挑战
Screwmatics of South Carolina Inc. 曾使用 JobBoss 作为其 ERP 系统。但是,他们无法查看成本和利润,因为他们无法在 JobBoss 中运行任何相关报告。他们很难跟踪该系统中的所有内容,当他们致电支持人员时,一周内都无法得到答复。他们有大量手写信息,并且过去需要很长时间才能调出订单,因为 Screwmatics 制造的零件种类繁多,零件编号各不相同。过去,他们很难跟踪电镀部门的实际成本和销售额。
关于客户
自 1988 年以来,南卡罗来纳州 Screwmatics 公司一直是家族企业。Hogge 家族从两台机器起家,如今已发展到拥有 130 名员工和 200 多台机器。他们是一家 CNC 瑞士车床和螺丝机车间,可进行大批量生产加工。车间最新增加的是电镀部门。他们合作的主要行业包括医疗、管道、配电和工业设备,因为他们拥有医疗 ISO 认证 13485 并专攻无铅黄铜。Billy Hogge 是 Screwmatics 的副总裁兼运营经理,而他的父亲仍担任总裁兼制造经理。除了担任副总裁之外,Billy 还负责销售和营销。
解决方案
在尝试使用 JobBoss 系统但失败后,是时候寻找新的解决方案了。Hogge 通过 YouTube 上的广告找到了 E2。他联系了 Shoptech 以获取更多信息,他们派人到商店演示了该软件。E2 是他们在从 JobBoss 转换之前需要查看的唯一产品。尽管有大量手写信息,但商店的转换还是很容易的。2012 年,Screwmatics 开始使用 E2 Pro,后来升级到 E2 Shop System。最初,学习过程有点困难,实施需要时间,因为他们必须手动输入来自以前系统的所有数据。首次实施一年后,他们已经在 E2 中运行了全部库存。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
