MES solution for the electronics industry

The MES system is a self-developed MES core that fully draws on advanced management concepts such as lean production from abroad, closely integrates with domestic user needs, and is highly favored by China's discrete machinery manufacturing enterprises with its intuitive graphical interface, powerful advanced scheduling, and collaborative manufacturing suitable for national conditions. It has been successfully applied in many enterprises.

Industry characteristics:

1. Supply Chain

The supply chain of the electronic assembly industry usually includes four levels of enterprises, with the top enterprise being the most downstream enterprise in the supply chain, which directly faces the end customer, while other levels of enterprises are suppliers to the higher-level enterprise.

In these supply relationships, third tier enterprises may also provide products to top tier enterprises, while fourth tier enterprises may directly provide products to second tier enterprises. This creates a complex supply and purchase relationship.

2. Product

Except for some top-level enterprises that are only responsible for design and sales, there are a large number of products for all levels of enterprises involved in manufacturing, and the number of products increases as the enterprise's level in the supply chain decreases. A fourth tier enterprise may have thousands of products. The complexity of products generally increases with the level of enterprise in the supply chain. There is a gradual trend towards customization in products, and the higher the level of customization for products from higher-level enterprises, the higher the degree of customization.

3. Plan

Due to the wide variety of products, the formulation of production plans is very complex. The high frequency of changes in customer orders and frequent deviations in the execution of production plans result in situations where even if a production plan is established, it cannot be fully carried out according to the plan. Similarly, it is difficult to develop and execute capability requirement plans and material requirement plans.

4. Production process

There are various forms of production lines, including flowline, work center, work unit, and hybrid. The above four forms may exist at different stages of the manufacturing process of the same product for the same enterprise. Advantages of Suzhou Dianmai Automotive Parts MES Software Management

Due to the variety of products and the abundance of non-standard products, equipment and workers must have sufficient flexibility to adapt..

5. Cost calculation

Raw materials, semi-finished products, finished products, and waste products are frequently stored in and out of the warehouse, making cost calculation complex. It is necessary to collect and allocate costs based on the cost object and along with the production process.

Pay attention to the comparison of actual costs and standard costs, and analyze costs from different perspectives.

With the continuous intensification of global economic integration, China, as a manufacturing powerhouse, has made great breakthroughs in fields such as electronic assembly, SMT surface mount, PCB assembly, etc. The scale and quantity of enterprises have been increasing, resulting in increased cost pressure, shortened product life cycles, increasingly complex and opaque equipment, and unknown demand forecasting, all of which have become important factors in the competition of the electronic manufacturing industry in today's world. The intense competition, tight product profits, safety guarantees for product quality, increasingly stringent regulatory requirements, and the importance of global market and brand maintenance have put forward higher requirements for enterprises in the electronic assembly industry. Implementing MES will be a good way out for enterprises.
