[Improvement Case] Key Points for Visualizing Production Lines

A case where the design and deployment of a production management system improved line productivity.

We would like to introduce a case study on improving production management systems through visualizing line conditions. In a production line, when equipment stops or malfunctions occur, the maintenance personnel on-site can grasp the abnormalities, but they cannot share information across the entire factory. If trouble information cannot be shared within the system, it may take a lot of time to respond when the same equipment stops or malfunctions again. To address this, we have deployed a system to collect various information in advance, such as trouble details, operating time, and production quantities. This enables early detection of equipment stoppages and quick recovery of the production line, as well as management of the production situation affected by troubles. [Case Overview] ■Challenges - The location of the occurrence can only be identified at the equipment level, leading to delays in discovery and increased line downtime. ■Results - By designing and deploying a production management system, we were able to improve line productivity. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
