Enterprise resource planning, manufacturing execution and warehouse-management interfaces are application-specific options. APT defines the required data flow, line connectivity and qualification documentation with the customer before implementation.
System configuration, inspection capability and achievable output depend on the product, handling conditions and agreed application requirements. APT evaluates each application to define the appropriate inspection, integration and qualification scope.
