Designing a Cloud-Based MES-SaaS Platform Model in Precision Machining

Smart manufacturing environments are spreading at home and abroad. As a result, SMEs are also recognizing the need for digital transformation. However, they are facing difficulties in introducing MES/ERP software due to the initial cost burden and lack of resources. Under these circumstances, this paper aims to design a cloud-based subscription MES platform that enables SMEs specializing in the precision machining industry to operate efficient production processes and improve productivity and competitiveness. To build a cloud-based subscription MES system, we collect and store manufacturing interlocking data based on the AAS standard and utilize data link sockets such as the EDC standard, which is an important factor in securing compatibility and integration between various systems. Therefore, we aim to design an MES-SaaS platform that enables SMEs to utilize MES and ERP software in line with the growth of the smart manufacturing environment.
