Today’s e-Commerce systems are applying pressure on the manufacturing industry. Shorter lead times, smaller production runs, just-in-time inventory and build-to-order are all manufacturing operations’ nightmares. Worse, with ERP, CRM, APS and SCM, each application provides significant content but it is very difficult to make them all work together. The Manufacturing Execution System is the glue that turns all the pieces of the puzzle into one solid solution. Manufacturing Execution System accomplishes this by becoming the source of real-time production/fulfillment data and the central data source. Manufacturing Execution System applications effectively fall into the following areas: _ Enterprise system integration _ Production tracking w/genealogy _ Real-time Inventory Management _ Manufacturing operations management * (ERP - enterprise resource management, CRM - customer relationship management, APS - advanced planning and scheduling, SCM - supply chain management).

According to the characteristics of manufacturing execution system and transmission manufacturing industry (MES) demand, the MES software architecture based on OPC Technology, establishment of real-time visualization of the gearbox assembly process based on workflow, real-time production process tracking, real-time and interactive technology of PLC framework. The system can meet the requirements of mixed production line, guiding device, realize the flexible production. The development of MES system has been applied in a transmission line and stable operation.

Abstract Compaired with mart manufacturing and digital manufacturing, virtual manufacturing is a more advanced mode, which is more flexible, more inexpensive and more suitable for modern competitive society. No matter what type of manufacturing, Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is necessary and plays a key role. So this paper focuses on the MES in virtual manufacturing. MES serves as a bridge to connect the upper planning layer and the control layer of the factory. It has at least 8 functions, including data collection, production process management, human resource management, workpieces tracking, production planning and scheduling, quality control, documentation system and maintenance management. As a typical virtual manufacturing enterprise, the company A is chosen to be introduced, including the background, composition of MES and implementation of MES.

Die Aufgaben von Manufacturing Execution Systems werden in Industrie 4.0 weiter wachsen, hin zum übergreifenden Betriebsmanagement. Ein solches Manufacturing Operations Management ist ein wesentlicher Bestandteil eines Industrie-4.0-basierten Produktionssystems. Die für heutige MES definierten Funktionen und Interaktionsmechanismen müssen daher für Industrie 4.0 durch Definition von entsprechenden Teilmodellen und Diensten aufbereitet und in interoperabler Form bereitgestellt werden. Der Beitrag motiviert und diskutiert eine solche Ableitung von Industrie-4.0-konformen Teilmodellen und Diensten auf Basis der IEC/EN 62264.
