With the rapid development of the manufacturing industry and the constantly evolving market demands, traditional enterprises have encountered numerous on-site challenges in their production management processes, hindering the implementation of Lean Production.

Aged factory equipment has become a primary headache for enterprises. On the production floor, some machinery is too outdated to be networked, with varying models, forcing companies to rely on manual recording of equipment utilization, production efficiency, and other data—resulting in low accuracy and efficiency. The wide variety of equipment models and numerous manufacturers make unified management a persistent challenge, inadvertently increasing the cost of equipment management and hindering the advancement of Lean Production methodologies within enterprises.

To address these on-site production challenges, Alpine System Integration (Dalian) Co., Ltd.'s Equipment Status Monitoring System leverages the Device Data Collector TS-10 to accurately collect data from the factory's existing Andon system, while maintaining compatibility with 90% of equipment on the market, thus eliminating the need for factories to purchase new machinery. Through the backend system LightHouse, the collected data is centrally managed and visualized into charts, enabling managers to monitor equipment utilization online. This solution is both cost-effective and convenient for enterprises, making it an excellent tool for factories to implement Lean Production.
