General Machinery

Automation covers only part of machining and logistics; heavy reliance on manual work limits capacity and consistency.

WIP passes through many stages with opaque status, making progress and inventory hard to track in real time.

Process parameters and inspection data are scattered, the traceability chain is incomplete and problems are hard to pinpoint.

Products are largely industrial fasteners with complex, fragmented process chains; with fixed parameters the process is neither measurable nor controllable, so plans are hard to execute as issued.

R&D and production data are not connected, so process improvement and new product introduction take too long and innovation is slow to reach production.
