Another exciting day at Automated Drive Systems. We are rounding out our next process improvement project of putting computer terminals in each manufacturing cell. EPLAN delivers again with #SmartWiring. Full step by step work instructions clearly show the correct information to select, verify, install and report progress on every wire needed to complete a #controlpanel. Imagine taking a pre-processed wire built in order, cut to length, ferruled on both ends and having this type of instruction of where to land on the source component terminal, how to properly route the wire through the wire duct and terminate the other side. Even the proper torque information seems to be able pass through to the wire-person, which we were not expecting.
We are pumped to be able to put this to use and level up our panel game once again.
Be on the lookout later this week for a demo of an AR headset we are testing for the component mating process. If you are looking to outsource your panel assembly to a state of the art, lean manufacturing company, hit me up. Looking to learn about what panel shop automation and improvements may work for you, hit me up I am more than happy to pay it forward and help you out with some recommendations.
Special shoutout to Bart Niebuhr my awesome EPLAN rep for the help this afternoon!
