MCL ERP MRP
MCL is a purpose-built ERP/MRP solution designed specifically for modern manufacturing environments, with powerful features tailored to the unique demands of the plastic injection moulding industry. It brings every stage of production under one system, giving manufacturers full visibility and control from the moment an order is placed to the final delivery.
With MCL, production planning becomes smarter and more predictable. The system manages moulding machine schedules, tool availability, material requirements, and cycle times with precision—ensuring the right resources are ready at exactly the right moment. Real-time data tracking allows manufacturers to monitor jobs as they run, maintain full traceability of materials and batches, and react instantly to any changes on the shop floor.
For plastic injection moulders, where accuracy, repeatability, and speed are everything, MCL simplifies the complexity. It helps forecast demand, optimise machine utilisation, reduce scrap, track tool maintenance, and manage customer-specific part data with ease. The result is a streamlined workflow that boosts efficiency, strengthens quality control, and ensures consistent, on-time production.
