TPM Total Productive Maintenance System for Equipment, Tooling & Machining
Production and manufacturing management has become a key topic in recent years for improving a company’s fundamentals and driving enterprise transformation. Amid fierce global competition, every manufacturing industry is working hard to raise equipment utilization and turnover rates and to strengthen machining precision, in order to lower operating costs and gain a competitive edge. How to keep equipment in peak condition, how to tightly control the cost of cutting tools, molds, and other machining consumables, and how to manage machining know-how and documentation—these and many other complex operational tasks are exactly what MiDFUN addresses. Drawing on management experience from many factories and years of research and refinement, MiDFUN delivers a practical toolset that helps enterprises break through bottlenecks and gain advantages in operations management.
Equipment Maintenance and Upkeep
Make production equipment the most vital, peak-performing front-line player on the shop floor. An effective in-plant equipment maintenance plan avoids ineffective repairs, thoroughly eliminates the losses and waste of equipment downtime, and drives equipment utilization to the highest efficiency—raising the enterprise’s competitiveness.
Machining Know-How and Document Management
Digitize the technical management of production machining: consolidate the valuable experience of veteran masters, record machining know-how from trials and pilot runs, and log the results of machining-technology experiments and improvements. This gives newcomers a fast learning path and builds a production-technology knowledge database (KM), so that critical manufacturing skills can be passed on through experience. It also brings e-management to cumbersome machining procedures and technical documents, with convenient retrieval functions for quickly accessing the relevant technical information. Combined with rigorous access-permission management, it keeps technical information more reasonably protected.
Cutting Tool, Mold, Jig & Fixture, and Consumables Management
Cutting tools, molds, jigs and fixtures, and lubricants are critical yet cumbersome production consumables to manage across all manufacturing plants—machining, mold stamping, plastic injection, and more. They pose a major cost-control challenge for management and are a key factor in avoiding the risk of defective production. MiDFUN TPM provides an end-to-end flow: tool/mold/consumable usage setup → requisition operations → production machining records → tool/mold life management → production cost analysis → machining-history management → evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of purchased consumables. It is the best support tool for shop-floor machining supervisors, the materials department, the tool/mold room, and management, and it becomes the best shared language for company-wide participation in TPM productivity-improvement activities.
TPM.MSA.HRM Optional Modules
Acting on customers’ guidance and suggestions, MiDFUN has integrated existing manufacturing needs—the [MSA Instrument Calibration and GR&R Management System], [TPM Equipment Maintenance and Jig & Consumables Management], [Production Utilization and Performance Management and Production Technical Document Management], and [HRM Personnel Skills Management]—into a single system platform. These four core pillars of shop-floor management complement the gaps in existing ERP or Excel, while avoiding the excessive number and complexity of plant management systems, which drive up maintenance costs and overload manpower. With T.M.H, you reach the best results at the lowest system cost, in the shortest time, and with the least manpower, building an advantageous operating environment for the enterprise’s sustainable operation.
