Pioneer Machinery, with more than 40 years of experience of designing and manufacturing wire & cable machinery, is now in the IoT industry providing customers Smart Factory solutions.

SmartFA Platform

Visualize and manage your factory easily and intuitively. Pioneer’s machine reforming service makes the SCADA system perfectly integrated with SmartFA platform, which is also embedded with customized 3D factory map. And also, we modulate all systems to plug on the platform and allow the customization of the interface and its functions.

  • Web based : Web based platform allows you to access from everywhere, any devices.
  • Safe and realiable : Protect your data and manage who and how you can access the platform.
  • Connected module : 3D Factory map, SCADA, Product history, Product traceback, Recipe, EMS(energy management system), OEE, QC, SPC, Reports, Preventive Maintenance, Job dispatch, HUD(head up display), Event trigger engine, RFID System, User Control, Big data analysis

Product Traceback

Product Backtracing system enables cable manufacturer to track process information starting from final product troughtout every production process until original materials. With digitized workflow it labels and records every event in detail when it was produced on production line. This system greatly helps users to traverse the whole production processes and able to locate the problem and figure out the root cause. The back-traceable product history feature, as an advanced approach to Quality Assurance, is becoming essential from more and more contractors for their critical projects.

  • Historical record : All production monitoring parameter are collected and logged in a Bigdata database with proper event label, which is so flexible that enable the possibility to generate different kinds of historical reports when required.
  • Root Cause analysis : Use the traceback product history as a key we can recall all historical data records from database and reform the process just like a time machine. Locating a root cause of a cable defect, and find corrective / preventive action is never being that easy.

OEE

Monitor the status of all production lines at any time and generates reports from any appointed period. It not only avoids human errors of key-in in the production data, but save lots of time to get the OEE reports, which are one of the key indexes to improve the production efficiency.

  • Real time : All production status are updated automatically without interfer with human beings, which results realtime accurate raw data for further analysis.
  • Complete and accurate : With integrating product traceback system, it become possible to generate detail, precise, cross-referenced OEE report which greatly help to manage the production management.

Job Dispatch System

Job Dispatching is the key to start digital wire & cable manufacturing. Employees can create and manage jobs with process recipe, and deploy to the assigned machine. With RFID system, every single event will be labelled and stored in the database such as materials, operators, time etc. It also allows customers to import csv files or files from database to generate jobs automatically.

  • Reduce human error : Production parameters can be automatically filled into the assigned machine by existing recipes . (remark: only applicable to upgraded IoT lines)
  • Job management : With the Job management system, jobs can be organized and modified online. It reduce a lot of paperworks and time of transfering the documents between production management department and factory side.

Recipe System

Create, edit, manage all the recipes(parameters) on Pioneer SmartFA platform. It allow customers to conserve optimal parameters as the template for different products or different machines. Further more, you can also save the recipe at production line after fine tuning and satisfy with the quality/ performance. Digitalization and centralized management reduce the errors and the waste of the time.

  • Access control: Since the recipe is critical to the production line from both quality and performance aspect, Any changes of recipes should be taken seriously. THe ACL (Access Control List) defines privilege of select/adapt/revise/erase of recipe.
  • Reduce human errors : Since all parameters are retrived from database and filled in to the production line automatically, it greatly avoid the possiblility of human mistakes.
  • Optimize the parameters : Recipe system allows customers to keep improving their parameters on every production practice.

Smart Box

For those existed lines that is not suitable to upgrade to an IoT SmartLine, Smart box is an alternative solution to provide integrated electronic control system developed by Pioneer. It equips with touch screen for job dispatch and a RFID reader for data lebelling. It could connect with SmartFA easliy with minimized modification of the existed machine. It realize the first step of digital flow, such as labelling, job management and so on.

  • Uniform HMI : Process monitoring, job dispatch, event labeling function are all interegrated in this small box with uniform HMI (Human-Machine Interface) as a package, which makes integration job and learning curve easy and fast.
  • Affordable : Not every production lines require fully upgrade to a Smart line, with SmartBox pacakge it is possible to integrate traditional production line with minimum expanse & works.
