The Evolution of digital factory One Small Step from barcode scanners

• Trend：From traditional manufacturing to intelligent manufacturing

Digital technology is driving the transformation and development of industries and manufacturing in the direction of digitization and intelligence. With the help of advanced automation technology, promoting the transformation and upgrading of internal processes and organizational structures has become the only way for the development of manufacturing enterprises. Xincode recognition technology empowers the manufacturing industry, develops many scenario-based application solutions centered on industrial identification solutions, and helps manufacturing enterprises to digitally and intelligently transform and transform.

• Challenge: How do factories control costs

The transformation of industrial manufacturing from traditional models to digital intelligence is an inevitable trend. One of the biggest challenges for large-scale intelligent manufacturing factories is to achieve effective cost control. The most fundamental thing is: the operating efficiency of the factory has a direct impact on the cost. When the operating efficiency cannot be maximized, the cost will increase.

To solving the following two problems, cost control can be effectively carried out: one is how to improve the operation rate of equipment and reduce equipment downtime.

Many large-scale smart factories can effectively help business owners optimize these two aspects by arranging many sensors on the production line. One of the most common sensors is the barcode scanner.

For example, in the electronics manufacturing industry, the barcode scanner can be said to run through the entire production cycle. The scanner is connected to the on-site smart terminal or computer to quickly import the scanned data into the system, so that the material information of the entire smart factory can be updated. Production information is in the visible and controllable digital network.

Receiving materials in seconds: The receiving staff scans the barcode on the receiving notice, and the materials are recorded in one second. It can not only improve efficiency, but also save labor costs.

Scanning and warehousing: After checking the material is qualified, a batch label is attached. Warehouse personnel scan batch barcodes for storage, and materials can be digitally batch managed in the barcode scanning system to reduce the error rate.

Production line material supply: The warehouse scans the barcode of the outbound material to easily realize the digital traceability of material transfer.

Product assembly: The operator scans the barcode of the accessories and the barcode of the assembled product, and sends the data to the on-site intelligent terminal. The information of production materials can be recorded, and the production process is transparent and manageable to ensure orderly production. Ensure that each product is checked and realize the data management of industrial production.

Packing and warehousing: The packer scans the barcode of the product body. Barcode printers print labels online. The label is attached to the box, the product packaging is completed, the finished product is put into the warehouse, and the scanner gun scans the batch barcode of the finished product. The intelligent terminal records the product type, product quantity and storage location information, and synchronizes with the computer ERP system data, making storage easy and fast.
