Summary: | 碩士 === 中原大學 === 企業管理研究所 === 97 === The purpose of this study is to evaluate on the integration of RFID technology and the current connector manufacturing management system. The impact on the efficiency of production is also the focus for this assessment. In fact, this study has two phases.Firstly,the SRI analysis will simulate different situations based on different factors. After the simulation is done, an experiment will proceed to show the difference of the KPI as if the RFID technology were implemented.
A standard “Scenario Analysis” will be applied under different circumstances in order to provide a simulation of different context. In order to avoid the major errors and extreme cases of neglect, this study will obtain the relevant database from a large number of connector production systems. Other related info could be acquired from experts in the industry as well. During the official discussion with the experts, we could further realize the impact from the uncertainties of the RFID system integration and it could become one of the key factors to the production efficiency. Therefore, the simulation will refine the whole process and speed up the lead-in of the RFID.
The experiment will be done based on the actual plant distribution to construct the practical requirements of RFID systems.The analysis of the connector production process and the management requests will be done first in order to simulate the whole RFID component production process. Once the experiment is done, we could further collect and compare the data to derive the KPI for benchmarking purpose.
Lastly, this study will analyze the various situations under all the opportunities and threats. In order to explore the topic into more depth, all the opinions and views will be summarized. If the KPI-effectiveness was proved by the experiment, the connector vendors could specifically point out the feasible strategy of RFID management development including the following:
The result of the KPI performance after manufacture system adopted the RFID management:
1. The efficiency of the material turnover ratio has improved by 7.7% due to the superior inventory control of the products and raw materials.
2. Enhance the operational efficiency of mold and shorten the work time on the module by 66%.
3. Reduce the frequency of rework and losses by enhancing the ID ability of the materials. The overall improvement is close to 14% upgrade.
4. Improve the entire production cycle of the retrospective monitoring quality and response time. The result is a 5% increase in utilization rate.
5. Enhance the utilization of manpower 1%
Studies found that the experiment had proven RFID could reduce the burden ofproduction line staff and improve the quality management. The database could be stored via the electronic sensor in order to control the quality and maintain the efficiency. In the aspect of scheduling and employee transferring, making things digital could definitely reduce the burden of HR personnel and decrease the overall cost for the company.
The conclusion for this research is that all the data could be transparent and easy for access. The data transparency has allowed RFID to retrieve info from the database which connects to the computer system of the MIS department. Furthermore, we can utilize the reports from MIS to see if the RFID system had met the KPI or not. Therefore, it is obvious to see that RFID system is a very powerful tool for production management and data access. It will certainly bring lots of benefits to the connector industry.
