GEA Codex Recipe Manager

Düsseldorf, Germany

What it is

GEA Codex® Recipe Manager is an MES software module for managing and executing master recipes in industrial production. Recipe definitions can include ingredients, access points and operating instructions, and the graphical system can create production records with recipe setpoints and measured values. A double-check process validates recipe changes against earlier versions. The module also tracks changes to recipe values, analyzes recipes and produces reports. Human-readable codes and RFID can identify materials for automated batch execution. Other listed capabilities include defining recipe views, interacting at PLC level and viewing manufacturing data across a company in real time. GEA Codex® Enterprise Connect transfers execution details, including process parameters and raw-material consumption, to ERP level. Its REST API, Database Messaging and XML-file interfaces exchange information with systems such as ERP, LIMS and WMS. The included Scheduler supports production timetabling, order priorities and manual or automatic batch splitting based on line size and availability. With defined rules, orders can be optimized for allergens, color or clean-in-place requirements. Pricing is available by quote request.
