What is MES (Manufacturing Execution System)?

A Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is a crucial production management system designed for manufacturing enterprises. It connects the enterprise’s planning layer (ERP) with the on-site control layer (PLC, SCADA, etc.), enabling real-time monitoring of production processes, data collection, quality management, and process execution. The main goal is to improve production efficiency, product quality, and responsiveness. […]

Precautions for Instrument Operations During Plant Startup and Shutdown

In chemical production, startups and shutdowns are routine but critical operations. Short-term shutdowns generally have minimal impact on instruments, with limited adjustments needed by instrumentation personnel. However, this document focuses on large-scale shutdowns and startups, such as those due to major overhauls, extensive stoppages, or events requiring prolonged halts and subsequent restarts of operations. Note
