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).

The digital twin (DT) is undergoing an increase in interest from both an academic and industrial perspective. Although many authors proposed and described various frameworks for DT implementation in the manufacturing industry context, there is an absence of real-life implementation studies reported in the available literature. The main aim of this paper is to demonstrate feasibility of the DT implementation under real conditions of a production plant that is specializing in manufacturing of the aluminum components for the automotive industry. The implementation framework of the DT for engine block manufacturing processes consists of three layers: physical layer, virtual layer and information-processing layer. A simulation model was created using the Tecnomatix Plant Simulation (TPS) software. In order to obtain real-time status data of the production line, programmable logic control (PLC) sensors were used for raw data acquisition. To increase production line productivity, the algorithm for bottlenecks detection was developed and implemented into the DT. Despite the fact that the implementation process is still under development and only partial results are presented in this paper, the DT seems to be a prospective real-time optimization tool for the industrial partner.

Abstract.As a pillar industry of the national economy, manufacturing is the centralized embodiment of the international competitiveness. Manufacturing industry in china has developed quickly and gotten lots of achievements in recent years. Nevertheless, compared with the developed countries, we still have great gaps, such as the improper ratio of the light and heavy industry,the lacking ability of market research and technical innovation, especially the out-dated concept of management which hinder the development of the manufacturing industry in our country seriously. Nowadays, the most widely used real-time system of management in manufacturing is the Manufacturing Execution system(MES for short). MES is a kind of production management technology and real-time information system facing manufacturing workshop,also is the management information system facing the workshop between the management system at the top and the control system at the bottom. Mobile computing is a kind of new arisen technology at the basis of the rapid development of mobile communication, the Internet, database, distributed computing technology and so on. Mobile computing technology will make the computer or other information intelligent terminal equipments transfer data and share resources in wireless environment.

Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is one of the crucial technologies that realizing the information integration for the enterprise, and its function modeling is the base of MES design and implementation. Basis on the analysis of the business process in mechanical blanking workshop and the functional requirements of MES system, the IDEF0 method was adopted to construct the function model of MES system oriented to mechanical blanking workshop, and a detailed description of the function modules and their relationship was given, which laid the foundation for the software development of the MES system.
