Smart Manufacturing
Background
A large manufacturer's legacy production-management system couldn't track shop-floor equipment status or production progress in real time. Quality data was collected on paper forms and the monthly reconciliation cycle stretched to 7 days.
Solution
- Device-connectivity layer: IoT gateways onboarded 200+ CNC machines, capturing OEE, spindle load, and alarm codes.
- MES scheduling: Work orders dispatched to station terminals; scan-to-report auto-aggregates output and defect rates.
- BI dashboards: Shop-floor displays and mobile reports keep management on top of capacity and inventory.
Results
Six months after go-live, OEE rose by 18%, work-order cycle time dropped 30%, and quality traceability shortened from days to seconds.
