The production scheduling module ρScheduling revolutionizes your production processes through the use of AI-optimization algorithms. It creates efficient production plans that not only optimize your production processes, but also take fluctuating electricity prices into account in real time.
The approach is simple, yet highly effective. Different products have different energy footprints, which is why it makes sense to take energy costs into account when planning the production orders. In the example above, a day-ahead-plan is depicted. The diagram on the left shows that the slide car is produced first, then the ball and finally the rubber duck: With a fixed-price electricity tariff, the production sequence did not affect the electricity bill. With dynamic electricity tariffs, however, the time of electricity use makes a considerable difference.
pScheduling schedules the energy-intensive slide car in the afternoon, when the electricity price is lower. The bathing duck is scheduled in the morning when the electricity price is high and the ball in the late afternoon. This means that all order times are adhered to, but production costs are effectively reduced.
ρScheduling offers production planners a selection of optimal production plans, tailored to individually weighted target values such as processing time, electricity costs and delivery reliability. This gives you the flexibility to decide which priorities offer the greatest added value in the current production environment.
The result: up to 20% lower electricity costs, a significant increase in production efficiency and a noticeable reduction in the workload of your energy team. With ρScheduling, you can rely on an intelligent, future-proof solution that sustainably optimizes your production planning and strengthens your competitiveness.
