YE DIGITAL Corporation (Headquarters: Kokurakita-ku, Kitakyushu; President: Yuji Tamai; hereinafter "YE DIGITAL") will launch the "Inter-process Transport Automation Package" for the manufacturing industry as part of its Warehouse Execution System (WES) "MMLogiStation" in the summer of 2026.
This package specializes in automating transport between processes in production plants. By carefully selecting and strengthening functions required at manufacturing sites, it supports productivity improvement and the reduction of onsite workload.
Warehouse Execution System (WES) "MMLogiStation"
In recent years, the manufacturing industry has faced serious labor shortages and diversifying production formats, making the efficiency and automation of inter-process transport a critical issue.
YE DIGITAL has previously supported the automation of transport processes for manufacturing customers by customizing the standard "MMLogiStation." However, due to increasing demand for solutions that can be implemented in a shorter period and are tailored to manufacturing sites, the company decided to offer the "MMLogiStation Inter-process Transport Automation Package" as a dedicated package with standard features necessary for the manufacturing industry.
YE DIGITAL's WES "MMLogiStation" has been adopted by many customers as a solution to support the automation of warehouse operations since its release in 2021.
Key features include:
- Packaging of warehouse operation-related systems, allowing for program-less start of use.
- Standardized plugins for interfaces with automation equipment from major manufacturers, enabling rapid implementation.
Functions Specialized for Transport Processes (Key Enhancements)
The "MMLogiStation Inter-process Transport Automation Package" includes standard functions necessary for inter-process transport in the manufacturing industry while reducing unnecessary features. Some of the enhanced functions are introduced below:
- Transport Sequence Control: Optimizes the flow of the entire process by controlling the transport sequence, which is crucial at production sites.
- Enhanced Security: Includes account restrictions and log management according to multiple management levels.
- Merging Control for Different Models on the Same Route: Controls AGVs from different manufacturers on the same route.
- Intersection (Signal) Control for Manned Forklifts and AGFs: Can coordinate with surrounding PLCs and equipment (shutters, signal towers).
Expected Effects of Implementation
The implementation of this package is expected to provide the following benefits:
- Shorter Implementation Lead Time: By standardizing common functions for the manufacturing industry, customization is minimized, and lead time is reduced.
- Deployment to Multiple Locations with the Same Package: The flexible configuration, which can handle different requirements at each location, reduces the effort required for system management and maintenance.
*WES environments are built for each location.
Since its founding in 1978, YE DIGITAL has supported manufacturing customers through business improvements utilizing IT technology.
Moving forward, the company will continue to contribute to further efficiency and productivity improvements at manufacturing sites by merging the know-how cultivated in warehouse automation with expertise in the manufacturing industry.
