Introduction

The Shop Floor Data Collection System (SFDC) communicates interactively with the Customer Order Processing System (COPS), and Statistical Process Control/Statistical Quality Control (SPC/SQC). The Manufacturing Data System (MDS) makes the communication between these systems possible.

SFDC provides real-time information used by SPC/SQC and MESWeb to create quality control reports. The data configuration for SFDC PC is handled within the Manufacturing Data System (MDS), which is a complete factory automation system. The SFDC System uses barcode scanning, both manual and automated, to monitor and control a single product line or an entire plant. SFDC Configuration collects data, provides analysis, maintains unit histories, and controls product movement on the manufacturing floor.

The system provides Access Control between the modules of the application, including the functionalities of each page. The current version has an SFDC Configuration page which provides access to all screens and its functionalities (view, add, edit, delete, print and generate output file), and a View-Only mode screen which only supports view, print and output to file; to support these screen modes, the MDS user or group of users have specific profiles, which provides specific access to MDS screens and functionalities.

Assembly Maintenance

Assembly Maintenance defines the components or sub-assemblies that are merged to a main product. The Data Collection Locations where sub-assemblies are merged, and prompts displayed to the operator, are also defined. Assembly Maintenance tables are configured to perform serial, part, and location validation of items merged to the main product.

List Assemblies

Based on the actual SFDC Configuration, the application displays a list of all Assemblies.

To list assemblies, click on Assembly from the SFDC Configuration Maintenance menu.

NOTE: The user only has access to this module if it has been added to his/her profile

Figure 1: Assembly Maintenance main page.

Filter Assemblies

There are three available filter fields:

• Line
• Part Number
• Location

Enter desired filter criteria and click on Filter.

To clear the filter fields, click on Clear.

Figure 2: List and Search

The filter result is displayed in the Assembly list.

Add Assembly

The user must populate all mandatory fields when adding assembly steps. If the mandatory fields are not populated, an error message is displayed.

1. To add an assembly, click on Add button.

Figure 3: Add Assembly

The Assembly form is displayed.

Figure 4: Add Assembly Form

1. Select the appropriate Line, or click the Manage icon for Lines Maintenance. Populate the mandatory fields (in blue) by choosing the options from the drop down list. For line, it is possible add, edit or delete by clicking on Manage icon. Reference Section 1.1.2.1 Add Attribute Step for additional information.

1. Select, or enter, the appropriate Part. Click Save to create the assembly. Leave Part field blank if assembly will be configured for ALL Parts.

1. After this step validates this information in the database, the Assembly Step List page is displayed.

Figure 5: Assembly Step List

The Assembly Step List enables the following Tasks:

• Add Assembly Step
• Edit, Copy and Delete
• Print/Export Filtered Assembly Steps
• Install Local Assembly

Refer to the sections below for more information.

Add Assembly Step

This functionality adds an assembly step in the system.

• To add an assembly step, click on Add Assembly Step button.

Figure 6: Add Assembly Step

The user must populate all mandatory fields (indicated in Red) when adding assembly steps. If the mandatory fields are not populated, an error message is displayed.

Step: Number automatically generated by the Step Number function.

Component ID Prompt: The prompt displayed to the operator upon scanning the main assembly. This prompt should specify the sub-assembly being added to the main assembly. The prompt length can be up to 16 characters. This prompt is only displayed if the sub-assembly has not been previously installed at this station.

Note: If another Location has the same Process Name with the same Assembly sequence AND the main assembly is scanned there (because of a Manual Move), SFDC prompts for the sub-assemblies to be installed even if there were installed previously.

Note: If the OPTIONS ASM_BY_PROCNAME=YES option is installed in the Setup Data Editor Form, the component prompt is displayed for all Locations with same Process Name that is assigned to the Location in which the assembly is configured.

Component Id Mask: The serial mask of the sub-assembly. The maximum length of the data field is 40 characters. The maximum length of a single ID mask is 20 characters. Multiple ID masks are separated by a comma (,).

Reference Designator: The reference designator (or nomenclature) of the subassembly. This is a text string up to 22 characters in length. When a new Component ID prompt is entered for a step, this data field contains the same default value. The field is editable.

Tracked: Checked indicates the sub-assembly has existing history in the same database as the main assembly. UN-Checked indicates the sub-assembly does not have existing history in the same database as the main assembly.

Note: If checked, the Line and Component Location fields are enabled.

Part Number: The part number of the sub-assembly being added to the main assembly. It must exist in the Part Table and is only needed if the Component ID mask is the same for multiple products.

Location: Valid only if the sub-assembly is tracked. This is the Location where the sub-assembly is expected to be. Using this data field ensures the sub-assembly is ready to be installed into the main assembly.

The new assembly step is displayed in the list:

component

A component is a specific piece of data that appears on a label, for example: bar code, part numbers, graphic images, line or text. Hence, label components are broken down into several different types: text, graphic images, MDS database values, or a combination of text and database values.

framework

In software development, a framework is a defined support structure in which another software project can be organized and developed. A framework may include support programs, code libraries, a scripting language, or other software to help develop and glue together the different components of a software project.
