MOM - APS Pain Point Reasonable allocation of resources for manufacturing is a challenge for traditional mold manufacturers. Difficult to capture material status, resource status, and task status at real time for continuous planning. Estimated mold delivery date is from experience and may not be realistic. CIMFORCE Solution Work Time Estimation Mechanism 3D CAPP to collect geometrical information for major operations. Update estimated work time after related CAM tasks are done. Collects actual machining time through machining monitoring for future analysis. Comprehensive Consideration of Analysis Factors Defines machine groups based on machine types, machining precision, maximum workpiece size, …etc. Factory calendar. Individual personnel calendar. Machine maintenance Calendar. Material purchase/ receiving status. Optimized Scheduling Process Supports to set priority, estimated start time, estimated due date of mold or individual workpiece. Captures remaining manufacturing task information to schedule. Supports to remove molds or individual workpiece from scheduling list. Using advanced scheduling software as computing engine to generate optimized scheduling result.
