Thanks ,

i didnot make any comment, just i am very curiosity to know that secret and solution,i heard manufacturing is waste subject , i try to know that process , the example what you already explained in the blog and the reply what you have given is proving that it will take time to write about that one in detail.

so i am requesting & expecting that the next topic will be on this.

@fresher: Sorry, I don’t know exactly when. I am currently fully occupied with a project, and I have little time to spend on the blog, but it is one of the topics on top of my to-do list so you can expect it soon.

@Veeru: thanks for the comment and welcome! Industrial Equipment Manufacturing is the process of manufacturing equipment (machines, etc.) for other manufacturers. So, you have a huge printing machine, which is industrial equipment, which is manufactured somewhere – this is the industrial equipment manufacturing. It’s a usually a combination of process and discreet manufacturing, and is very complex because most of the industrial equipment is custom-designed, making the manufacturing true project management.

@aishik: Thanks for kind words! I’ll definitely try to cover more on these differences, and I’ll make sure to explain how to handle those in NAV.

@Steve B: yes, you’ve named some of the more difficult areas of process manufacturing which can’t really be addressed with discrete manufacturing tools. What you mention here is true about most of process industry verticals I worked with. I’ll try to give some useful insight in how to address those issues.

Thank you for dealing with this topic. I went from being controller in a process manufacturing company to NAV implementer and found it difficult to use this basically discreet manufacturing tool in a process environment. Multiple outputs in terms of cut lengths, highly variable scrap, particularly in the startup process were just some of the things in my old industry of plastic extrusion. Even the inputs could vary in chemical composition, which affects material needed to produce a given output.

I look forward to your next post on the subject.
