Opcenter\u2122 Execution Discrete (EX DS) 2507 software, which is part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, the comprehensive and integrated portfolio of software, hardware and services, is designed to meet the needs of industries that execute sequential discrete manufacturing functions, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Automotive tier suppliers<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Aerospace and defense tier suppliers<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Energy and utilities<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Industrial machinery<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Heavy equipment<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- White goods and home appliances<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Complex parts manufacturing and assembly<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Additive manufacturing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
By using Opcenter EX DS you can leverage specialized out-of-the-box (OOTB) functions for complex assembly manufacturing, job shop environments (high complexity, low volume) and automated repetitive manufacturing industries (configurable products, high volume).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Opcenter Execution Discrete 2507<\/strong> can be installed directly or as an update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This release includes:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

- Containment<\/strong>: Thanks to the new\u00a0Containment\u00a0<\/strong>feature, when the material tracking units, which have issues that prevent them to be used in the production, are identified, they can be easily isolated from the production itself so that it is possible to either fix them or reintroduce them in the production backlog (for example, thanks to a rework process) or definitely remove them (for example, thanks to a scrap process).
The integration with\u00a0Opcenter Intelligence Traceability Application<\/strong>\u00a0allows the quality manager to have a clear understanding of how the production is proceeding so that he\/she can easily pinpoint those production items that present issues and, thanks to the genealogy capability, also quickly identify all the related production items.
Once the non-conforming production items have been identified, a\u00a0Containment Request\u00a0<\/em>is raised in order to isolate these items from the production.
Opcenter Execution Discrete\u00a0is able to import the incoming\u00a0Containment Request<\/em>\u00a0and mark the involved material tracking units as\u00a0In Containment\u00a0<\/em>so that they cannot proceed any further in the production.
All information related to the imported request is saved in\u00a0Opcenter Execution Discrete\u00a0as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/08\/OCEXDS_1-1024x550.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt is also possible to cancel a\u00a0Containment Request\u00a0<\/em>from the\u00a0Opcenter Intelligence Traceability Application<\/strong>, in this case as well,\u00a0Opcenter Execution Discrete\u00a0is able to import the incoming\u00a0Containment Release\u00a0<\/em>and update the related\u00a0Containment Request<\/em>\u00a0accordingly and release the material tracking units from the\u00a0In Containment<\/em>\u00a0status so that they can be restored in the production process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

- Dedicated low-code UI app for manufacturing in all production contexts<\/strong>: As of this release, the\u00a0\u00a0Opcenter Execution Discrete Manufacturing\u00a0App has been provided to satisfy the needs of all 5 production types (that is, Serialized, FlexibleSerialized, FullQuantity,\u00a0TransferBatch and FlexibleBatch production), all in one place, rather than having to navigate between the\u00a0Opcenter Execution Discrete Complex Manufacturing\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0Opcenter Execution Discrete Repetitive Manufacturing\u00a0Apps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

- Hybrid scenario englobing Opcenter Execution Process: <\/strong>As of this version, it is possible to take advantage of a hybrid scenario in which both Opcenter Execution Discrete and Opcenter Execution Process reside on the same host and concur in an overall production process:\u00a0 in this case,\u00a0the same plant employs a batch or semi-finished material produced via Opcenter Execution Process to manufacture a final product by way of\u00a0 Opcenter Execution Discrete .<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
