AI-based Production Scheduler Delivers Scale with Practimum-Optimum™ Algorithm
High Point, N.C., July 9, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Plataine, a leading provider of AI-based optimization solutions for advanced manufacturing, proudly announces a groundbreaking achievement in exceptional scale of scheduling operations with its Practimum-Optimum™ algorithm. The AI-based Production Scheduler sets new records for fully automatic, optimized manufacturing scheduling in large scale and complex real-life scenarios.
Plataine's Practimum-Optimum™ Scheduler routinely handles demand sets with over 10,000 tasks, generating optimal schedules completely automatically. This scale and performance specifically stand out with complex operations involving multiple production lines, special machines such as autoclaves, multiple tool types and variable raw materials, as well as human capacity considerations and shift structures for the various resources. All these elements are connected by a complex set of operational requirements and constraints.
Compared to the majority of currently available scheduling products that max out at hundreds of tasks in fully automatic mode, Plataine's Scheduler offers a unique value proposition, allowing Plataine customers to meet both short term and long term goals. By supporting long terms scenarios, we enable our customers to make strategic decisions on staffing, equipment procurement, and supply chain management, resulting in on-time delivery while resolving potential capacity issues.
Plataine's breakthrough in large scale scheduling was enabled by innovative machine-self-learning mechanisms that are integrated into the Practimum-Optimum™ algorithm. By learning patterns in the scheduling space, they enable focusing on the most promising areas of high-quality schedules, thus significantly accelerating the convergence to the optimal schedule presented to the user.
Recognizing that mathematically optimal schedules are not always practically optimal, Plataine's Scheduler allows users to request changes to 'practicalize' the schedule. Leveraging unsupervised machine learning algorithms, these micro changes are integrated into the holistic optimal schedule in a way that minimizes the degradation of the macro-goal scores.
"The daily, weekly, and monthly schedules are the pivot of any manufacturing organization," says Avner Ben-Bassat, President and CEO of Plataine. "With our innovative AI-based Practimum-Optimum™ Scheduler, we offer the most advanced, high-scale software for creating optimal and practical schedules that ultimately affect both the top and bottom lines, as well as on-time delivery. We are proud our customers are leveraging this breakthrough technology for both short-term tactical scheduling and long-term strategic planning".
With this latest innovation, Plataine continues to lead the way in delivering cutting-edge solutions that drive efficiency, productivity, and profitability in advanced manufacturing. The combination of AI-driven optimization and practical adaptability results in optimal schedules that are valid for production, setting a new standard in manufacturing scheduling.
