Excellent ERP · Industry
Run plastics and packaging manufacturing — PET bottles and jars, injection-moulded parts, plastic cases and enclosure assemblies down to mobile-phone bodies, adhesive tapes and packaging materials — on one ERP: mould- and cavity-wise production, granule and regrind accounting, machine-cycle output, multi-component assembly BOMs and true per-part costing.
Built for plastics & moulding
The same manufacturing engine — planning, BOM, quality, costing — applied to the mould, machine and material realities of plastics and packaging production.
Output is planned and recorded per mould and per cavity/shot, giving a direct view of mould productivity and cavity-level variance across every production run.
Production is captured per machine and shift with cycle counts, so you can compare machine performance and identify slow cycles that erode throughput.
Resin and granule are issued per job with standard quantities, and actual consumption is recorded so material variances are visible job by job.
Runner and reject regrind is recovered, booked back into inventory and tracked as a reusable material, keeping resin cost honest and waste visible.
Case, enclosure and multi-part products are managed with full multi-level BOMs covering moulded parts, inserts, hardware and bought-out components.
Moulding and assembly stages are planned together from the order book and forecast, with MRP netting requirements across the full BOM in one run.
Dimensional and visual quality checks are recorded in-process and at final inspection, with rejection capture that feeds back into true output and scrap reporting.
Granule price, machine time and cycle cost are rolled up into per-part cost, giving you an accurate manufacturing cost for every item produced.
Why it matters
Plastics manufacturing lives on mould performance, resin economics and cycle efficiency — Excellent ERP keeps all three visible so nothing is absorbed into variance.
Machine- and mould-wise output shows where capacity and cavities are won or lost, so tooling and scheduling decisions are grounded in real production data.
Granule consumption and regrind tracking keep resin cost honest, so the gap between standard and actual material usage is visible on every job.
Granule, machine time and cycle cost combine into accurate per-part costing, giving you the real manufacturing cost to price and manage margin confidently.
FAQ
Yes. Excellent ERP holds mould-wise and cavity-wise production records, so each job is planned against a specific mould and the output — good parts, rejects and regrind — is recorded per shot and per cavity. This gives you a clear picture of which moulds are performing, where cavities are under-producing, and how actual output compares to the planned shots for that mould.
