Spanish WLC producer Paprinsa engaged Greycon to upgrade their current production planning and detailed scheduling systems to Greycon’s latest solutions: opt-Studio® and X-Trim®. The implementation will be delivered jointly with Applitec, Greycon’s long-standing partner in Spain.
Greycon and Applitec originally implemented Greycon’s S-Plan and X-Trim® solutions at Paprinsa in 2007, streamlining their production process and reducing trim waste.
The upgrade, due to go live in October 2016, will improve customer delivery times by being able to compare different scenarios and ensure the planning resources are also reduced. This added functionality is very important to Paprinsa, enabling them to increase productivity whilst focussing on delivering good customer service with reduced lead-times.
Javier Farre Domingo, Manager Director from Paprinsa commented: “One of the key attributes for the upgrade will be to give us the capability to adapt quicker than ever before to our customer requirements and those last minute changes in orders. Having used Greycon’s solutions for a number of years now, we have been very pleased with how efficient it is. We are looking forward to seeing what the upgrade can do for us”.
Greycon is the world’s leading provider of production planning, scheduling and manufacturing execution systems that have been designed specifically for roll-based & flat sheet industries.
