Samsung Computers Implements Tecnomatix eMPower Solutions is Key China Plant
April 29, 2004 |Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Herzlia, Israel and Korea — Tecnomatix Technologies Ltd. announces that electronic manufacturing solution provider Samsung Computers has implemented eMPower solutions from Tecnomatix Unicam, a wholly owned subsidiary of Tecnomatix Technologies Ltd., in its first Chinese computer manufacturing facility.
The implementation helps Samsung fulfill manufacturing traceability standards required by the plant's key customer, a major computer notebook/laptop provider.
Samsung is using the traceability management and material management modules of Tecnomatix Unicam's leading PCB Production Management system for business decision-making. It masks the complexity of managing and presenting critical information to electronics to help manufacturers better serve customers and meet regulatory demands.
The traceability management module helps Samsung Computers document a product's manufacturing history. By automating this data collection process, Samsung will reduce data collection costs and achieve simple, accurate reporting of component and PCB board traceability records.
The material management module tracks material from inventory through kitting, setup and verification with real-time inventory visibility to both quantity and location. The material management solution also manages and optimizes the feeder change over process. Samsung Computers has already seen return on investment (ROI) with faster changeover times and an improved verification process. Shortly after the implementation at Samsung, the material management module detected a loading error related to a non-conforming part. By alerting users of the non-conformance at an early stage in the manufacturing process, Samsung avoided having to either rework the entire lot, or have a far more costly product recall later on.
