DAZHONG

In 2011 installed an Eton 5000 system with a custom-made product carrier. The system has 20 workstations and 15 feeding buffer stations which gives the Eton software complete control of sequencing in the production. This has helped IAC secure and optimize their delivery performance to Volvo. IAC also experienced diminished overproduction and work in progress due to real-time information about all units in production.
Since the Eton System now manages all material transportation, manual handling of products has been reduced dramatically. This has led to less damage to products and lower cost of quality.
The Eton System is mounted in the ceiling. This has made about 300m2 of floor space available and reduced the need for forklifts. In the long run, IAC has seen a great reduction in work-related injuries and absence from work. Today all material is delivered to workstations that are ergonomically optimized. Providing a better working environment for employees.

Why the Eton System?

The production system before Dazhong was very traditional. Manually package the panels on pallets and transport them between workstations using forklifts. There are many typical challenges for this type of production. The biggest problem with Dazhong is that it requires a large amount of manpower. Secondly, due to manual handling causing damage to materials, the quality cost is high. Thirdly, the production system poses difficulties in panel sorting as it is difficult to track and track each panel throughout the entire process. All these challenges can be solved through the Iridium 5000 system.
