Fedd, a member of the Agon Electronics group, is a company specialized in the assembly of electronic boards, founded in 1980 to meet the needs of the aerospace and railway sectors. Facing growing productivity challenges, Fedd decided to adopt the KEYPROD solution to enhance its performance. Discover how, after a successful trial, the company fully committed to this digital transformation, thereby strengthening its operational efficiency and optimizing its performance.
Process Optimization
Fedd initiated its digital transformation by digitizing its files, then decided to take it further by focusing on optimizing its machines to improve the productivity and overall performance of its workshops. Before implementing KEYPROD, the company used a manual system to record machine stoppages, a tedious process that often proved inaccurate. Operators, relying on their intuition, did not consistently report micro-stoppages, which were deemed insignificant. This "outdated" approach compromised the real visibility of machine performance and made it difficult to make quick decisions to resolve productivity issues.
KEYPRODs Trial: A Plug and Play solution
To address its production challenges and identify time loss factors, Fedd decided to initiate a trial of KEYPROD's production monitoring solutions. Fedd quickly saw immediate benefits thanks to the ease of installation and the non-invasive integration of the solution.
This test, conducted on CMS machines, enabled the collection of real-time data, providing a precise analysis of downtimes and production anomalies. With this information, the company was able to better identify the micro-stoppages that were significantly slowing down production, thereby optimizing its efficiency.
Immediate and Concrete Results
The data collected by KEYPROD enabled Fedd to effectively prioritize repairs and adjust its processes, thereby reducing downtime. This approach led to a rapid return on investment and a significant improvement in productivity. With instant visibility into key indicators such as OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), operators were able to focus on essential tasks, minimizing productivity losses and optimizing workshop operations. Strongly convinced by these results, Fedd decided to extend the use of the solution across its workshops.
A Solution for All Industries
KEYPROD is not exclusively for EMS companies. Our solution is adaptable to all types of machines, whether old or modern, and enables performance improvements across various industrial sectors. This flexibility was a major advantage for Fedd, which not only reduced downtime but also gained precision in analyzing its performance.
An Invitation to Embrace Industry 4.0
Fedd's adoption of KEYPROD is a concrete example of the effectiveness of our technologies in the era of Industry 4.0. Thanks to KEYPROD, Fedd was able to quickly and efficiently transform its machines. Starting with a simple trial, the company saw an improvement in OEE, precise identification of breakdown causes, and increased productivity. We provide industries with the tools they need to optimize their production and make informed decisions, based on reliable real-time data.
