Current status of the electrical equipment manufacturing industry

At present, electrical equipment manufacturing enterprises use the traditional manufacturing model for production, there is equipment scattered, the lack of information support, in the production process can not be timely access to equipment status information and other issues, resulting in production information lag, the production process is less transparent, is not conducive to the effective management of the production process.

Secondly, in the production process, the production line is not automated and intelligent enough, and there are many manual operation links, so the production efficiency is low. Moreover, there are many varieties and small batches of products demanded by customers, which makes it difficult to form a standardised production process and increases the difficulty of production line automation transformation.

In addition, under the traditional manufacturing model, the warehouse management adopts the manual entry method. However, it is difficult to track and trace the flow of materials, semi-finished products and finished products, as it is easy to make mistakes when relying on manual confirmation of material specifications, quantities and other information. Due to the lag in updating the material inventory data, it is difficult for the warehouse to determine the material inventory level according to the actual production situation, and if the safety stock level is not set properly, it may lead to production stagnation. Materials and products in and out of the warehouse rely on manual quality control and inspection data is recorded on paper, which is a heavy workload and not conducive to quality statistics and traceability.

As the internal communication between the workshop and the outside world is dependent on documentation, there is a delay in obtaining production information and material information from the outside world, which does not allow for timely adjustment of the production plan to the actual workshop situation. During production, paper process management cards for each process need to be recorded offline manually, which makes it difficult to manage strictly, so there is a lack of detailed data for statistics on the workload and error rate of employees. When quality problems occur in the product, it is not possible to quickly identify the problematic process link in the traceability process through the production process records, and production responsibility cannot be assigned to an individual. The lack of control over the movement of materials between front and back processes can slow down the pace of production. All of these factors can have an impact on productivity and product quality.
