Client Profile
ASD is a world-leading manufacturer in the industry of cooking utensils. Founded in 1978 and listed at Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 2010, ASD focuses on industrial investment and involves small kitchen appliances and other related businesses. In the future, it will achieve a huge production capacity of 40 million sets per year. As a Chinese national cooking utensils brand, ASD is a national inspection-free enterprise for the export of stainless steel products, and has won many honors, including an export brand recommended by China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products (CCCME), the top ten enterprises in China's light industry, China's quality integrity enterprise, etc
Challenges for the Project
Upgrading is a test of the support of the system and the mastery of digital and informatization capabilities. The reshaping and optimization of the supply chain process, including how to cooperate with the production plan, is also a challenge for the factory. The factory has also raised the corresponding requirements for the supply rhythm of related accessories with intelligent production scheduling by the system. In addition, with the rising labor costs and increasing difficulty in recruiting workers, ASD wishes to reduce the labor intensity of employees while increasing production capacity and ensuring product quality through upgrade in the directions of automation and intelligence
Solution
The project has built a pallet conveyor line of nearly 3 kilometers to achieve perfect connection with the stereoscopic warehouse and stacker system. More than 40 box and pallet elevators have realized vertical transportation between the floors of the factory. Materials are transported between each factory through the internal corridors to achieve intelligent handling, and the fast in and fast out of finished products. The project has improved the turnover efficiency and time efficiency, as well as reduced manual labor intensity and work space. It is connected with the AGV and the dismantling and stacking robot systems to achieve a high degree of automation
Application Effects
ASD's production capacity and profits have significantly improved. Today, the production capacity of the Wenling factory has reached 40 million sets per year, which is far larger, nearly three times more than the initial designed production capacity. The overall rework and scrap rate has been reduced by about 30% compared to the past. The strength and stability of the equipment and the support of the system are fully capable of supporting such massive production capacity. Damon solutions have greatly reduced the distance and intensity of manual transport, and helped ASD fulfill its non-stop and non-landing intelligent manufacturing requirements
Project Profile
The second project of the group's new energy intelligent manufacturing factory has been officially completed and put into operation, adding an annual production capacity of 12 million electric tools. The total investment of the project is 1 billion yuan, covering multiple production lines such as key components, electric tools of different types. Intelligent logistics systems are required to connect the processes of manufacturing, assembly, injection molding, etc.
Challenges for the Project
During the expansion of production capacity, the company found that the existing material transportation between production processes was overly dependent on manuals, resulting in low operational efficiency and high labor costs. With the continuous increase in business orders, the company faced the challenge of how to effectively connect production lines and logistics management. At the same time, there was an increasingly urgent need to improve the utilization of factory space.
Solution
By deploying a 2km i-G5 conveyor line and 300+ sets of pallet conveyors, the raw material warehouse, line-side warehouse, production lines, and finished goods warehouse can be seamlessly connected. Continuous and reciprocating lifts are also installed to achieve cross-floor transportation. Automatic equipment such as stretch wrapping machines, destack robots, and barcode scanning and weighing systems are used to form a conveying circulation for inbound and outbound of finished goods and materials.
Application Effects
After the project is put into operation, the i-G5 conveyor line can handle 2,000 boxes per hour, and the pallet conveyor line can handle 130 pallets per hour. The efficiency of destack robots reaches 15 seconds per cycle, and the efficiency of stretch wrapping system is 45 pallets per hour. The logistics efficiency of the production line has been greatly improved, and there is efficient collaboration between business, resources, and equipment, which has realized unmanned operation and intelligent management, thus comprehensively enhancing production capacity.
Project Profile
The company has decided to build a new smart lighthouse factory covering an area of 150 mu in Quanzhou. In the future, by integrating production equipment, logistics equipment, and information technology, it will fully realize the automation and information management of the entire process including RD design, production operation, testing and monitoring, warehousing logistics, etc. to achieve the effect of man-machine production digital collaboration.
Challenges for the Project
As the manufacturing and transportation business of the factory becomes more frequent, traditional logistics management models can no longer meet the actual needs of customers in terms of both capacity and accuracy. The excessive reliance on manual labor in the previous material turnover between production processes has led to low operational efficiency and high labor costs. And many logistics pain points on the production line urgently need to be addressed.
Solution
Damon has deployed i-G5 conveyor lines with a total length of 1.4km and vertical conveyor system for the factory to achieve cross-floor connection and line circulation. Seamlessly connected with AGVs of the production line, i-G5 can smoothly complete the fully automatic transportation of spare parts, materials, and finished products to solve the efficiency problem of ordering and distribution. In addition, Damon has also introduced WMS to achieve intelligent control of the entire process of material transportation without landing.
Application Effects
After the project is put into operation, the i-G5 conveyor line can handle 800 pcs/h, the continuous lifts can handle 800 pcs/h, and the reciprocating lifts can handle 800 pcs/h. Damon’s system has undertaken the material transportation function between the warehouse and the production line, which has increased conveying efficiency by 45% and production efficiency by 67% to help the factory achieve material-driven production and comprehensively improve production capacity.
