Presentation

Operations always aligned with an Andon Monitoring System

An Andon monitoring system is essential in a factory because it allows for real-time visualization and reporting of production issues, thus contributing to a quick response to minimize downtime and optimize productivity. By displaying visual or auditory alerts, it helps teams quickly identify and resolve interruptions or failures in the manufacturing process. AVEVA software plays a crucial role in integrating and enhancing Andon systems through their data management and visualization solutions. They enable automated and real-time data collection, in-depth analysis, and clear presentation of critical information, making it accessible and actionable for all levels of the organization.

Your Challenges and Stakes

Operations always aligned

Within operations, there can be many stakeholders involved, and it is crucial to ensure that everyone works with a clear understanding of the progress of activities: current and upcoming tasks, asset availability, waiting times, and the duration of production cycles are some of the key pieces of information that must always be available.

Performance indicators

The performance of an asset or a line is summarized by its KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). Ensuring that the staff is updated on the value of indicators and the targets to be achieved develops greater involvement and promotes the proactivity of people. Motivating people with clear goals and up-to-date metrics is one of the outcomes that should be aimed for from a digital transformation journey.

Reducing reaction times

How to react quickly to an unexpected event? How to realign all teams quickly regarding a schedule change? A widespread sharing of information allows for a rapid response and keeps all teams aligned at all times. Sharing in real-time the availability status of resources, the breakdown status of an asset, or a performance drop enables timely initiation of shared recovery actions.

What an AVEVA Andon monitoring system will bring to you

Get a demo
Real time visualization
The Industrial Graphic technology allows for the creation of custom graphics to represent all the parameters that characterize an asset and keep them updated in real time with data received from field systems (e.g., PLCs) or management software systems (e.g., MES). Creating clear visualizations to be shared via smart panels placed at key points in production departments.
Production information
Shared KPI Dashboards
The metrics obtained from KPIs can immediately impact productivity when promptly shared through Andon systems. A clear visualization of KPIs and their trends allows for the early interception of undesirable situations: a drop in performance, an increase in waste or energy consumption can be intercepted and addressed in advance compared to the normal times of non-digitized operations.
Anomaly Notification
Promptly notifies anomalies that may occur. Machine stops and delays are immediately displayed, allowing for quicker reaction times. Deviations from quality standards and out-of-norm conditions are highlighted, enabling quicker corrective actions.

Meeting market demands while optimizing available resources requires that each production step be prepared to the best of its ability. Planning resource utilization in terms of raw materials, personnel and machinery brings significant benefits in terms of increasing capacity and reducing waste. In addition, an organization of resources increases adherence to planned delivery times through more accurate lead time estimation and optimizes inventory management. In terms of sustainability, more efficient plans allow for lower energy and material consumption and greater operational flexibility.

The manufacturing world increasingly needs flexible production processes in order to adapt to market demands: variable demand with peaks that are not easily predictable or new products that need to be brought to market quickly add up to a raw material availability that is not always optimal due to more volative supply chains. It is therefore critical to ensure that available resources are tracked and exploited to ensure their availability and best meet production schedules.

Industrial operations are caretterized by a very heterogeneous context of measures and actions to be tracked. Highly automated environments coexist with manual actions influenced by people's decisions. Describing and objectively measuring workflows is an unavoidable necessity in order to achieve more efficient and sustainable processes. Today's challenge focuses on the ability to analyze to get the right insights. Identifying the relationships between products, consumption, and production assets with respect to organizational choices can bring improvements that can go even beyond expectations.

Quality control is crucial for attaining a competitive edge. It ensures customer satisfaction by upholding products to established standards and expectations, thereby reducing operating costs through waste reduction and minimizing the necessity for rework.
Compliance with industry-specific regulations is another crucial aspect of quality control, as it ensures that products comply with legal and safety requirements, thereby avoiding potential penalties and litigation.
Finally, quality control plays a critical role in enterprise risk management, as it helps prevent defective product recalls, legal implications and damage to the company's reputation.

Manufacturing order management represents a priority challenge for factories in conducting their production operations. At the heart of this management lies the delicate balance between meeting delivery deadlines, maintaining product quality, and optimizing resource use. Demand fluctuations, variability in material delivery times, and the need to continuously adjust production plans make the task even more challenging. Effective manufacturing order management is not only crucial for meeting customer expectations in terms of speed and quality; it also plays a key role in reducing production costs and minimizing waste and downtime.
