Challenges in Industry Management

  1. Difficulty in ensuring quality: The quality of mechanical components is difficult to control consistently due to the multiple processing steps involved in the manufacturing process.
  2. Limitations of equipment and molds resulting in suboptimal production scheduling: The limitations of equipment and molds make production scheduling time-consuming, difficult and inefficient.
  3. Complex manufacturing processes: Multiple assembly and processing steps make it difficult to clearly track on-site production progress.
  4. Material control: The variety of materials supplied by suppliers and the difficulty in controlling the quality and inspection schedule of incoming materials.
  5. Tracking outsourced processing progress: Difficulty in confirming outsourced processing results in the need to spend manpower and resources to confirm the status of orders.

Industry Solutions

  • By binding product items with corresponding operation stations and setting the processing program for corresponding equipment through pre-production site supervisor
  • When the production batch begins, sMES requests the processing program code and sends it to the machine to read and process. 
  • This greatly reduces customer complaints, returns, and scrap caused by using the wrong processing program.

The implementation of the solution resulted in the following benefits

By reducing the number of work orders and production batch sizes, and implementing lean production methods:

  • The waiting time for production batch entry was reduced from 26.5 hours to 16.04 hours, a decrease of 39.4%. 
  • The waiting time for production batch exit was reduced from 37.53 hours to 9.89 hours, a decrease of 73.6%.
  • The on-time completion rate of work orders improved from 74.21% to 87.28%.
  • The order delivery rate increased from 40.41% to 87.28%.
  • The lead time for shipping was shortened from being delayed by two days to being completed 10 days earlier. The company is now prepared to handle the shipping process at any time, except for changes in customer delivery requirements.
