Better manage your plastic die casting mold fleet used at supplier plants.
Reduce costs related to plastic molding, which represented the second largest expense item in De’Longhi’s Operating Income Statement.
Gain control and visibility into the use of 1,600 plastic die casting molds that are used on 200 external presses at contractors, with the aim of measuring their productivity and knowing if the mold receives the prescribed maintenance.
Integrare completamente la programmazione delle presse esterne e delle presse interne, attraverso un unico programmatore e con il sistema gestionale esistente.
We have developed a digital platform (MATIX Cloud) for the collection and in-cloud management of information deriving from molds at third parties, with the aim of optimizing their management. The molds were equipped with special sensors (MATIX Box) that allow the collection of data relating to the functioning of the mould and sending them to the digital platform.
The platform processes and aggregates the collected data, sharing the necessary information with the process stakeholders (purchasing, programming, press department, quality, maintenance, continuous improvement).
The creation of the solution took place in two phases:
We have developed an operational roadmap, setting as a strategic objective the full integration of the production planning of internal and external presses.
In particular, the roadmap included:
Through the rapid prototyping methodology based on Lean Startup Approach, we validated the most suitable technical solution to collect operating data directly from the molds.
In particular, together with De’Longhi we have identified four fundamental KPIs to monitor:
Thanks to the adoption of MATIX, De’Longhi is now able to monitor its mold park with an error rate of less than 3% and a localization precision of less than 100m.
You can therefore know, even remotely:
In this way, it is possible to know if the mold is working correctly, what its actual productivity is (to optimize production and, consequently, costs), calculate the life expectancy of the mold, ensure that regular maintenance is carried out by receiving an alert if this is not the case, and reduce the production of waste and non-conformities.
MATIX EAM is a cloud-based digital platform for managing machinery, molds, and manufacturing equipment that simplifies asset lifecycle management by digitizing maintenance processes and automating efficiency analysis. This platform enables centralized and transparent asset management, facilitating access to information and improving collaboration among the various people responsible for plant operation.
MATIX EAM can complement MATIX Box: a compact IoT sensor designed to be installed on assets independently. This device collects data on utilization and production efficiency, transmitting this information to the cloud where it is aggregated and displayed in the form of graphs and dashboards. MATIX Box uses a high-precision accelerometer to measure impacts and movements, ensuring reliable and accurate data collection.
