How authentig creates transparency and enables full control in production

ENGEL’s authentig Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is the answer to the growing demands of modern production environments. Whether it’s complete traceability, transparency across all shifts, or continuous process optimization - authentig delivers critical real-time data that empowers companies to make informed decisions.

In four short videos, ENGEL customers and partners share their experiences with authentig - from the system’s implementation to tangible results in day-to-day production.

What were the challenges before the introduction of authentig? In this video, ENGEL’s interview partners describe how challenging it used to be to access relevant information during night shifts and how authentig now enables improved information flow and in-depth process analysis. Traceability, especially in the automotive industry, has become increasingly important - one of the key drivers behind the decision to implement authentig.

Find out why authentig was chosen and what goals were associated with its introduction.

authentig is not a rigid system – it’s modular in structure, offering maximum flexibility. You can start with a solution tailored to your needs and expand it step by step as required. This allows the system to be perfectly adapted to individual requirements and future developments.

See how the modular design supports the path to digitalization – one step at a time.

With authentig, a large number of process parameters can be seamlessly tracked for each machine - anytime and order-specific. Process changes can be traced precisely, downtimes are time-stamped, and the machine status is visible in real time. The setup module, in particular, ensures that only approved data records are used - eliminating errors caused by incorrect settings.

What are the real benefits of the authentig production control software? The numbers speak for themselves: At Hagleitner, machine downtime was reduced by 7%, and planning time was cut by 15%. Thanks to intelligent limit monitoring, operators receive early warnings - long before the machine comes to a stop. Despite growing demands, scrap rates have remained stable.

At BIC, issues in the injection molding process are now resolved based on data-driven decisions rather than gut feeling. Shift supervisors can get a transparent overview of the past seven days of production in just 15 minutes. Irregularities in process stability are detected in real time, helping to prevent scrap.

Since implementing authentig, KROSCHU has connected 34 injection molding machines through the production management software. This enables the recording of operating and machine data and the automated evaluation of machines. The result: a 9% increase in OEE.
