The process management software "AIQ" supports the centralized management of order and process information. In March 2023, it was newly equipped with a function for mass production management (English supported), further enhancing its features for manufacturing sites. In this article, in addition to the existing "function for manufacturing" used in mold and part manufacturing sites, we will introduce the new "function for mass production".
The process management software "AIQ" for mold and part manufacturing databases user’s own information, such as equipment, workers, and processes. By registering order and actual work result information, it “visualizes” scheduling, progress, performance, workload, and costs in real time. This software aims to reduce unnecessary and inefficient tasks, thereby enhancing productivity. For example, it can smoothly address challenges such as the following:
For on-site managers and production managers struggling with issues such as "file management becoming cumbersome and not being able to share information effectively" and "difficulty in seeing progress because it's left to the on-site personnel," we recommend utilizing AIQ for process management.
▶ Detailed Overview of AIQ Function for Manufacturing
The newly added "function for mass production" incorporate features suitable for factories that produce products in the thousands per day. The system calculates the required quantity based on preliminary order , checks the inventory calendar for product and material shortages and excesses to support optimal material ordering and planning production .
For example, it is recommended for manufacturing sites facing the following challenges related to inventory optimization.
▪ Lot Management
Tracking can be done using the lot number automatically assigned to each product or material to identify the scope of influence (cause) in the event of a problem or defect.
▪ Shot Management (Mass Production Chart)
The manufacturing timing of consumable parts can be linked to the order information of the manufacturing functions systematically. By managing the number of mold shots and share maintenance information, it is possible to identify parts with high maintenance frequency based on historical record and link this to improvements for the next mold to create.
AIQ offers the flexibility to enhance system scalability by allowing users to freely combine options (modules) based on the items they wish to manage. We will listen to the customer's issues and propose the optimal configuration plan.
In Japan and other AIQ sales areas, including Thailand, the following configurations have been increasingly implemented, focusing on function for manufacturing.
・ Visualization of the Production Site
・ Progress Monitoring
・ Management for actual result and cost
・ Improvement through PDCA Cycle
・ Scheduling and Delivery Date Management
AIQ is a software developed in-house by CGS, specialized in the field of mold/die and part manufacturing, and the requests from its users are directly installed in every year’s version up. CGSAC have also established a comprehensive support system in Thailand. We can provide on-site support from system installation and launch to daily operation.
