Fertigungsdaten auch mobil erfassen und auswerten: Smart MES Applications (SMA) sind ein Set von Apps für SmartPhones und Tablet-PCs, das sowohl Funktionen von Daten­erfassungs­terminals als auch von MES-Anwendungen zur Planung, Auswertung und Information vereinigt und mobil zur Verfügung stellt. Dabei integrieren sich SMA nahtlos in die weit verbreitete MES-Lösung HYDRA und decken alle produktionsnahen Bereiche ab. Smart MES Applications sind allerdings mehr als nur MES-Apps: Beim Erfassen, Auswerten und Darstellen nutzen sie die gleichen Mechanismen wie die bewährten HYDRA-Office Clients und HYDRA-Shopfloor Clients. Durch das ganzheitliche Konzept entstehen keine neuen Schnitt­stellen.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: KRONE Sales at every 5 weeks against SMA's every 27 months. SMA's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
