Facing Challenges

• With the construction of the state-of-the-art precision CNC workshop and the increasing number of CNC
  equipment, a large volume of paper-based documents are generated during the production execution process.
  This not only leads to significant wastage of manpower and resources in terms of management, but also results
  in poor traceability of production issues and the existence of information silos. Additionally, there is a risk of
  document loss and damage.

• The operational documents obtained through the experience of on-site equipment operators are retained
  individually and not collected and archived in a timely and unified manner. This lack of centralization makes it
  difficult to share and track information effectively.

Solution

The Hogons rugged handheld terminal HG506-S is equipped with functions such as barcode scanning and recognition, electronic document browsing, process document browsing, and permission management. It is capable of handling the data collection and process control of key elements (people, machines, materials, methods, environment, measurements) in the manufacturing process. This solves the tracking and management of production task execution, ensuring effective control over the manufacturing process and enhancing the level of refined management. The unified management of operational documents on the production site enables centralized sharing and storage, ensuring traceability and improving work efficiency. Moreover, it is cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and ensures the convenience and security of information flow, achieving paperless management in the factory.

Application Performance

•  With the use of handheld terminals, the systematic distribution, recall, editing, check-in, and check-out of
   production data documents can be achieved, effectively ensuring the accuracy and uniqueness of the
   documents and improving production quality.

• The replacement of paper-based documents allows for data collection and process management in processes
  such as incoming materials, production, product quality, and returns. This helps achieve a paperless and
  visualized production environment.

• On-site personnel can trigger the system to automatically locate and retrieve the corresponding production
  documents by scanning the barcode of a production task. These documents can then be quickly sent to the
  on-site terminal at the workstation, guiding on-site production and ensuring synchronization between the
  operational documents used on-site and the product phases and process versions.

• After a product is returned to the factory, its processing information and quality control information can be
  quickly traced and identified through barcode recognition, reducing the time required to search for historical
  data.
