Furthermore, the management system 2 can also record the inventory quantity 221 and the electronic kanban 222 by the management database 22, and reversely import the data of the inventory quantity 221 and the electronic kanban 222 into the ERP system without limitation. .

In the present invention, the content of the electronic kanban 222 is the same as or similar to the content of the production kanban 1 shown in FIG. 1, which is mainly to digitize the paper content and display it through the integrated display interface 21, so the The content of the electronic billboard 222 will not be explained separately.

As mentioned above, when the electronic kanban 222 corresponding to a part is continuously generated and the accumulated quantity reaches the corresponding molding line, the production personnel will be allowed to operate the corresponding production equipment (not shown in the figure) to start producing the part. The parts carrying box 3 is used to house the finished parts. In an embodiment, the number of parts accommodated in one part carrying box 3 is the same as the number of parts recorded in one electronic signboard 222, in other words, in the present invention, one part carrying box 3 corresponds to To an electronic billboard 222.

As shown in FIG. 2, a readable and writable chip 31 is embedded in the component carrying box 3, and the readable and writable chip 31 is used to record the component information of the parts currently contained in the component carrying box 3. In an embodiment, the part information may be, for example, part number, part name, quantity, and location number of the part to be stored in the warehouse, etc., but it is not limited.

In an embodiment, the production management device 23 is arranged beside a production device and is operated by production personnel. In this embodiment, the production management equipment 23 can be connected to the production equipment according to actual needs, or can be set independently without limitation.

As shown in FIG. 2, the production management device 23 has a code writing gun 25 that can perform wireless communication with the readable and writable chip 31 of one or more parts carrying boxes 3.

After a part is produced and contained in the part carrier box 3, the production personnel can write the part information corresponding to this part into the readable and writable chip 31 of the part carrier box 3 through the code gun 25 to complete the part Production report. Moreover, the production management equipment 23 can generate corresponding production report data through this production report process, and can upload the production report data to the management database 22 or ERP system to update the management database according to the production report data 22 (or ERP system) records the stock quantity 221 of this part and electronic kanban 222. Specifically, the production management device 23 is to update the cumulative number of electronic billboards 222 for this part (to be described in detail later).

Please also refer to FIG. 3 at the same time, which is a schematic diagram of the first embodiment of the kanban forming screen of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the integrated display interface 21 can provide an electronic kanban monitoring screen 211 corresponding to displaying the part numbers and names of multiple parts related to the production line and the current cumulative number of electronic kanban 222 on the electronic kanban monitoring screen 211 . In addition, the molding line 2110 in which each part is installed is also displayed on the electronic signage monitoring screen 211, respectively.

In the present invention, the molding line 2110 is equivalent to a production start line, that is, when the cumulative number of electronic signboards 222 of a part reaches the molding line 2110, the production process of the part will be started. In one embodiment, the molding line 2110 is directly displayed on the corresponding field in the electronic kanban monitoring screen 211, so that the production personnel can quickly determine whether the current cumulative number of the electronic kanban 222 is sufficient, and then determine the production start of the part time. In another embodiment, the integrated display interface 21 may not display the molding line 2110, but automatically compares the cumulative number of the electronic signboard 222 with the molding line 2110 through the management system 2, and the cumulative number of the electronic signboard 222 reaches the molding line At 2110, a signal is sent through a human-machine interface (such as a screen or a speaker) to remind the production personnel to start the production process of this part.

It is worth mentioning that the molding line 2110 is mainly a better production start time point automatically calculated by the management system 2 according to parameters such as the inventory quantity 221 of parts, production speed and demand quantity. If the production personnel start the production process before the cumulative number of electronic kanbans 222 reaches the molding line 2110, excessive inventory may be generated and occupy the warehouse space; and if the cumulative number of production personnel in the electronic kanban 222 significantly exceeds the molding line 2110 Starting the production process may result in insufficient inventory of parts. However, the above description is only a specific implementation example of the present invention, but not limited thereto.

In the embodiment of FIG. 3, the cumulative number of the electronic kanban 222 of the fixed sheet has reached the corresponding molding line 2110 (a total of seven electronic kanbans 222 have been accumulated), so the production personnel can start the production of the fixed sheet through the corresponding production equipment. The cumulative number of electronic signboards 222 of the bracket is zero (indicating that there is currently no demand), and the corresponding molding line 2110 has not been reached, so the production personnel are not allowed to produce the bracket. The cumulative number of electronic signboards 222 of the relay has not yet reached the corresponding molding line 2110 (only three electronic signboards 222 have been accumulated), indicating that the inventory of the relay is still sufficient to meet the demand, so the production personnel are not allowed to produce the relay .

Next, taking the part in FIG. 3-the fixing piece as an example, the following description will be made.

As shown in FIG. 3, the cumulative number of electronic signboards 222 of the fixed sheet has reached the corresponding molding line 2110, so the production personnel can operate the corresponding production equipment to start producing the fixed sheet. After the production of the fixing sheet is completed, the production personnel uses the empty parts carrier 3 to accommodate the produced fixing sheet, thereby transporting the fixing sheet to the warehouse or to the assembly unit for the assembly operation of the finished product.

