YE DIGITAL Corporation (Headquarters: Kokurakita-ku, Kitakyushu City; President and Representative Director: Yuji Tamai; hereinafter "YE DIGITAL") will launch an "Inter-Process Transport Automation Package" for the manufacturing industry, based on its Warehouse Execution System (WES) "MMLogiStation," in the summer of 2026.

This package specializes in automating inter-process transport in production factories, supporting productivity improvement and reducing on-site workload by carefully selecting and enhancing functions required in manufacturing environments.

Warehouse Execution System (WES) "MMLogiStation"

Background: Growing Need for Inter-Process Transport Automation in Manufacturing

In recent years, the deepening labor shortage and diversification of production methods in the manufacturing industry have made 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 tailored to manufacturing sites that can be introduced in a shorter period, the company decided to offer the "MMLogiStation Inter-Process Transport Automation Package" as a dedicated package with essential manufacturing functions as standard.

WES "MMLogiStation" Capturing Warehouse Automation Needs

YE DIGITAL's WES "MMLogiStation" has been adopted by many customers as a solution to support warehouse operations automation since its release in 2021.

Key features are as follows:

●Packages warehouse operations-related systems, enabling use without programming

●Standardly equipped with plug-in interfaces for automation equipment from major manufacturers, achieving rapid deployment

Provided Functions Specialized for Transport Processes (Main Enhancements)

The "MMLogiStation Inter-Process Transport Automation Package" comes standard with functions necessary for inter-process transport in manufacturing and eliminates unnecessary functions. Some of the enhanced functions are introduced below:

●Transport Order Control:

Controls the transport order, which is crucial in production sites, to optimize the overall flow of processes.

●Enhanced Security:

Equipped with account restrictions according to multiple management hierarchies and log management.

●Control of Different Equipment Merging on the Same Route:

Controls AGVs from different manufacturers on the same route.

●Intersection (Signal) Control for Manned Forklifts and AGFs:

Can link with surrounding PLCs and equipment (shutters and signal towers).

Benefits of Implementation

The introduction of this package is expected to bring the following benefits:

●Reduced Implementation Lead Time

By standardizing common functions for manufacturing, customization is minimized, shortening lead times.

●Deployment to Multiple Sites with the Same Package

Flexible configuration to accommodate different requirements for each site reduces the effort required for system management and maintenance.

*WES environment is built for each site.

Since its establishment in 1978, YE DIGITAL has supported manufacturing customers through business improvement utilizing IT technology.

Moving forward, we will continue to contribute to further efficiency and productivity improvement in manufacturing sites by integrating the know-how cultivated in warehouse automation with our expertise in manufacturing.
