挑战
Norautron Suzhou, a subsidiary of Norautron Group, specializes in the manufacturing of high-mix, low-volume industrial electronics. In 2012, the company realized that their home-grown MES system could no longer support the growing demand from customers. The challenges they faced included increasing customer requirements and market regulations for mission-critical products. Products that need to work in tough environmental conditions or demand extremely high reliability like the ones Norautron makes for maritime, defense, and medical industries require traceability down to a single connection on a single electronic component. Also, process control and material management, including RMA is a must. However, the precise and high-level traceability and strict process control and management can only be achieved by a professional MES system, where Norautron’s home-grown system fell short. Ever-increasing time and labor cost while using and maintaining the home-grown system is another issue that troubled management. In the past, Norautron input tremendous labor-hours to create the trace record manually for each part and product to fulfill the traceability requirement and assure product quality. With increasing national wages, Norautron Suzhou found the labor cost, as a proportion of the whole operation cost rose so sharply year after year that company profitability was soon likely to be adversely affected.
解决方案
Norautron Suzhou chose Aegis Software as their MES provider. Aegis is a mature and global company which offers sales, consultancy, deployment, training, R&D, integration and on-going support across three continents, and provides an enterprise level platform that supports Norautron’s facilities located in Norway, Sweden and China. As a software company that offers the most machine programming and data acquisition connectors with equipment vendors in the market, Aegis provides more standard integration interfaces than any competitor.
