Integrating Recipe Management with Your MES

Recipes are the backbone of any factory, defining the critical processing steps required to produce high-quality products. However, many manufacturers still face challenges with recipes stored locally on the process equipment, risking unauthorized updates and a lack of oversight. While MES systems are commonly used to track production flows and identify necessary recipes, they often fall short in managing recipes securely and effectively.

In this Work Smarter video, discover how LineWorks RM enhances recipe management in a centralized approach by integrating with your MES, providing version controls and integrated approval workflows to maintain complete process integrity.
