Abstract

In the manufacturing industry, there is a transition to multi-item production for reinforcement of competitiveness. Therefore, the hybrid manufacturing technology is increasing. Especially, many efforts in production quality improvement are made through the adoption of the Manufacturing Execution System and ERP, so it is necessary to operate MES for prompt and effective management. Therefore, the adoption of MES is necessary. MES should improve ineffective parts in production activities while managing all stages related to production of products. If there is change in the process, the changed items should be reflected to the system. However, most manufacturing execution systems are operated passively and repetitively by system administrators. This study presents a model that system administrators can comprehensively apply reference information about production related requirements on specific line’s equipment to the same equipment of other lines. To practice the model, demands of MES administrators were organized, the current system’s screen is analyzed, data for applicable reference information are classified, the screens for blanket and selective applications are designed and realized, the reference information is registered to same equipment in all the lines in case of blanket application. The reference information is registered to selected lines in case of selective application. In the results of the presented model’s test, at first it wasn’t 100% successful due to exceptional situation that the wrong data exist in the database. The validity check function for the original data that causes the exceptional situation was added, which was notified to the system administrators so that they can correct the wrong original data. The equipment reference information blanket application was implemented, and it was 100% data process accuracy. In addition, the flexible response for application to production lines is possible thanks to the division of blanket application and selective application of reference information.
