ENGINE ASSEMBLY LINE
- This PLC-Scada based System is developed for a world leader in the design and manufacture of engines and power generation equipment
Operation Philosophy
- The SCADA/PLC System is used for barcode tracking of different assembly parts as the GENSET is being build along the assembly line
- Setability /Scanning and traceability of 241 different components
- Storing RTC based data of every component as the GENSETs are build.
- Scanning of Dot Pin Matrix (DPM Code) , Laser Mark, QR Code on metal/Oily surface
- Poka-Yoke for error free assembly building
- Any Scanner can be used on any Station , providing flexibility of operations
System Layout
There are 8 Different Assembly Stations and 4 wireless Scanners which are used between this Stations
Features
- Image processing based 4 wireless scanners flexibly used on 11 different stations.
- Industrial codes like Dot Pin Matrix (DPM Code) , Laser Mark, QR Code scanning is possible with repeatability.
- Scanning on Oily/Metal surface.
- Poka-Yoke implementation for mistake proof assembly.
- Total Engine Assembly standard report at the End
- Flexibility for component setting
- In case of Customer complaints historical data tracing is possible
- Response time to customer is improved.
- Quality of assembly is improved.
- Production time is reduced.
