With Station Management, we enable real-time planning and constant optimization through automated configurations across the plant. Through smart tools and adapters assigning the right task in the right place at the right time, new variants are introduced with ease.
Station Management
Introducing Smart Tools
To reach the required flexibility in every station, we need to automate the configuration of each station. We need to have tools that can be dynamic and we need to be able to assign the right task in the right place at the right time.
So to do this you need Smart Tools that are location-aware, that know where they are. They can move freely being wireless and they can receive job orders from an overlying system in real time.
Station Management
On the fly rebalancing
By enabling the products to decide where to go next dynamically and then making sure that when the product comes to a station, there's a corresponding tool with capabilities to do the operation that's needed. This can be done for most stations.
Station Management
Optimize production with dynamic stations
But the important thing from a tool perspective is that the toolsin the new station needs to be preconfigured with the correctprograms, and getting these assembly tasks dynamically.So we can either move a tool that is suitable to the right locationto do an operation, or we can take the product to the tool.
