Not long ago, the idea of a true modular MES system seemed far-fetched at best. MES systems were thick solutions with interconnected and interdependent functionality. Whether commercial or homegrown solutions, these were usually incrementally built to fulfill a wide group of manufacturing system requirements, frequently tailored for specific segments.
Wikipedia defines modularity as "the degree to which a system's components may be separated and recombined. The meaning of the word, however, can vary somewhat by context".
That's right - it does vary by context. In the manufacturing world, modularity means the use of exchangeable components or parts in the fabrication gb b xjjafxv.
