Transforming Manufacturing Industries with Infor EAM

Understanding Manufacturing Industries

Manufacturing industries are essential sectors that involve the production of goods utilizing various processes like human labor, automation, chemical processing, and tooling. These industries encompass fabrication, processing, and the preparation of products, generally starting from raw materials and culminating in finished goods for distribution through B2C or B2B channels.

Types of Manufacturing Industries

There are diverse types of manufacturing industries such as industrial manufacturing, automotive manufacturing, consumer electronics manufacturing, chemical manufacturing, and food and drink manufacturing. Each sector has its specific focus and requirements in the production chain.

ERP Solutions for Different Manufacturing Types

Infor EAM offers ERP software tailored for discrete and process manufacturing. For discrete manufacturing, the emphasis is on functionalities that streamline production processes and offer visibility throughout the manufacturing pipeline, catering to industries like industrial manufacturing, aerospace & defense, automotive, high tech & electronics, and construction & engineering. On the other hand, ERP solutions for process manufacturing are designed to handle formula or recipe processing efficiently and have integrated product development tools, benefiting chemical, food & beverage industries, and others.

Process vs. Discrete Manufacturing

Process manufacturing involves producing a blend of ingredients that are indistinguishable and are distributed in a specific quantity or volume. Conversely, discrete manufacturing yields distinct objects that are individually distributed or sold. The choice between process and discrete manufacturing hinges on the nature of the end products and the production process involved.

Process and Discrete Manufacturing Industries

Process manufacturing is categorized into batch processing and continuous processing, generating predetermined outputs or dynamic volumes, suitable for sectors such as chemical suppliers, food and beverage, nutrition, pharmaceuticals, and oil & gas. In contrast, discrete manufacturing encompasses industries like automotive, furniture, toys, tech, electronics, clothing, and machinery, focusing on producing tangible, separate products for the market.
