A significant part of the manufacturing process at EPflex is conducted in a sterile clean room. Depending on the application, instruments made from various materials, such as platinum or tungsten, are used and coated to optimize their lubricity and visibility on X-ray machines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The series manufacturer, which supplies various medical facilities as an OEM manufacturer, boasts a portfolio of nearly 3,500 items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Challenge: Stable Delivery Capability Despite Process Complexity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>EPflex not only manufactures to order but also independently develops new manufacturing processes, having registered 57 patents to date. The company&#8217;s high level of innovation and positive order situation have driven strong growth. To meet this demand, EPflex plans to open a third building in Dettingen. However, new customers, new products, and new manufacturing processes have simultaneously increased the complexity of the company&#8217;s operations, pushing the previous scheduling system to its limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This complexity posed significant challenges, especially given the strict requirements of the medical industry. All manufacturing processes at EPflex are continuously monitored by relevant authorities, and all lots must be fully traceable. Additionally, customers have the right to audit at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The ISO 13485 standard for the manufacture of medical products, to which we are certified, plays an important role for us. Among other things, it includes the requirement to be able to deliver at any time. Efficient and high-performance planning and scheduling is therefore essential for us,&#8221; explains J\u00fcrgen Class, Head of Production Control at EPflex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"cite-item-wrap image-medium image-left\">\n<div class=\"cite-item-image\">\n<div class=\"cite-item-image-wrap\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dualis-it.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Portrait_Juergen-Claas_epflex_450x600px.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cite-item-content\">\n<div class=\"teaser-text space-bottom-small\">\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\"We have to process around 500 orders per month, totalling two to three million parts.

However, the dedicated solution for detailed planning, in use since 2010, could no longer meet the increasingly complex requirements. In 2016, EPflex searched the market for a new APS system and shortlisted three options. The decisive factor was which solution could best integrate into the existing process landscape. Given their successful long-term use of APplus, the decision-makers at EPflex leaned towards GANTTPLAN APS from DUALIS, a partner solution from Asseco that seamlessly integrates with the ERP system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>J\u00fcrgen Class explains: &#8220;We were convinced by both the functionality and user-friendliness of the solution. Many systems only visualize rough-cut planning from the ERP system. For us, this is not the detailed planning we need, which we now achieve with the DUALIS and Asseco system. Moreover, we can now rely on optimal interaction between ERP and APS.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dualis-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Thumbnail_GP-Anwenderbericht-EPflex.jpg\" alt=\"GANTTPLAN Use Case - EPflex\" class=\"wp-image-7156\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dualis-it.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Thumbnail_GP-Anwenderbericht-EPflex.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.dualis-it.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Thumbnail_GP-Anwenderbericht-EPflex-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.dualis-it.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Thumbnail_GP-Anwenderbericht-EPflex-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Selection of the product portfolio of EPflex Feinwerktechnik GmbH<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dualis-it.de\/en\/experience-live\/demo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Book Your Exclusive Live Demo!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In Practice: Flexible Planning Improves Responsiveness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After using a pilot version that ran parallel to the previous system for six months, the DUALIS and Asseco solution went live in May 2017. Currently, EPflex is primarily focusing on capacity planning, with other areas to follow step by step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Torsten Habelmann, Production Manager at EPflex, explains: &#8220;Adherence to delivery dates is essential in our industry. If customers have had negative experiences, it can quickly lead to a vicious cycle: orders that are not actually due until the future are placed earlier because customers \u2018plan\u2019 for the supposed delay from the outset. This means that we have to handle an unnecessarily higher volume of orders.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, inflexible scheduling repeatedly caused unwanted delays in production. With the new solution, contextual rescheduling is now easily achievable. It is immediately clear what further shifts a particular delay will cause, making it simple to devise the best possible alternative production process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The new system works very quickly. If necessary, we can create a new plan within half an hour. This has significantly improved our ability to react to unexpected problems in production. While in the past we could only reschedule once a day, we now have the option of rescheduling between five and ten times if necessary,&#8221; explains J\u00fcrgen Class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EPflex was able to significantly increase its delivery capacity with the help of the solution duo from DUALIS and Asseco.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"cite-item-wrap image-medium image-left\">\n<div class=\"cite-item-image\">\n<div class=\"cite-item-image-wrap\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dualis-it.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/person-dummy-450x600.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cite-item-content\">\n<div class=\"teaser-text space-bottom-small\">\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\"For the future, visualization and transparency will be crucial for us. We plan to evaluate throughput times more intensively and integrate them into the ERP system as KPIs. This will help us identify areas for improvement and provide a basis for more in-depth analysis to foresee and prevent issues. In the highly regulated medical industry, continuous self-optimization is essential for success.
