Benefits of our System
Recipe Formulation
System Features
Recipe BoM & Definition
The Emydex recipe BoM & definition controls standard batch sizes, ingredients, quantities/UoM, min/max tolerances as well as sequencing and substitutions for the recipe. Recipes can contain sub-recipes if required.
Recipe Planning
Plan your production using the Emydex recipe production planning system. This allows customers to plan based on standard batch sizes, custom batch sizes or a calculated batch size based on one of the raw materials. Plans can also be made based on sales orders that are either entered directly into Emydex of received from the ERP system.
Recipe Blending
The Emydex recipe blending form provides users with an intuitive interface to control the inputs of the recipe. They are able to easily see the progress of each ingredient and ensures that operators follow recipe definitions for consistency. Terminals can have multiple scales connected to weigh different ingredients.
Labelling
The Emydex packing terminals can label work in progress (WIP) or finished goods from the recipe batch, maintaining traceability throughout the process. This allows customers to capture the output of the batch for traceability and yield reporting and will also create inventory items in the Emydex warehouse management system.
Job Processing
Customers are able to easily set up jobs for the various processes within the factory. This allows customers to scan into a work order & Job and produce a product from this which allows customers to maintain traceability and report on yields and efficiencies. E.g Tumbling, smoking, filleting, brining etc
