Track and Trace (TTQ) solutions by ifm offer innovative ways to improve manufacturing efficiency and address the Six Big Losses. This article provides an overview of:
ifm TTQ (Track, Trace, and Quality) solutions target the Six Big Losses on efficiency. Whether you are looking to improve availability scores with returnable asset tracking, or to improve quality with automatic machine set up and RFID enabled smart tooling, it is important to understand how specific solutions impact production efficiencies.
What if everything you produced was of the highest quality?
What if every shipment that left your facility was 100% accurate, every time?
What if you always knew the location of every tool or raw material?
What if you could quickly raise operating efficiency by implementing a tracking solution?
ifm tracking solutions address every aspect off OEE (overall equipment effectiveness). With all resources in one place, it’s never been easier to choose your next continuous process improvement project to boost efficiency. Identify a tracking solution to benefit your facility and get started below.
Tracking technologies applied to raw material storage and retrieval ensure that production never stops, enabling:
Tracking container assets within a facility increases availability for production while protecting a manufacturer from unexpected losses and fines by enabling:
By applying serialized identifiers, tracking technology enables smart tooling capabilities within production processes and machinery, enabling:
Identification technology enables manufacturing processes to proactively prevent errors from occurring. Ensure every product is made to specification with zero mistakes by enabling:
Tracking technologies ensures the right people are at the right machine at the right time so critical assets are managed properly, enabling:
Tracking work-in-progress (WIP) gives real-time insight as to what is in production, giving the ability to create a digital twin of the production floor, enabling:
Ensuring the correct packaging is used for your product is a critical control point for any robust quality control program. Adding unique identifiers on bulk packages or shipments enables:
