An application of Industry 4.0 methods to the production of packaging films is presented. The production planning issues that are addressed often include contrasting objectives and strategies between customer's service and production optimization. We present an Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) tool that allows the decision maker to automatically generate and chose among a wide range of differently optimized scenarios. The vast amount of different results is analyzed and presented to the decision maker, using advanced data analytics techniques in order to put him/her in the condition to rapidly take an aware and solidly supported decision.

Abstract
An application of Industry 4.0 methods to the production of packaging films is presented. The production planning issues that are addressed often include contrasting objectives and strategies between customer's service and production optimization. We present an Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) tool that allows the decision maker to automatically generate and chose among a wide range of differently optimized scenarios. The vast amount of different results is analyzed and presented to the decision maker, using advanced data analytics techniques in order to put him/her in the condition to rapidly take an aware and solidly supported decision.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