In an embodiment, the actual number of fixed pieces accommodated in each part carrying box 3 should correspond to the specified number of fixed pieces recorded in an electronic signage 222. For example, if 200 fixed pieces are recorded in an electronic kanban 222, the production staff will produce 200 fixed pieces through the production equipment, and use a single part carrier box 3 to accommodate the 200 fixed pieces. In the embodiment of FIG. 3, the number of fixed-board electronic signages 222 is seven, that is to say, the total demand for fixed-board is 1400 (200 x 7). Therefore, the production personnel can produce 1400 fixing pieces, and each of the 1400 fixing pieces is accommodated by seven part carrying boxes 3 (that is, each piece carrying box 3 accommodates 200 fixing pieces respectively). However, the above description is only a specific implementation example, but not limited to this.

After the required fixing pieces are produced and stored in the parts carrying box 3, the production personnel can use the code gun 25 on the production management device 23 to write the part information corresponding to the fixing pieces into one or more parts The readable and writable chip 31 in the carrying box 3 is used to complete the production report of the fixed film, and at the same time, the management database 22 is updated.

It is worth mentioning that when the production management device 23 writes the part information to the readable and writable chip 31 through the code gun 25 and completes the production report, the demand for this part has been met, so the production management device 23 will produce Corresponding production report data, and using the production report data to update the quantity of the electronic kanban 222 of this part recorded in the management database 22.

In one embodiment, after the production management device 23 writes the part information to a readable and writable chip 31 of a part carrying box 3, the cumulative number of electronic kanbans 222 of this part is reduced by one according to the production report data. In another embodiment, after the production management device 23 writes the part information to the readable and writable chips 31 of all the parts carrying boxes 3, the cumulative number of the electronic kanban 222 of this part is zeroed according to the production report data. In other words, the reduced number of electronic signages 222 corresponds to the number of parts carrying boxes 3 actually used.

Please refer to FIG. 4 for the flow chart of the first specific embodiment of the production process of the present invention. FIG. 4 is used to further illustrate the management procedure of the present invention for electronic signage.

First, when a part has a demand (for example, inventory is reduced or demand is increased), the management system 2 of the present invention automatically generates an electronic kanban 222 for the part. In this embodiment, the electronic kanban 222 will be stored in the management database 22 or in the ERP system, which is not limited.

In the management process of the electronic kanban 222, the production personnel of the management system 2 or the production line can continuously monitor whether the cumulative quantity of the electronic kanban 222 of a part reaches the corresponding molding line 2110 (step S10). If the accumulated number of electronic signage 222 has not reached the molding line 2110, then return to step S10 for continuous monitoring. For example, the production personnel may continue to pay attention to the electronic signage monitoring screen 211 of the integrated display interface 21. If the cumulative number of electronic signage 222 reaches the molding line 2110, the production personnel are allowed to start the production process of this part (step S12).

During the production process, the production personnel can go to the empty box area (not shown in the figure) of the production line to obtain the required number of component carrier boxes 3 (step S14). In one embodiment, the production personnel can go to the empty box area to obtain the parts carrying box 3 in person. In another embodiment, the production personnel can control the robot or automated equipment (such as a conveyor belt) to carry the part carrier box 3 to the location of the production equipment, which is not limited. In this embodiment, the demand for the component carrying box 3 is the same as the cumulative number of electronic signboards 222 for this component.

After the parts are produced, they can be accommodated in the parts carrying box 3 to complete the boxing operation (step S16). In this embodiment, the number of actually accommodated parts in one part carrying box 3 is the same as the number of parts recorded in a single electronic signboard 222.

After the parts are produced and packed, the production personnel can operate the production management device 23 to edit and modify the part information of this part, and write the part information to the part carrying box 3 through the code gun 25 of the production management device 23 In the internal readable/writable chip 31 (step S18). In an embodiment, the part information may be, for example, the part number, part name, quantity, location number stored in the warehouse, etc., without limitation. It is worth mentioning that all the parts carrying boxes 3 used to accommodate this part must be written by the production management device 23 through the code gun 25 into their readable and writable chips 31, by this writing action, The production management device 23 can complete the production report for this part and generate corresponding production report data (step S20). In one embodiment, the production report data can be stored in the management database 22 of the management system 2 or in the ERP system integrated with the management system 2.

After step S20, the production management device 23 can also update the inventory quantity 221 of this part and the cumulative quantity of the electronic kanban 222 recorded in the management database 222 according to the production report data (step S22). Specifically, the management system 2 mainly deletes the accumulated quantity of the electronic kanban 222 according to the production report data, or directly resets the accumulated quantity of the electronic kanban 222 to zero. More specifically, if the production management device 23 writes the part information into the readable and writable chip 31 in a part carrying box 3 in step S18, the cumulative number of electronic billboards 222 of this part will be reduced by one; if the production management In step S18, the device 23 writes the part information into the readable and writable chips 31 in the five parts carrying boxes 3, then the cumulative number of electronic signboards 222 of this part will be reduced by five, and so on.

