User Background and Challenges

This article summarizes the challenges and innovations in quality management at Zoomlion, where technological upgrades have transformed traditional paper-based processes into intelligent management, enhancing overall operational standards.

User Background

Zoomlion was established in 1992 and focuses on the development, manufacturing, and research of advanced technology equipment, such as construction and agricultural machinery, and innovative building materials. The top 18 categories, 105 product series, and 636 models of Zoomlion's inventory are all included here. In the industry, it is the first company to be listed on the A-share and H-share markets.

Challenges

In the initial quality management process, the company faced significant challenges: quality inspection data relied on paper work orders and manual caliper measurements, which were then manually input into computers, resulting in a tedious, inefficient process prone to data errors.

Quality inspection data was documented on paper work orders in the initial quality management procedure, which involved manual measurements with calipers. These were then input into the workstation computer, a laborious process that was prone to human error and produced erroneous data. This inefficiency prevented traceability in addition to negatively affecting the workshop's overall production efficiency and product quality.

By introducing bluetooth caliper quality inspection and industrial tablet mes data collection, Zoomlion established an efficient quality management system, achieving paperless manufacturing and significantly improving production efficiency. Real-time data collection reduced the need for secondary input and enhanced data accuracy.

l Through the use of Bluetooth calipers, the company has achieved intelligent, paperless operations, greatly increasing operational efficiency.

l Real-time data collection reduces the need for secondary input while boosting accuracy.

The solution is based on Bluetooth technology, including Bluetooth calipers, AUTOID Pad Air industrial tablets, and the MES system, forming a comprehensive quality management system. Personnel can conduct quality inspections and data collection at points designated by the MES, replacing manual processes to enhance operational efficiency and data precision.

l Seuic has created a solution specific to the manufacturing sector using Bluetooth technology, Bluetooth calipers, AUTOID Pad Air tablet scanning, and the MES system.

l Unlike the manual measurement and data recording process, personnel can now conduct quality inspection, data collection, and measurement at specific points assigned by the MES. Higher operational efficiency and more accurate data collection are the outcomes of combining an industrial tablet with Bluetooth calipers.
