Extension module 2
axxalon plan integration
Automated, optimization-based order scheduling powered by axxalon plan.

Extension module 2 connects axxalon flow to axxalon plan, our APS engine — bringing automated, optimization-based scheduling to your shop floor.
Automated planning, minimal lead times
axxalon plan assigns and sequences orders automatically, aiming for the shortest achievable lead times while respecting available capacity. It weighs priorities, due dates, interlinking and sub-assembly lead times all at once.
Capabilities and efficiencies
Describe what each resource can do with capabilities — the skills or equipment an operation needs — and give each resource an efficiency factor. axxalon plan then schedules against realistic run times and only ever assigns work to a resource that can actually perform it, choosing among alternatives to keep the plan feasible.
Bottleneck optimization
Built-in optimization tools find and relieve bottlenecks across all operations, high-frequency planning keeps the schedule current, and results arrive in minutes — at a scale no manual planning can match.
A frozen zone you control
Lock a user-defined ‘frozen zone’ so the near-term plan stays stable where it needs to be, while everything beyond it stays free to re-optimize as reality changes.
