Molding Industry

Current issues facing the molding industry

It's difficult to balance mold making and mass production...

Molds are produced individually, but since the business uses molds for mass production, the ERP needs to support both individual order production and forecast production.

Managing the parts list is a hassle...

Different bills of materials and cost management methods are required for molds and mass production.

Managing intermediate work-in-progress is troublesome...

The factor that makes molding and pressing difficult is the management of intermediate products. How to manage molten cast products and plastics, which are intermediate products, becomes an issue.

Three benefits of implementing ERP

Both mold making and mass production are possible

繝ｻIntroduction of job order system 繝ｻIntroduction of die stop alert

Bill of materials management made simple

Shot and life cycle management

Simplified management of intermediate work-in-progress

繝ｻCost accumulation management

The benefits of implementation in numbers

40% improvement in lead time

By introducing Infor SyteLine, production plans were optimized, and the operating rates of molding machines and other equipment were visualized, enabling more efficient operation. As a result, production lead times were reduced, leading to a 40% improvement.
- Understanding the raw materials required for all production. Streamlining procurement.
- Calculating the required number of intermediate products in a single go.

30% reduction in intermediate inventory

In order to reduce lead times, there is a tendency to hold a lot of intermediate inventory, but as described above, by calculating the required quantity in a single go,
it is possible to identify the optimal production quantity and reduce inventory.
