Planned. Tracked. Automated. Analysed. Optimised. Understood.

LYNQ is reinventing MES (manufacturing execution system) software tailored to aerospace manufacturers and aerospace production, including aerospace parts and aerospace OEM manufacturers.

LYNQ MES is used as an indispensable tool in the aerospace industry, where precision, safety, and compliance are paramount.

MES in the aerospace industry.

MES enables streamlined production processes, enhanced quality control, improved resource utilisation, and increased visibility across the manufacturing operations. It supports compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements while promoting operational efficiency and continuous improvement.

  • Improve efficiency.
  • Reduce costs.
  • Minimise loss.

The aerospace industry’s manufacturing focus is on producing technologically advanced, high-performance, and safe aircraft, spacecraft, engines, and avionic systems. With the continuous research, innovation, and collaboration across disciplines that drive the industry’s manufacturing efforts, even the smallest cost savings and efficiency improvements can have a huge impact.

On average, an aerospace manufacturer of 50 resources (employees plus machines) could save $28,000 per month by using LYNQ MES. ROI calculator >>

Key features.

  1. Advanced planning and scheduling.

    Control complex production schedules, auto-schedule production, allocate resources for optimum productive hours and track the performance of your entire manufacturing operation against production targets. Advanced planning and data analysis tools for the aerospace industry. Plan >>

  2. Data collection.

    Collect data on the production line, how efficiently it is performing and identify where losses are occurring. Effective shop-floor data capture software enables a manufacturer to know exactly what is happening, in real-time, for end-to-end traceability of raw materials, components and assembly, improving defect detection and quality control at every step.  Track >>

  3. Automate production.

    With automatic data capture from machines, standardised workflows, accelerated business processes and smart quality control. Access and report on manufacturing data in the click of a button to streamline operations, work as productively as possible and reduce manual intervention. Automate >>

  4. Analyse data.

    Gain intelligent insight into your aerospace manufacturing data. Know exactly what is happening at every stage of production and be able to use this data to make process improvements; saving time and increasing production. Build reports with ease and view data dashboards on operations via any connected device. Analyse >>

  5. Optimise manufacturing.

    Gain tools to communicate more effectively via instant messaging. Move away from paper based systems with online jobs, online schedules and a plan that is accessible by everyone via laptops or tablets. Identify and address issues promptly with automatic alerts and notifications, connecting shop-floor employees with management. Optimise >>

Production rate.

Production rate.

The global industry has to manufacture more aircraft, quicker. Suppliers must keep up. This means adopting new, better technologies across the board – new materials, 5-axis machine tools, intelligent tooling, digital twins, augmented and virtual reality and training.

Suppliers have to step up planning and scheduling to optimise their capex and eliminate bottlenecks.

How do we automate our factory?
The environment is an aviation industry issue.

The environment is an aviation industry issue.

Aircraft create huge carbon emissions and are very visible, attracting a disproportionate amount of attention. They need to do more on pollution and be seen to do more.

Lightweighting of materials including higher composite material content and lighter but strong titanium alloys is one solution and hybrid-electric propulsion is a growing trend. This complexity puts more demand on manufacturing, which needs the best operations software to manage the complexity and higher volumes.

Safety first.

Safety first.

The higher complexity of producing aircraft with multiple materials and new propulsion systems in high volume in no way reduces the need to apply the highest safety standards in manufacturing.

Parts validation and certification is being helped by digital technologies, saving time by measuring and valuing parts within the manufacturing process rather than always at the end of line.

What is digital transformation?
SMEs must aim high to be prime suppliers.

SMEs must aim high to be prime suppliers.

To make validated parts in sufficient volume for the rates that aerospace primes need, small and medium sized firms need to invest in people, capex and processes. 

SMEs need technology, like modern MES systems and digital systems monitoring, to make the step to mid-sized champions and supply primes globally.

How to optimise processes.

“We look forward to continuing to work with LYNQ in the future. I would recommend LYNQ to any company.”
