Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
Barco's leading MES system for the textile industry, WeaveMaster monitors and synchronizes
all manufacturing and logistic activities within the weaving mill, from yarn purchasing and
inventory up to the shipment of the fi nished fabric.
Using the Microsoft Windows ® operating system and ORACLE ® database, WeaveMaster
offers a collaborative suite of application modules. Through a Graphical User Interface (GUI),
WeaveMaster users are constantly informed about the actual situation on the production
fl oor resulting in faster reactions to problems and an increased effi ciency.
Powerful analysis tools allow quick identifi cation of poor performing machines and bottlenecks
in planning, resulting in an optimal usage of production capacities.
With today's small order quantities and short delivery times, scheduling has become a critical
function for the textile mill. WeaveMaster offers the planning department an interactive tool
allowing them to optimize loom loading based on real time information.
