Rockwell Automation: Finite Scheduler Provides a Smarter Way to Manage Manufacturing Production Schedules

March 5, 2024

Rockwell Automation introduces Finite Scheduler, an update to its software portfolio to help customers modernize their production scheduling with reliable and responsive finite capacity capabilities.

Utilizing data from the manufacturing process, this software update was built to improve scheduling accuracy, increase throughput and drive on-time delivery.

Designed by global providers in digital transformation and industrial automation, Finite Scheduler goes beyond Material Requirements Planning (MRP) systems and considers additional factors that influence manufacturers’ production operations. Unlike with homegrown solutions and spreadsheets, the software can keep up with frequent changes and provide more accurate data than manual compilations.
