Industry 4.0, or the fourth industrial revolution, is profoundly changing the way companies manufacture, improve, and distribute their products. By integrating new data-driven technologies manufacturers are digitizing, automating and creating Smart Factories that are more productive, operator-friendly and material and energy efficient. Or in other words, a major leap forward in the transition to more sustainable industrial manufacturing.
Welcome to the era of Industry 4.0, Smart Factories and Atlas Copco Smart Integrated Assembly!
Agility to sustainability
The opportunities that can make all the difference to your customers and profitability.
Product mix
In the new and future factories, flexibility is becoming a key factor. The need of producing multiple product variants in the same assembly line create demands for quick re-balancing of the factory to adapt to the new products.
System complexity
Production systems are constantly becoming more complex, and as a result production critical operations depend on networked systems. The importance of managing configuration, software versioning, and access control will be vital to maintain quality control and uptime in production.
Human factor
There is a high dependency on operators to achieve the industry quality standards. With new technologies emerging in a fast pace, adoption goal to leverage the potential, systems must be user friendly and the vast amount of data created in the assembly process needs to be processed with the most important information presented to the operator.
Sustainability
Sustainability matters to your customers, employees, partners and stakeholders and is quickly becoming a question of survival. The answer is to do more with less by implementing more resource efficient manufacturing processes. But time is running out.
Everything under the sun
From the automotive industry on the ground to the skies of the aerospace industry.
Industrial manufacturers are implementing Industry 4.0 and the Smart Factory. And saving money and the environment in the process.
The Atlas Copco roadmap to the Smart Factory
Smart Integrated Assembly is our concept for industrial manufacturers looking to transform and implement Smart Factories. An offering including smart connected assembly tools for factories and field operations, fully integrated assembly line solutions from design to production, as well as a unique set of data driven services.
This unique holistic approach helps businesses develop quality assured and ergonomic operator-friendly production while minimizing waste, materials and energy consumption. Cutting costs while reducing climate changing emissions.
From the very first joint to the entire factory, here are the 1 to 5 steps in our Smart Integrated Assembly offering.
智汇装配
挑战
同一装配站里不同任务需要不同的工具，以及手动报告和质量问题相关的挑战。
解决方案
对每个工具启用不同的扭矩设置，完整的过程控制和符合人体工程学的装配工艺。
优点
减少每个装配站的工具数量，减少文书工作和工伤，提高生产效率。
挑战
操作员无法可靠地完成复杂操作，导致返工和召回，对操作员的培训成本高且耗时。
解决方案
采用带即插即用功能的防错系统。。
优点
降低质保和操作员培训成本，同时减少因操作失误造成的返工数量。
挑战
混合生产和产品多元化使得复杂性日益上升，进而使引发返工和召回的人为错误风险增加。
解决方案
实施经过验证的模块化、标准化解决方案以及自动化制造生产平台。
优点
实现解决方案和流程的可拓展，提高柔性和生产力，缩短适应产品组合变化的时间，同时为操作员提供更可持续的、更安全的工作场所。。
挑战
难以准确定位生产线中出错的位置，相关检查十分耗时，且配置变更时缺乏数据追溯。
解决方案
让数据在制造过程中的任意环节均易于获取、直观可视且易于分析，从而实现完整的可追溯性。
优点
实现更高的生产效率和简化的再平衡，从而减少召回数量和停机时间。
挑战
产品种类不断变化，因而需要更灵活、适应性更强的生产线，缺乏充分利用来自多个系统的运营数据的能力和经验。
解决方案
应用基于行业标准协议和数据分析解决方案的完整集成化技术生态系统，自动提供易于理解的建议并发出通知，使潜在问题尽早得到关注。
优点
实现生产线的实时再平衡，提高正常运行时间和质量，并使工作流程和步骤更具富有成效。
每一个装配过程均始于第一次紧固，第一次就要拧紧。
