A tough IoT "Factory Guardian" that can be used in factories such as metal product manufacturing.
Factory guard
IoT specialized for factories! A robust system upgraded mainly with industrial PCs.
Factories have diverse environments, such as oil smoke and vibrations. IoT for the manufacturing industry requires performance that can continue to operate robustly even under such conditions. The PCs used in "Factory Guardian" are manufactured by Advantech Co., Ltd., which has a proven track record in industrial PCs. Other network devices and sensors are designed and packaged with the assumption of being used in factories. For manufacturing factories, we offer IoT packages from Yamashina. To solve such questions and challenges: ● In environments with vibrations and oil smoke, electronic devices are likely to fail quickly. ● We want to use reliable equipment even in small and medium-sized manufacturing companies. All of the above challenges are addressed by Yamashina's "Factory Guardian." *For more details, please refer to the PDF or contact us.

basic information
● Sensors, etc. After consulting, we will propose solutions that fit the factory. ● System (Software) It is built on the basis of edge computing. Since it processes and manages information from PLCs and sensors within the PC, security measures can be easily implemented. Additionally, it does not transmit large amounts of data to the cloud, allowing for operation at appropriate communication costs. The system is developed by Japan Rad, a company that has been active as a system integrator since 1971. ● System (Hardware) We use devices from Advantech, a manufacturer of industrial PCs. These are suitable for use in tough factory environments. ● Output Information Production quantity, production progress, operating rate, number of abnormal occurrences, operating status by equipment (andon), real-time abnormal reports, abnormal history, analysis of operating status by time, analysis of non-operating factors by time, production pitch, and more will be displayed as needed in graphs and tables for the entire factory, each line, each piece of equipment, each month, each day, etc.
Price information
The price varies depending on the scale of the system.
Delivery Time
※Approximately 3 to 4 months after the order is received.
Applications/Examples of results
The packaged IoT solutions, ranging from sensors to software, for the manufacturing industry have finally begun to be introduced to the market. In the future, many implementations are expected to be considered due to the advantages of easy adoption. Our company, Yamashina, is engaged in the metal products business (screw manufacturing), and we will utilize this "Factory Guardian" to IoT-enable a total of 100 manufacturing machines of varying ages across two lines in our factory by April 2018. (Demonstration has been conducted)
Detailed information
-
The operating status of factory equipment will be displayed in color coding. Production planned numbers, production actual numbers, production progress, operating rates, number of abnormalities, and the status of abnormalities will all be displayed in a unified manner.
-
Real-time Production Monitor It displays the current production plan numbers, actual numbers, production progress, operational status such as stopped, waiting, and running, as well as a breakdown of reasons for inactivity.
-
Operational Information Analysis Operational information such as stop, standby, and operation is displayed in a time series format, such as by day. At the same time, a breakdown of non-operational reasons (reasons for stopping) is also displayed.
-
Production Progress Analysis (Monthly) The planned production quantity and actual results will be displayed.
-
Production pitch analysis It compares the production quantity per minute with the reference value and displays it in a graph.

Company information
Established in 1917, during the dawn of mass production of screws in Japan, the company succeeded in producing the first domestic cross-recessed screws in 1949 and cooperated with the government to domesticate tapping screws in 1954. We hold data on over 200,000 types of screws and bolts, enabling us to manufacture a variety of products with high quality. Recently, we have been focusing on research and development investments, working on tapping bolts with a diameter of 6mm or more, high-strength aluminum bolts, tapping screws for thin steel plates, and tapping screws for CFRP, which will support the next generation. We are committed to challenging innovative technology development without being bound by history.
