Abstract: | Enterprise management information system (EMIS) in Manufacturing CIMS Int egrating Platform (MACIP), refers to a computer system that manages the information for running an enterprise. A typ ical EMIS consists of a group of closely connected functions such as production planning, material management, accounting, quality management, etc. The EMIS exc h anges information with the CAD/CAPP system in the design department, and the sho p floor controller (SFC) in the manufacturing department, while the global infor mation system (GIS) of MACIP supplies the mechanism for information sharing with in the enterprise. This paper introduces the EMIS model for a typical manu facturing enterprise, then analyses the interface of the EMIS with the CAD/CAPP system and the SFC. A technical scheme for integrating the EMIS with the GIS is given. This scheme considers the integration of some MRPII systems in the marke t, and adopts advanced industrial standards to ensure its flexibility and reusab ility. |
