Electronics Industry

In recent years, the electronics industry has faced increasingly fierce competition. Rising raw material and labor costs, increasing customer demands, and the impact of policy factors such as quality standards and environmental regulations have all placed significant pressure on electronics manufacturers. This has led to even thinner profits for many contract manufacturers. In practice, companies face a complex and diverse range of production formats, including assembly, high-variety small-batch production, batch production, continuous production, hybrid production, and large-scale production. However, these different production types share a common characteristic: short production cycles and rapid product upgrades.

Industry status

Challenges

· There was no batch management for incoming parts, making it impossible to trace issues back to specific batches.

· There was no stateful configuration relationship between PCBAs and finished products, resulting in unclear product status information.

· There was no aligning management between market orders and production shipments, leading to inventory confusion.

· Products were managed solely by order, with no model or version management, resulting in increased inventory.

· Lack of timely feedback on manufacturing execution process status, resulting in reactive production planning and difficulty in scheduling;

· Manufacturing execution dynamics cannot be monitored in a timely manner, requiring only post-event management and corrective maintenance;

· Management (quality, production, and engineering) reports are not available in real time, resulting in only hindsight;

· Material usage and process requirements rely on manual oversight, resulting in low error prevention and correction capabilities during process implementation;

· Incomplete records of the operating environment (people, machines, materials, and methods) make problem analysis time-consuming.

· The logistics and information flows are severely disconnected, making it impossible to meet customer compliance reviews.

01. Basic Data Management

Based on the basic data modeling of the MES system, standardized modeling is implemented for basic material data, product bills of materials (BOMs), process flows, and product layouts.

02. Production Planning

Management Import the master production plan from the ERP system for accurate and paperless information transfer. Effectively manage OTD orders through production work order progress tracking.

03. Warehouse and Material Management

By using barcoding or RFID for material management, efficient operations such as IQC inspection, receipt, delivery, return, scrap, transfer, and inventory are performed.

04. On-site Execution Management

The MES system enables a paperless workshop, providing effective feedback on the production process and real-time monitoring and early warning to ensure smooth production.

05. Full-Process Quality Control

Utilizing MES, we implement quality anomaly alerts and record defect handling methods, providing comprehensive product quality data throughout the entire production process, providing reliable data support for product quality traceability and process optimization.

06. Equipment Resource Management

Through equipment integration and resource records, we effectively manage the maintenance of production equipment, monitor and analyze its effective working status and process parameters, and improve equipment utilization.

07. Data Integration

The MES system quickly and effectively integrates the manufacturer's relevant information systems and production equipment, and features standardized configuration capabilities, effectively improving business and data integration capabilities.

08. Visual Management

Monitor production progress, quality, equipment status, and efficiency throughout the entire process, providing real-time feedback on production issues and automatic push notifications via electronic dashboards, emails, text messages, and apps.
