information into order scheduling and achieves the mathematical overall optimum in terms of throughput time and delivery reliability for your production system.
In doing so, axxalon plan is simply docked onto your existing system as a microservice and you do not need to introduce “yet another new software”. Fast, simple, uncomplicated and cost-effective.

  • AI integration through Google OR tools
  • Production planning optimizes delivery reliability and short throughput times
  • Flow instead of local capacity optimization
  • Scheduling and calculation of thousands of operations and resources
  • Mathematical overall optimum
  • Transfer of the optimized order planning to your “real system” (ERP/MES) at the push of a button or automatically
  • Full integration into your system, no new interface required
