Introduction
The automotive industry is known for its cutting-edge technological advancement and unremitting pursuit of innovation, whether it is the new energy vehicles that represent the future or the traditional fuel vehicles. In the current stage of the continuous improvement of industrial manufacturing, TAICENN, a solution provider & manufacturer specializing in industrial computing hardware systems, stepped in to help automotive manufacturers who are facing major challenges in reducing costs and improving efficiency. These automotive manufacturers need reliable and long-term stable industrial Panel PCs to improve the manufacturing level and performance of the entire factory.
Problem Definition
Few industries have had to evolve as much as the automotive industry over the past few years. This evolution has certainly been difficult in the face of changing consumer demands, supply chain disruptions, microchip shortages, and the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
– The Challenge of Profitable Growth.
The need to balance quality and profitable growth is currently a top internal challenge facing manufacturers in the automotive industry;
– The Key Role of Technology
It is clear that in the face of labor-related disruptions, automotive manufacturers plan to or have already invested in more AI and machine learning technologies to leverage technology to create profitable opportunities.
Manufacturers see an opportunity to leverage incremental, lower initial cost, less resource-intensive smart manufacturing solutions (such as production monitoring) that provide strong value and a quick payback and high ROI. They can then reinvest the ROI into the next step of technology adoption, which may be QMS or MES, allowing them to scale in a cost- and resource-sensitive manner.
Solution Development
Smart manufacturing can greatly reduce costs and improve product quality for the automotive industry, which widely includes enterprise resource planning (ERP), manufacturing execution system (MES), industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), quality management system (QMS), SCADA and other system technologies. Among them, the human-machine interaction application of MES system and intelligent production line is the most common smart technology in the automotive industres. In addition, the integration of MES and SCADA systems can provide real-time data collection, monitoring and analysis, enhanced visibility, simplified operation and greater flexibility, thereby significantly improving manufacturing operations.
Implementation
For the entire automotive manufacturing production line, multiple industrial computers with powerful processing performance and digital visualization are required, supporting capable touch feeling; connecting through the industrial Internet and the Internet of Things, equipping with efficient manufacturing management software, to maximize process management and personnel operation of the entire manufacturing process. In addition, it requires that the industrial touch Panel PC must be strong and reliable enough to withstand the harsh conditions of the production line and ensure consistent reliability and performance.
TAICENN’s TPC-DRT190T2 has become an ideal industrial computing solution for smart technology. This reliable industrial touch panel device provides powerful computing, a 19.0-inch SXGA and high precision 5-wires resistive touchscreen, which can support gloves and other forms of touch experience in complicate on sites environment. The computer system has rich USB ports, LAN ports, COM ports, HDMI interfaces and flexible expansion options, which can achieve fast and reliable data human-machine interaction.
The deployment of TAICENN’s TPC-DRT190T2 has achieved impressive results:
Improved quality: Information technology and industrial computing hardware have improved the level of overall quality of the automotive factories.
Reduced costs: Automation and human interaction have significantly reduced labor costs and improved the overall profitability of manufacturers.
Operational efficiency: Industrial panel PCs have achieved real-time processing in production areas, eliminating barriers and delays between people.
At last:
Automotive industry manufactures are facing a series of complex external economic challenges and critical internal change management. The actual return on investment of existing smart manufacturing initiatives and the industry’s motivation to succeed with it may enable many manufacturers to continue their digital construction journey.
TAICENN’s industrial Panel PC embodies the potential of industrial computing solutions in the automotive industry. By solving key challenges related to quality control and labor costs, advanced industrial computing technology drives innovation and maintains the importance of competitive advantage in the automotive industry.
