Introduction to Huimei: Dongguan Huimei Mold is a precision mold company specializing in shell parts for automobiles, home appliances, food, medical and other industries. It produces more than a thousand sets of molds annually, 70% of which are exported to Europe, the United States and Japan, and provides products to many Fortune 500 companies. and service.

Pain points and difficulties: Huimei Enterprises has suffered a lot from overwork in the long-term development process , which is also a common pain point in the mold industry:

1) For the development pain points of large manufacturing batches and home appliance/fast-moving consumer goods copy models that follow the "cost-driven" logic, it is necessary to use information management tools to accumulate R&D and production experience and consolidate basic management;

2) For high-tech spare parts and products, following the development pain points of "value-driven" logic, it is necessary to improve the automation and digitalization level of the internal production organization;

3) For the development pain points of "delivery-driven" products represented by e-commerce hot products, it is necessary to coordinate upstream and downstream production resources and carry out higher-level overall coordination from the industrial chain level.

Solution: In view of this situation, the Guangdong Mold Industry Industry Cluster Consortium provided Huimei with a mold MES intelligent manufacturing system, a tool management system, a cross-department rapid response management and control system ( see 1 ) , equipment IoT and information visualization The transparent factory system for chemical collaboration ( see 2 ) and the cluster application solution of the supply chain cloud platform.

On the one hand, the system application covers Huimei Mold Enterprise's multiple links from internal product project management informatization, refined production management and control optimization to external supply chain connectivity. It uses software and hardware tools based on equipment IoT, alarm notifications and other software and hardware tools to automatically trigger reports. The core control elements of the production process, open up the data flow of the entire mold production process, and improve the company's production digital management capabilities.

On the other hand, the five products open interfaces with each other, unify portal entrances, unify basic information such as enterprise organizational structure, personnel, assets, and permissions, and unify key production data for sharing within cluster application products. Enhance data coupling between products and break through the single boundary of native products. Deeply mine key data for collaboration between multiple departments and multiple suppliers, and present more value chain information and closed-loop control management.

1 Lingxi beauty system

The Humei system is an on-site rapid response system based on LoRaLAN ad-hoc network as the basic network - workshop-level wireless industrial IoT platform. It is used for production process design, logistics, technology, behavioral operations, product quality, equipment, safety, etc. Collaborative handling of cross-position and cross-department issues. It provides a wealth of abnormality detection hardware terminals, push call tools, full-process processing models, lean analysis, and the ability to continuously accumulate and form a production enterprise problem-solving knowledge base.

Key uses: exception control, user customization, voice broadcast, report knowledge base, industrial call analysis

2 Lingxi Transparent Factory

The core value of the transparent factory in the industrial cluster is that it is based on the LoRaWan wireless IoT self-organizing network, which can collect production data in real time, open up data sources in all aspects of production, and use visual equipment to present production through lean report analysis and trend analysis. The full value chain data makes on-site communication and collaboration more convenient and efficient, and improves guidance in a targeted manner, thus improving management efficiency and level.

Focus on: system management, equipment application management, progress and hours analysis, equipment control analysis, visual management dashboard

System value:

       After implementing cluster products, Huimei helps customers control order progress and load conditions in real time through the coordinated operation of each product.

1. By using APS automatic scheduling to reasonably allocate resources, the delivery guarantee capability of orders is improved;

2. Through real-time monitoring of the operating status of the enterprise's core equipment, the abnormal response speed and processing efficiency are improved;

3. Achieved factory transparency and improved lean management levels;

4. Help enterprises integrate outsourced manufacturers to achieve information interaction, improve collaboration efficiency, and reduce manufacturing costs.

Vision: The mold industry industry cluster consortium will continue to focus on breakthroughs in the mold industry's shortcomings, give full play to its professional advantages, and fundamentally solve corporate problems. Further introduce 5G products, automation products, and upstream and downstream industry chain products of mold companies to create a shared manufacturing platform. Ultimately, the cluster development of the mold industry in Dongguan, Foshan and even the entire Greater Bay Area will be realized, shared intelligent manufacturing will be realized, and the brand image of "Guangdong Mold" will be enhanced.
