The suite can be adapted to each company’s needs and third-party products can be integrated without difficulty.

BG – which stands for BEUMER Group – is the name for the company’s software suite for high-level computer systems. The suite’s modular structure allows users to adapt it to their machinery and equipment and add modules at any time in order to optimise their material flows.

The Beckum-based intra-logistics specialist also provides the BG Fusion interface, which displays process data, reports and machinery statistics for all parts of the program.

Users can call up data on their monitor without having to switch between applications. BG Fusion is fully scalable, meaning it can run on desktop PCs as well as mobile devices like tablets.

The left area of the interface displays important information in a compact form for all users. The main area is reserved for data relevant to the particular application.

Three different desktops are available. Users can store their individual settings so that they can go right to work with the same data when they log in again.

The user interface can also be switched between different languages.

The web-based interface runs on all current Windows operating systems. Users can export all data displayed on the screen to PDF or CSV files. A screenshot function is also included.

The BEUMER Group is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of conveying and loading equipment, filling, palletising and packaging equipment, and systems for sorting and distribution.
