ProLeiS: The MES solution for mold and die manufacturing
ProLeiS is MES software for mold and die manufacturing. Our experts have specially tailored the planning and control functions to the requirements of medium-sized manufacturing companies and single-part manufacturing. The MES software is modular, adapts to company-specific processes, and maps them digitally from end to end.
With an MES (MES = manufacturing execution system), companies can improve manufacturing processes and increase manufacturing capacity through efficient planning, control, and evaluation of manufacturing orders.
Manufacturing processes have to include and coordinate any experts, machines, and suppliers to ensure all requirements regarding budgets or quality and deadlines are met. ProLeiS MES provides the software platform to achieve this.
Since 1999, ProLeiS MES software development has been tightly aligned with the needs of automotive manufacturers—especially mold and die manufacturers—and it has closely followed research. This allows us to stay on top of the latest trends while also meeting the ever-increasing demands of the mold and die manufacturing industry.
With ProLeiS MES, you can optimize resource utilization, manufacture on time, and reduce costs
SimpleControl all manufacturing processes with templates in a single software systemTransparentAccess standardized and up-to-date data from all areas—from the executive level to the shop floorEfficientOptimize resource utilization and manufacture on time with controlled, automated processesFuture-proofUse digitalized, networked manufacturing, optimize subsequent projects and benefit from continuously refined softwareEfficient single-part manufacturing with an MES system...
...PLANNING
Pre-planning gives you an initial overview of the required time, resources, and deadlines.
The backbone of all manufacturing planning is the bill of materials. Once it has been imported, manufacturing managers use it to plan orders—from data input to equipment assembly.
...CONTROL
For better manufacturing control, ProLeiS also integrates information from other existing systems for procurement, tools, logistics, and NC programs for optimal job management.
For better workflow control, the user sees the next work steps for each resource. A release system ensures the correct processing sequence.

...EVALUATION
Feedback from manufacturing in the form of real-time data ensures an accurate overview of the status of manufacturing. It also enables fast responses to unscheduled events.
ProLeiS then generates statistics and provides key manufacturing performance indicators for evaluation.
In this way, ProLeiS improves transparency in manufacturing and increases the profitability of the entire company.

We’re currently only using ProLeiS for our on-site manufacturing. We’d also like to use it for central management of the orders we place with partner companies because we think this could be handled more efficiently with ProLeiS.

No matter whether it's a deadline change, a last-minute order or the failure of a machine – with just a few mouse clicks in the MES system, we get an overview and can give the customer a clear answer.Fabian Schmittlein, Process planner at Koller Formenbau GmbH
Nobody wants to go back to how things were before ProLeiS. The system quickly provides us with all the data we need and enables us to respond fast and flexibly to short-term challenges. With ProLeiS, we’re also laying a solid foundation for our automation, which we will be taking on soon.
Ralf Hesener, Head of Die Engineering at Gedia, GermanyWith the help of Tebis and ProLeiS, our machines are now operating at 90 percent capacity. We now need only three to four weeks for machining operations that used to take six to eight weeks.

What is MES software?
Companies use MES (Manufacturing Execution System) software to improve their manufacturing processes and increase manufacturing capacity through efficient planning, control, and evaluation of manufacturing orders. The key is that everyone works in a single system that actively supports them carrying out their tasks.
What data sources does MES software draw on?
The MES uses business management information from an ERP system as well as manufacturing-related data from CAX and PDM systems.
Which areas of a company benefit from MES software?
Shop: Manufacturing designers and NC programmers work with current digital data, which the machine operators receive directly on the machines. The workflow is coordinated and stored in the MES software.
Manufacturing managers: The MES software provides them with a detailed overview of processes, status information, and material use in real time. They can respond quickly and specifically to faults and changes. They can reliably and effectively plan new orders.
Business management: The MES software gives them important key figures for efficiency control. Continuous evaluationsService: Our MES Software Team for you
In addition to consulting, we also offer demonstration meetings on site. Because ProLeiS can be customized in many ways, we use the meetings to learn about your manufacturing processes and manufacturing environment.
Along with our consulting team, we develop an evaluation order that details the initial scenarios and ProLeiS modules that are appropriate for you.
Our service also includes:
- Implementation, training and support
- Support and personal contacts
- Expansion modules
- Practical ongoing development of the software
