Flexible MES+ that evolves with your business

AROLINK® MES+ digitally mirrors your factory. Materials follow a digital trail through production, where data is collected, validated and checked until shipment. The result is full transparency, high product safety and better decision-making.

Better data,

Better quality

better traceability

better efficiency

Better product quality

fewer errors

less shrinkage

Low risk

AROLINK® can be implemented in stages, starting with the most important processes and expanding when it makes sense. This ensures a low-risk implementation without disrupting daily operations.

 

Flexibility and scalability

AROLINK® grows with the factory and can be customized when requirements or size change. You can start small and build from there, without having to change systems along the way.

 

Connected production

AROLINK® talks to ERP, machines, equipment and other IT systems to avoid duplicate entries and isolated data. It provides a coherent data flow throughout the factory.

 

Strategic gains

With AROLINK® factory data is collected and managed in one place. This provides valid decision-making, better traceability, higher product safety and optimal resource utilization.

Click through the seven steps and see what challenges AROLINK® solves

01. Raw material reception

Fresh strawberries, ingredients and packaging arrive from different suppliers and are automatically registered in AROLINK® with data such as harvest date, origin, SSCC number, supplier and delivery notes.

AROLINK® immediately validates the information and detects immediately if something is missing or incorrect.

After approved validation, AROLINK® shows where to place the goods – for example, strawberries are sent directly to cold storage and the location is updated in real-time.

02. Purification

When production starts, AROLINK® shows what raw materials and ingredients are needed. The operator is guided directly to the specific strawberries in the warehouse. AROLINK® has already verified that the strawberries are organic and approved for the production in question.

Inventory is updated in real-time – so you always have a full overview of consumption and remaining quantities.

The purification system automatically knows which purification program to use and gives the operator step-by-step instructions on quantities, ingredients and process.

03. Frost storage

Once the strawberries are cleaned, they are moved to frozen storage. The operator registers temperature data in AROLINK®. AROLINK® checks if the temperature is valid. Quantities, item numbers and locations are automatically registered.

The cleaned strawberries are used for various productions at the factory. AROLINK® keeps track of traceability data regardless of which processes and finished products the strawberries go to.

04. Boiling

A quantity of cleaned and frozen strawberries are retrieved from the frozen storage and transported for cooking. Here they are cooked together with sugar, which is also taken from the warehouse and has full traceability in AROLINK ®.

The operator follows AROLINK®‘s Instructions on sequence, time, quantities and temperature – everything is pre-defined for this particular batch. The factory has introduced a critical control point for temperature. If it deviates from the set tolerances,AROLINK® immediately sends a notification to the quality department so that action can be taken quickly and correctly.

05. Mixing

AROLINK® guides the operator through a digital recipe, ensuring that the right ingredients and quantities are used in the correct order.


AROLINK® automatically notifies the mixer which program to use for this particular mix. Recording on the go AROLINKrecords important process data such as start and stop times, stirring speed, temperature and who performed the action.
All data is stored and linked to the batch – ready for documentation, analysis or traceability.

06. Labeling

The finished mixture is automatically filled into glass jars. AROLINK® ensures that every jar, box and pallet is labeled correctly – with the right information, in the right format.


Among other things, the labels contain a unique SSCC code that is automatically registered in AROLINK®. This makes it possible to trace each pallet all the way back to the batch and the raw materials it is made of. This ensures full documentation and traceability all the way out of the factory – right down to the palletlevel.

07. Shipping

When the products are packed and ready, AROLINK registers AROLINKautomatically records their location in the warehouse as well as expiration date and other relevant data.

AROLINK® provides a full digital overview of finished goods – including which products are in stock, where they are and when they expire.

Time-consuming audits

At the marmalade factory records AROLINK® records everything from raw material reception to the last lid. When audit day arrives, all documentation is gathered in one place – with full traceability and overview.

What happened when? Who approved what?
Everything is documented. This makes it easy to show that quality and food safety are in order – every time.

Paper chaos in production

Helping at the jam factory AROLINK® helps operators keep track of data without having to write everything down on paper. AROLINK® digitizes the daily records – such as temperatures, weight or process start – so the data is automatically collected and easily accessible later. It saves time, minimizes errors and makes everyday life easier on the floor.

Manual marking

Read more

Instead of entering everything manually and wrestling with the printer, AROLINK AROLINK® does the labeling for the operator. When containers, boxes or pallets of jam need to be marked during production, AROLINK AROLINK® automatically ensures that the information is ready.

  • The operator chooses the batch -. AROLINKfills in the rest

  • The right data is sent directly to the printer

  • Apply the label – quickly and correctly

No duplication of effort. No errors.
The operator scans AROLINK® does the rest.
