Monitor and improve the efficiency of production processes.
Challenge:
The company is engaged in the production of aircraft parts. The parts are manufactured from the stage of mechanical processing through galvanic processes to assembly. The company has 6 measuring machines. CMM measuring machines with Reinshaw controllers are connected to computers. The company has an impact on the planning of production and the timeliness of shipment.
The challenge is to refine existing processes and implement new ones to meet customer needs. A system is needed to assign finished and semi-finished products to the appropriate measuring machines. This is currently assigned manually. This would streamline the work of quality controllers by using the measuring machines more evenly. It would also shorten the time needed for the measurement.
Main Requirements:
- Production flow monitoring,
- Optimization of production planning and scheduling,
- Improved machine utilization,
- Reduced machine downtime.
