DIGITALIZE YOUR MANUFACTURING
– FULLY INTEGRATED IN SAP
The challenges for manufacturing are more complex than ever: Global competition, short innovation cycles, and a rapid time to market. In addition, there are dispersed production sites and the customers’ demands for maximum quality of highly configurable products. Our holistic solutions for the digitalization and optimization of your manufacturing in SAP support you by meeting these challenges.
The use of digital data turns industrial processes upside down – as the mega trend of digitalization does not stop short of manufacturing. Nevertheless, insular solutions are still reality in many companies.
In particular, the handover from Engineering to Manufacturing is a challenge for some companies, as this is where several systems, data, and processes collide. This heterogeneous landscape complicates achieving consistent and flawless processes, as well as approaches for standardization. A manufacturing solution integrated into SAP is a powerful resource for meeting these challenges.

FACTORY CONTROL CENTER | FCTR
FCTR integrates CAM systems, manages all tool data within SAP, and integrates manufacturing planning into the SAP-aided product development process. Shop floor systems, such as tool presetters, warehouse lifts, and CNC machines are also integrated and receive the relevant data automatically from the SAP system.
Thus, subsequent processes such as the assessment of tool requirements or the provision of NC programs and compensation data for tool presetters can be managed consistently in SAP. FCTR is based on SAP standard objects, such as documents, material masters, bills of material, as well as equipment, routings, production resources, etc. and supports all order-related processes within manufacturing.
All relevant data is managed centrally in one system and is automatically provided, where it is needed.
