IoT Solutions for Machining Lines

Case.08Ensuring flexible responses to orders while maintaining shop floor productivity

  • Cloud integration
  • Individual equipment
  • Overall line
  • Overall factory
  • Multiple locations
Issues
Because IT systems are not linked with shop floor information, responding to customized orders and sudden order changes is challenging, and leads to declines in productivity.
Solution
  • Connect the CNC and Edgecross with SLMP to enable two-way communication between machine tools and IT systems (MES, quality control systems, etc.)
  • Link manufacturing instructions, manufacturing results, operation data, etc. in real-time
  • Send dimensional correction instructions to machine tools and history storage using on-site tablets
  • *1Industial Computer MELIPC Series use is preinstalled with Edgecross.
Benefits
  • Flexible responses to production changes by directly linking order information with the shop floor
  • Identifying 4M changes such as dimensional adjustments more easily and a stronger quality control system
  • Greater efficiency in traceability management through the digitizing of records and maintenance on the shop floor
