Visual Production of Household Appliances

 Challenge

At present, the increasingly fierce competition in the manufacturing industry forces manufacturers to improve productivity, efficiency, and product quality, and at the same time control costs to maintain an inexhaustible competitive advantage. The client, as a well-known domestic coffee machinery manufacturer, is also hard to avoid. However, no matter whether the oral communication or the paper instructions have brought different degrees of management costs and resource waste, and other series of difficulties to client. To this end, the client is determined to simplify and manage manufacturing operations with intelligent hardware equipment combined with factory intelligent production MES systems to improve factory production efficiency.

Common computer equipment is able to conduct operations, but it lacks the robustness to support an industrial manufacturing environment. When factory personnel often work in harsh environments, the instability of common equipment will not only lead to frequent interruptions in the production schedule, but also require continuous maintenance investment of enterprises. Only after professional design of durable industrial tablets can meet the requirements of long-term operation under extreme industrial conditions, to help client improve the quality and efficiency of the production line.

Solution

The P15R panel PCs were suggested due to their durable design and powerful processors.After weeks of rigorous field testing, the client finally chose the P15R panel pc as the management device to handle the daily tasks of the production line.

Over 60 P15R panel PCs were placed on the production line along with external card readers to record the production while collecting labor time for all workers. With the seamless integration of the P15R panel pc and the MES software system, the original paper-based manufacturing process and information silos have been broken. When workers use the ID card to log in, the standardized production instructions will be automatically delivered to the accurate workstation display terminal P15R through the MES system. 

At the same time, the on-the-job status and time of workers will be recorded and counted to the system from the moment they log in. Which help shortens the time spent on daily manual attendance records and subsequent wage settlement and avoids settlement disputes caused by human errors.
