Before contacting MCI Systems through, their Quality processes were all collected on paper and only reported historically after each day.

In association with Avery Weigh-Tronix, MCI Systems installed a Myrias Quality and Average Weight Checkweighing system that conformed to a number of world wide legislations including European and Japanese legislations. They had their old reports recreated within Myrias and these reports can be run for the desired time frame and then printed all within a matter of minutes, eliminating the tedious paper trail that they used to need to follow,saving them a lot of time and cost, and keeping all their legislative data within one system.

MCI Myrias software is a modular suite covering many aspects of production. Our integrated modules are available to record, control and report on every aspect of procurement, planning, production, quality control and despatch. MCI Myrias has a record of reducing costs in every field of application.
