Futaba North America Manufacturing 2000 $700M United States Plex Systems Plex MES Automation and Orchestration Manufacturing Execution System 2023 n/a In 2023, Futaba North America implemented Plex MES Automation and Orchestration as part of a broader deployment of the Plex Smart Manufacturing Platform. This program falls under the Manufacturing Execution System category and is contracted as a multiyear rollout across multiple FNA automotive production sites in the United States and Canada, covering five locations and more than 2000 employees. Plex MES Automation and Orchestration has been configured to provide shop floor orchestration, automated production monitoring, and real time inventory management integrated with production scheduling. The implementation emphasizes complex planning and reporting, quality management workflows through the QMS module, and asset performance oversight via APM, using cloud delivered services to centralize execution, enforce process controls, and enable traceability across metal forming, welding, and assembly operations. The MES Automation and Orchestration instance is integrated within the Plex Smart Manufacturing Platform to connect production, supply chain planning, and business operations, including DemandCaster supply chain planning and the ERP module. Plex Professional Services will support the multi site implementation, enabling phased rollouts and alignment of MES data flows with enterprise reporting and supply chain systems. FNA established a governance approach that leverages a single provider with automotive domain expertise to standardize processes and consolidate machine to enterprise connectivity, coupled with multiyear change management and phased go live sequencing. Futaba North America cited Plex’s security posture and uptime as selection criteria, and the standardized Manufacturing Execution System deployment is targeted to improve scrap rates, increase labor productivity, and lower overhead costs as part of the enterprise optimization plan.
ParkOhio Manufacturing 6400 $1.7B United States Plex Systems Plex MES Automation and Orchestration Manufacturing Execution System 2009 Rockwell Automation In 2009, ParkOhio implemented Plex MES Automation and Orchestration from Plex Systems for its Assembly Components Group, deploying a cloud-based Manufacturing Execution System to enable real-time shop floor operations. The program anchored a suite that included Plex ERP and Plex MES and targeted a move away from batch information collection toward real-time transactional control across production and quality functions. Plex MES Automation and Orchestration was configured to automate paper-based work flows, orchestrate machine-driven events, and enforce process control through MES capabilities such as work order tracking, routing, in-process quality checks, and embedded poka-yoke logic. The cloud architecture reduced infrastructure overhead, enabling the team to bring four plants online in six months and to set a repeatable target of six month implementations for newly acquired facilities. Integrations were implemented to capture machine telemetry and execute automated interventions, notably using Allen-Bradley PLC integration to trigger quality alerts and to block nonconforming parts from downstream operations and shipment. Rockwell Automation was the SI VAR supporting automation integration, and the Plex suite provided a common information platform that connected production, quality, inventory monitoring, and purchasing workflows, including remote tank level monitoring and reorder alert messaging. Rollout governance emphasized change management with cross functional core teams at each site, extensive piloting, and training designed to shift operators to real-time decisioning. Operational outcomes reported by ParkOhio include access to real-time information, automated processes, improved quality control, reduced unnecessary costs, improved profitability, and remote data access across 19 manufacturing, assembly, and warehouse facilities in the United States, Mexico, and China.
ParkOhio, Assembly Components Group Manufacturing 3000 $578M United States Plex Systems Plex MES Automation and Orchestration Manufacturing Execution System 2009 n/a In 2009 ParkOhio – Assembly Components Group launched Plex and began standardizing its shop-floor operations with Plex MES Automation and Orchestration. Plex MES Automation and Orchestration is used as a Manufacturing Execution System across the ACG segment, with 19 manufacturing, assembly, and warehouse facilities in the USA, Mexico, and China on Plex and three additional ACG sites receiving side-by-side MES A&O implementations in the last year. The implementation emphasizes embedded MES capabilities and custom automation logic, including custom scale and scrap handling, furnace load sequencing, print-label logic, and automated piece traceability. ParkOhio ACG developed poka-yoke controls across critical processes such as vulcanizing and laser etching, and implemented kill-switch logic so a part that failed or skipped an upstream operation is blocked from downstream machines. Plex MES Automation and Orchestration is integrated with machine data streams and digital measuring systems to enforce process limits and capture part-level telemetry in real time. These integrations enable automated quarantining of suspect hose product, text-alert notifications to operators, and remote monitoring of material usage by buyers with reorder alerts tied to measured consumption. Rollout governance followed a plant-by-plant expansion model with side-by-side implementations to maintain production continuity while codifying standardized automated workflows and quality gates. The program shifted multiple paper-based controls to system-enforced workflows, reducing manual interventions for engineers and centralizing error prevention on the shop floor. Explicit outcomes reported include simplified processes, digitized paper workflows, increased shop-floor accuracy, reduced customer issues, lower inventory, and reduced unnecessary costs. ParkOhio – Assembly Components Group was recognized as Plex’s 2023 Industry Leader Impact Award winner for these achievements.
