Abstract

The importance of proper organization of the enterprise’s tool supply increases with the increase in its size and significantly affects the efficiency of the main production. The success of the entire enterprise, the quality of products, the rhythm of work and profitability largely depend on the correct organization of the tool supply. The main tasks of the tool supply: timely and uninterrupted provision of workshops and workplaces of the main production with high-quality technological equipment and tools (cutting, measuring, auxiliary tools); improving the quality of equipment and organizing its rational operation; reducing the cost of manufacturing, purchasing, storing and operating equipment; organization of sharpening and restoration of the tool. An automated system is required to solve all tasks related to control and management of the company’s tool supply. This article discusses the construction of a unified tool support system for a large enterprise and the results achieved by the authors on its development.

Highlights

Existing tool accounting systems do not track the tool at all stages of its life cycle, only from receipt at the factory to storage in the shop
Technologists can use the same type of tool from different manufacturers in the technical process, which will complicate the process of purchasing tools and increase the inventory of tools in warehouses
Much attention is paid to the development and analysis of tool usage [4,5,6,7,8], the analysis and search of unused tools, the formation of a knowledge base structure of the tools, the need to integrate tool support and existing product lifecycle management (PLM) and enterprise resourceplanning (ERP) systems [8,9,10,11,12,13,14]

Summary

Introduction

Existing tool accounting systems do not track the tool at all stages of its life cycle, only from receipt at the factory to storage in the shop. The standard scheme for moving tools to the shop is as follows: purchase > acceptance on the company's balance sheet > sending to tool-distribution storerooms > issuing tools at the request of workers. The tool is immediately issued to the workers just by writing in the log book. The following questions arise in the process of such accounting:
