It is a low-cost, high-performance production scheduler. It is an eligible product for IT implementation subsidies.
Sakura Scheduler is a full-fledged production scheduler designed for small and medium-sized enterprises in discrete production environments that manage small quantities of diverse products. It performs optimization scheduling based on advanced scheduling theories at high speed, making it a simple yet powerful production scheduler. By aiming for overall optimization in scheduling, it improves the on-time delivery rate across the entire factory, shortens production lead times, and reduces setup times. Additionally, it supports flexible production environments that can enhance productivity and adopts a widely applicable generic production model (flexible job shop) that can be used without customization.

basic information
Since the 1980s, advanced scheduling theories based on meta-strategies such as Lagrangian relaxation (decomposition and adjustment) methods and genetic algorithms have been actively researched. Among these, Lagrangian relaxation (decomposition and adjustment) methods have been shown to be very powerful and effective for production scheduling. However, real production models are complex due to numerous constraints, and some cannot be formulated mathematically, which has prevented them from being practically applied as general-purpose scheduling logic. The Sacra Scheduler has successfully addressed this technical challenge and achieved practical implementation. It demonstrates its overall optimization power even as a standalone tool, and it can interface with other systems, such as MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) and MRP (Material Requirements Planning) systems, using familiar Excel formats (CSV format) for job and master input/output functions. Additionally, it is also capable of inputting and outputting jobs and masters in XML format, which has rapidly gained popularity in recent years. These features facilitate the integration of your company's core systems with the production scheduler.

Delivery Time
Applications/Examples of results
- Improvement of productivity indicators such as on-time delivery rate, production lead time, and total setup time. - Realization of dynamic scheduling to overcome variability such as machine failures and raw material shortages through frequent reflection of work performance. - Visualization of production plans and actual performance regarding whether deadlines can be met (deadline response), job input timing, discrepancies between plans and actuals, and machine workload. - Streamlining of production planning tasks to achieve optimal production plans with just a few button clicks. - Inventory reduction of parts and raw materials and efficiency in ordering tasks through synchronized ordering of parts and raw materials with the production plan. - Skill transfer in production planning by using parameters that create the optimal production plan for your company. While large companies with ample financial resources and abundant human resources may not face this issue, many small and medium-sized enterprises with limited resources are currently creating production plans manually using Excel. How about utilizing a simple, easy-to-implement, and low-maintenance scheduling tool like Sacra Scheduler to achieve the expected benefits mentioned above?
