Case Studies
Weld Shop Production Control System
Objective
- To have centralized monitoring of all FA control devices and build a robust signal network
- To transfer the production plan data (stored in the Host Server) to individual line Eqpt controllers at various sub-assemblies
- Synchronization of operations at all the sub-assemblies
Solution / System Architecture
Solution
- Storage of Daily Production schedule in the Host server database
- The Main iQ-R PLC fetches plan data and downloads to shop floor control PLCs
- Centralized Monitoring of production sequence plan and data of current vehicle on assembly line
- Synchronization of production in various sub-assemblies and ensures the matching of sub- assemblies for a body
- Production sequence modification in case of emergency
