Frequently Asked Questions / FAQ

General

QLECTOR LEAP enhances your MES and ERP. MES serves as the data source for building and maintaining the digital twin in QLECTOR LEAP.

There are two ways to implement QLECTOR LEAP: a) a standalone APS augmented with machine learning, or b) adding value to any APS by refining and maintaining master data.

QLECTOR LEAP uses proprietary artificial intelligence and knowledge graph technology to automatically build and maintain a data-driven digital twin of production.

Typically, it takes two to six months.

Digital Twin

QLECTOR LEAP uses the digital twin to refine and maintain master data, create realistic plans and schedules, and develop various production scenarios.

The data source is your MES and ERP.

The automatic creation of the digital twin by QLECTOR LEAP is a matter of hours.

The digital twin in QLECTOR LEAP learns automatically and grows with the company. It automatically considers new production lines, new products, and realization.

Production guiding

QLECTOR LEAP facilitates the management of key resources on the shopfloor: plan, machines, tools, and workforce.

QLECTOR LEAP can use its own graphical interface or be integrated with the HR module in ERP or MES.

Maintenance scheduled in MES or ERP can be included in simulations and production scheduling.

Optimization

QLECTOR LEAP uses AI to learn and maintain specifics of processes and workflows from historical data. It uses realistic cycle times, scrap, downtime, and cleaning/setup matrices.

QLECTOR LEAP uses a set of parameters (e.g., planning horizon, frozen period) to run thousands of simulations and criteria (e.g., tool changes, stock level, delays) and select the most optimal one.

With QLECTOR LEAP, you can compare various scenarios and make informed decisions based on your company’s KPIs, such as delays, stock value, and equipment utilization.

QLECTOR LEAP IN REAL-TIME

Make your data work for you!

QLECTOR LEAP uses historical data and artificial intelligence to forecast production and suggest optimal measures when unplanned events occur.

With QLECTOR LEAP, we have digitally mapped every process within our company, revolutionizing our operations. This allows us to swiftly and efficiently formulate our production plan, complete with auxiliary workstations. The true game-changer lies in the plan's automatic updates. Simultaneously, all subsidiary processes remain informed of any modifications

By bidding farewell to a multitude of Excel files once essential for production planning, we not only declutter but also reclaim valuable time. The era of manual updates is now behind us.
I wholeheartedly recommend Qlector Leap to those who have yet to establish a systematic production planning system and still rely on Microsoft programs. The tediousness of handling such files and their susceptibility to errors can now become a thing of the past

QLECTOR LEAP has enabled significant progress in production plan optimization, as it learns from historical data, optimizes the plan, and provides more optimal suggestions for planners and production.

The most useful functionalities include real-time inventory overview, scheduling of workers and tool changes, and a user-friendly experience for planners, who receive a Gantt chart and a real-time overview of weekly realization. Any changes made to the plan in SAP by the planner are immediately visible in LEAP, allowing us to see when we will have reconfigurations and reduces tool change time.
The condition for using QLECTOR LEAP is well-organized data. With this condition met, LEAP operates with great precision, which is why I would recommend it to other manufacturing companies.

QLECTOR LEAP has enabled the automation of planners' work, faster response to changes in production planning, and management of a larger number of machines.

The results are currently evident in shorter inventory lead times for binding unfinished production and semi-finished goods, where we observe a 10% improvement. I would also highlight the expertise and agility of the Qlector team in terms of understanding and adapting to our production planning peculiarities. Domel follows modern trends in digitization, which is why QLECTOR LEAP seamlessly integrates into the ERP and MES system and is certainly one of the AI integrated APS solutions worth exploring.
