Digital MES management system helps speed up mould production and create more value for clients

QGM Mould Co., Ltd, formerly known as QGM Mould Department, has been providing mould services to global customers since its establishment in 1979. QGM Mould introduced and integrated Zenith's decades of manufacturing advanced technology to provide customization, design and production of concrete block moulds for the global market, meeting the different needs of domestic and overseas clients for concrete block moulds.

In 2021, with the help of QGM's informatization technology team and lean management team, QGM Mould began to research and promote informatization technology and digitalization in the mould production process. In early 2022, the mould manufacturing MES system was put into production management.

The MES system mainly includes eight sections: report analysis, inspection management, production management, planning management, purchasing management, inventory management, process management and equipment management. It can evaluate the processing time of each process based on the previous process processing time of the same type of product when an order is placed, and finally predict the expected delivery time of the order. During the actual mould producing, the time of each process will be automatically recorded and monitored. When the process of the mould product is not completed according to the time expected by the MES system, the system will issue an early warning to remind the production management personnel that the production time is abnormal and needs to be handled, so as to improve the articulation between each process to prevent the order from being overdue. With the help of the MES system, the average production cycle time of QGM Mould can be controlled to about 15 days.

Such a problem was encountered by a client of QGM Mould in Anyang, Henan Province, China, who had two ZN1200S block molding machines made by QGM for processing recycled concrete. In July 22, the client received a request to produce a special batch of products urgently and needed them to deliver the first batch within 15 days. In order to solve the client's problem, QGM Mould arranged the production plan in short time through its own MES production management system, and at the same time shortened the basic processing cycle by 30% by using the efficient processing equipment developed by the company. The production of the mould was completed in only 7 days. On the 8th day of the order, it was delivered to the client. Finally, the client was able to finish the delivery on time.

QGM has always put client's needs first for decades, adhering to the value of serving clients with undivided attention and insisting on serving every client in the best manner.
