Ignition platform for MES solutions

The Ideal Platform for MES Solutions

Ignition is the ideal platform for MES (manufacturing execution system) because you can connect, monitor, and control your manufacturing data to create systems that ensure effective execution of operations and improved production output.

with the help of Sepasoft systems, we offer a strong lineup of MES solutions for the Ignition platform. The Sepasoft MES modules for Ignition provide control, traceability, and documentation of the transformation of raw materials into finished goods in real-time.

The Benefits of Using the Sepasoft MES Modules for Ignition:

Track Material from Start to Finish: Improve accountability with enterprise-wide traceability.

Better Analyze Your Performance: Improve equipment effectiveness and reduce downtime.

Align with IEC 62264: Conform your process to IEC 62264 standards

Reduce Development Time: Build first-class MES applications faster with powerful development tools.

Enterprise-Wide Scalability: Make better decisions with real-time enterprise-wide production data.

Connect to all Operational Data

The Ignition platform comes with a comprehensive set of tools for data acquisition, including built-in SQL-database integration and OPC UA for easy connectivity to practically any PLC through third-party OPC servers. Ignition can connect to virtually any industrial historian. Through the addition of integrated third-party software modules, Ignition can also connect to any IIoT-capable device using MQTT and serial devices, such as scanners, scales, and sensors.

Improve Equipment Efficiency

OEE Downtime Module for Ignition combines both OEE calculations and downtime tracking to give operations managers a robust software package that measures efficiency and insight into how to boost OEE.

Track Raw Material

Track & Trace Module is a paperless, fully integrated solution that provides production control and product tracking from the raw materials to the finished state. With the Track & Trace Module, you can access genealogy data, and set up a centralized operator interface for all your MES information.

Improve Quality Control

Reduce or eliminate late or missing sample collection, inaccurate sample data with  SPC Module. With the SPC Module you can find and resolve issues leading to quality problems and deliver and analyze your SPC data in real-time.

Manage Recipes

With Settings & Changeover Module you can expertly build, manage and monitor recipes and quickly and accurately change machine, process or system recipes.

Consolidate Recipe Processes

With Batch Procedure Module you can add batch processing, continuous processing, and general procedure control based on ISA-88 standards to your operations. Whether you are producing multiple products or running several machines in different modes, the Batch Procedure Module simplifies the managing and editing of production recipes.

Connect to ERP Systems

Ignition comes standard with the ability to seamlessly connect to any SQL database and REST web services. Ignition also has the ability to manage REST and SOAP web service configurations, including both hosting endpoints and clients, as well as connectivity to virtually any enterprise system including ERP systems such as SAP, and many more.

Take MES Enterprise-Wide

With Ignition you can connect multiple MES Ignition Gateways across your entire enterprise to form a large, centrally managed MES solution. With MES Enterprise you can analyze MES data from multiple production facilities at a single enterprise server.
