The Challenge

Thousands of tools in simultaneous use distributed across 50+ sub-locations inside a high-velocity plant. Line stoppage from an unlocatable tool is direct cost.

High-velocity manufacturing operation. Mobile and desktop reader with assisted in-plant search.

The Solution

  • Tool location available from any screen in seconds
  • Complete traceability of every tool in every sub-location
  • Line stoppages from missing tools reduced to a minimum
  • Tool location available from any screen in seconds.
  • Line stoppages from missing tools reduced to a minimum through traceability across systems beyond RFID.

Context

High-velocity manufacturer with thousands of tools in simultaneous use distributed across 50+ sub-locations inside the plant. Line stoppage from an unlocatable tool is direct cost.

Approach

Diagnostic covered three critical lines with distinct usage profiles. Bounded Deployment on one high-volume sub-location. Full Project scaled to the 50+ sub-locations with assisted search.

Architecture

RFID tags on individual tools · fixed readers per sub-location · operational screens with in-plant search · integration with the production system.

Implications

In high-velocity manufacturing, tools are inventory. Managing them as inventory frees productive capacity without investing in additional lines.
