Cloud-native Plex MES from Rockwell Automation
will support growth plan to rapidly scale
Plex Systems, a Rockwell Automation company and a leader in
cloud-delivered smart manufacturing solutions, today announced
ZEVx, Inc. has selected Plex Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
to drive production of its electrification solutions. ZEVx builds
and designs battery electric power systems and data intelligence
for e-mobility applications. The selection of Plex comes on the
heels of a strategic partnership between ZEVx and Rockwell
Automation announced in April for the utilization of Vuforia Expert
Capture, a FactoryTalk Innovation Suite solution powered by PTC
that captures and shares knowledge digitally for rapid employee
training and onboarding.
By using Plex, a cloud-native and fully digital system, ZEVx
aims to automate its manual processes and improve data visibility,
accuracy, and reporting to support its aggressive growth plan. With
a need for strong quality and traceability capabilities, ZEVx chose
Plex MES to help ensure a high level of compliance to meet
certifications such as IATF and ISO.
“The addition of Plex MES as a part of our Rockwell Automation
collaboration will allow us to accelerate battery electric power
systems strategy,” commented Charles Maury, founder and chief data
officer, ZEVx. “Plex’s heritage in smart manufacturing technologies
for the automotive industry, including functionality related to
supplier and inventory management, were central to our selection.
The Plex technology is integral to ZEVx’s scalability and agility
on our path to becoming the leader in battery electric power
systems and data intelligence for e-mobility applications.”
“We are excited about the expanded collaboration with ZEVx for
MES and to see that our comprehensive offering of production
automation and management solutions is delivering increased value
to customers,” commented Luca De Ferrari, vice president,
Information Solutions, Americas at Rockwell Automation. “The
automation of traceability and quality processes enabled by Plex
MES will allow ZEVx to eliminate paper-based, time-consuming manual
processes while unlocking real-time decision making. With our
support, ZEVx is establishing a smart battery electric power
systems foundation which will help them achieve a competitive
advantage.”