According to the above technical solution of the present invention, when a part is completed and is contained in one or more parts carrying boxes 3, the production management device 23 can perform the action by writing the part information into the readable and writable chip 31 Production reporting is performed, and the management system 2 can update the current cumulative number of electronic kanbans according to the production reporting data, thereby effectively managing a large number of electronic kanbans on the production line.

Please refer to Figure 1 again. In an embodiment, the management system 2 of the present invention may further include an assembly management device 24 and a finished product carrying box 4, wherein the assembly management device 24 is connected and integrated by a wired method (such as a cable) or a wireless method (such as a network system) Display interface 21, management database 22 and/or production management equipment 23.

In this embodiment, the assembly management device 24 can be connected to the assembly device according to actual needs, or can be set independently without limitation.

As shown in FIG. 1, the assembly management device 24 has another code gun 26. Specifically, the assembly management device 24 and the aforementioned production management device 23 can use a common code gun, or use different code guns (for example, the production management device 23 is connected to use the first code gun, and the assembly management device 24 is connected to use The second code gun) is not limited. The code writing gun 26 is similar to the aforementioned code writing gun 25 and can be used for wireless communication with one or more readable and writable chips 41 of the finished product carrying case 4. The readable and writable chip 41 is similar to the readable and writable chip 31 in the component carrying box 3, and may be a radio frequency chip, and the code writing gun 26 may be a radio frequency module, which will not be repeated here. It is worth mentioning that the code writing gun 26 can also perform wireless communication with the aforementioned component carrying box 3.

When one or more parts are produced separately, they will be accommodated in the aforementioned parts carrying box 3 respectively. When a finished product needs to be assembled (ie, the cumulative number of finished electronic signage 222 reaches the corresponding molding line 2110), these parts carrying boxes 3 will be moved to the location of the assembly equipment, whereby the assembly personnel can pass the assembly equipment Assemble these parts into the desired finished product. After the required finished products are assembled, the assembler can use the finished product carrying box 4 to accommodate these finished products to facilitate packaging and shipping.

After the parts in a parts carrying box 3 are used up, the assembly management device 24 can erase the part information in the readable and writable chip 31 of the parts carrying box 3 through the code gun 26, and at the same time can write the finished product information The readable and writable chip 41 is inserted, so that the assembly management device 24 can complete the assembly report of parts and the production report of finished products, and generate corresponding assembly report data and finished product report data. The assembly management device 24 may upload the assembly report data to the management database 22 to update the inventory quantity 221 of this part and the quantity of the electronic kanban 222 recorded by the management database 22.

It is worth mentioning that after the above-mentioned assembly report data is written into the management database 22, it can automatically drive the part out of stock program, and then delete the stock quantity of this part 221 (representing that this part has been used). And, by writing the above-mentioned assembly report data into the program of the management database 22, the assembly management device 24 can increase the number of electronic signboards 222 about this part in the management database 22 (representing an increase in demand for this part). Among them, the increased number of the electronic kanban 222 corresponds to the number of the parts carrying boxes 3 with the part information erased.

Through the above technical solution of the present invention, the management system 2 can manage and track the use status of parts through the erasing operation of the readable and writable chip 31 by the assembly management device 24, thereby generating a new electronic signboard 222, thereby facilitating dynamic update of parts Production schedule. Furthermore, after the component information in the readable and writable chip 31 is erased, the component carrier box 3 can be used again, thus effectively reducing the operation cost of the production line.

The finished product carrying box 4 is used to receive the finished product after assembly. After the finished product is assembled and contained in the finished product carrying box 4, the assembly personnel can operate the assembly management device 24 to edit and modify the finished product information corresponding to the finished product, and write the finished product information into the finished product carrier through the code gun 26 In the readable and writable chip 41 of the box 4. Through the above-mentioned writing operation, the assembly management device 24 can complete the production report of the finished product, and generate the corresponding production report data of the finished product. At the same time, the assembly management device 24 can upload the above-mentioned finished product production report data to the management database 22 to update the inventory quantity 221 of the finished product and the quantity of the electronic kanban 222 recorded in the management database 22. In this embodiment, the finished product information is similar to the aforementioned part information, and may include, for example, finished product number, finished product name, quantity and other information, but it is not limited.

It is worth mentioning that the above-mentioned finished product production report materials refer to finished product production materials. By writing the above-mentioned finished product production report data into the program of the management database 22, the assembly management device 24 can increase the inventory quantity 221 of the finished product in the management database 22 (representing that the inventory of this finished product has increased). Moreover, by writing the above-mentioned finished product production report data into the program of the management database 22, the assembly management device 24 can delete the number of electronic kanbans 222 about the finished product in the management database 22 (representing that the demand for this finished product has been fully/ Partially satisfied). Among them, the number of deleted electronic kanbans 222 corresponds to the number of finished product carrying boxes 4 into which finished product information is written.

Please also refer to FIG. 5 at the same time, which is a flowchart of the first specific embodiment of the assembly procedure of the present invention. FIG. 5 is used to further illustrate the management process of the electronic kanban of the present invention.
