Tooling Control Overview

42Q tooling control integrates with MES 101, CMMS, and MESWeb, to provide ultimate control and traceability for factories that utilize tooling equipment (e.g. test jigs, test fixtures, solder paste stencils and squeegees, vacuum blocks) in conjunction with their assets.


Tooling Modules


Tooling is completed within several 42Q modules. The Tooling Control module, housed inside CMMS Asset, is used by engineers to define maintenance profiles and usage parameters. Tooling Mapping associates MES 101 data (production part numbers, process, location) with tooling equipment, in order for 42Q to count usages by scan activity. Tooling Load/Unload captures tooling usage as production operators scan units at the mapped location. Finally, plants can view a complete unit history of all tooling activity in the Tooling Where Used feature, located within CMMS Reports. Plants utilizing Tooling Control as a standalone feature without MES 101 can manually track tooling use in the Manual Update Usage module.

 

Workflow

  1. Tooling configuration details are input in CMMS Assets.
  2. Operator scans the tooling part number at the Load/Unload station.
  3. 42Q’s MES 101 event broker broadcasts the unit move transaction to CMMS.
  4. CMMS validates the tool to ensure:
    • the selected tools are correct
    • the selected tool(s) meet defined usage requirement.
  5. If tools are expired, CMMS sends a MFG on hold request to MES 101 to stop production.
  6. The engineer must then resolve the issue by:
    • loading the correct tool or
    • completing maintenance on the current tool.
  7. Tooling is validated, the MFG on hold is released, work order is closed, and production resumes.
  8. Tooling details are now reflected in Tooling Where Used (CMMS Reports) and at the unit history record (MESWeb).
  9. If a standalone system is employed, loading/unloading and tooling validation (Steps 2 - 4) are completed manually in Manual Update Usage.

Configuration Requirements

 

Because Tooling Control operates within several modules, configuration requirements involve multiple steps. This work instruction outlines the following configuration details:

  • MES 101 Configuration (How to configure SFDC data for Tooling Control)
  • CMMS(Asset) Configuration (How to set usage/expiration data for the production tool)
  • Tooling Mapping (How to connect SFDC to Tooling to ensure data exchange)
  • Load/Unload Tooling (How to load/unload tooling on the Production Line)

 

MES 101 Configuration

 

 

 

SFDC Configuration: Create Product Route

 

SFDC configuration main page.png

  1. Navigate to: Shop Floor Control > Configuration > SFDC Configuration.
  2. Open the SFDC Configuration main page (see figure above).
  3. Utilize the SFDC submodules to configure production data: Location, Part Number,Production Route, and Data Editor.
  4. For the purpose of this work instruction, the following test data applies, and will be referenced throughout:
  • Location1:S367
  • Location2:S368
  • Product Route:FC0115
  • Part Number:WQ15PN

Shop Order Control: Create Shop Order

  1. Navigate to: Shop Floor Control > Production Control > Shop Order Control.
  2. Open the Shop Order Control page to set the Shop Order.
  3. For the purpose of this work instruction, (Shop Order Number: TB0115) with (Part Number: WQ15PN) was created (see figure below).
  4. This Shop Order number (TB0115) will be used to map SFDC to the Tooling submodule of CMMS.

 

Figure: Example Shop Order

Shop order control - shop order.png

CMMS Configuration

 

CMMS uses a parent/child relationship between Assets and Asset Types; this allows plants to batch upload asset information and assign maintenance to similarly trained technicians. Tooling Control uses the same relationship, and relies on the following rules to make the connection:

  • Tooling Part Number = Asset Type
  • Tooling ID = Asset

Therefore, we will need to create an Asset Type (Tooling Part Number) first, followed by a Tooling ID (Asset).

 


Configure Tooling Part Number in Asset Type

 

  1. Go to Shop Floor Control > Configuration > CMMS - Asset to open the Asset main menu.

 

Figure: Asset Type Menu

CMMS asset main page.png

 

  1. Select Asset Type to open the Asset type page.
  2. Select Add to add a new Asset Type.

Figure: Add a new Asset Type

Add new Assettype.png

 

 


Add a New Asset Type Form

  1. Input the following:
  • Asset Type: Add a name for the specific tool type (e.g. Jig Control) (see figure above).
  • Asset Category: Select or Input the Tooling Category Name (e.g. jig, stencil, squeegee).
  • Description: Add a description that easily defines the type of tool.

Note: The Asset Category field defines the Asset Type as a Tooling Type. Asset Category establishes a parent relationship between the Tooling PN (Asset Type) and Tooling ID (Asset ID) for traceability and reporting purposes. 

Configuration Note: Asset Category fields must be added when the Asset Type is created (Add Asset Type). Once they are added, they will be available in the drop-down menu to select for future configurations. Asset Category is reserved for Tooling Types.

  1. Select Save.
  2. The new Asset Type is successfully created.
  3. Select Edit to add details to the newly created Asset Type.
  4. Select the Maintenance tab to configure the Asset Type's usage/expired information.

Asset Type Maintenance Tab

 

Three kinds of maintenance can be configured on the Asset Type. As a general rule, plants will select only one type of maintenance for each maintenance tool.

  • Maintenance by Usage
  • Expired Date Control
  • Periodic Maintenance

Select the maintenance type by activating the checkbox next to the Maintenance Type Heading. Default value is unselected.

Maintenance By Usage

 

Complete the fields to define maintenance thresholds according to usage.

  • Max Usage Threshold: This is the maximum usage value allowed for the Tooling type. If the tool's current usage exceeds the maximum usage defined, this tool requires repair. In situations where the usage exceeds maximum thresholds, CMMS sends a notification to MES101. MES 101 then places a manufacturing hold at the tooling's location. Scanning at that location will be disabled until the tooling is repaired or replaced.

 

  • Interval Control: (Regular Interval or Irregular Interval). Interval Control defines the maximum usage threshold's order. Select Regular if the Tool's usage thresholds do not change (e.g. 100 signifies that the tool requires maintenance after every 100 uses). Select Irregular Interval if the usage threshold changes between each maintenance. Irregular Intervals require the Usage Milestones field to be completed. When Regular Interval is selected the Usage Milestone field is unavailable. See Milestones for a detailed example of an Irregular Interval.

 

  • Interval Usage Times: This field defines the time span between usage status checks (e.g. check points). For example: Max Usage Threshold is 100, Interval Control is Regular Interval, andInterval Usage Times is 20, so the usage check point will be 20,40,60,80,100.When the tooling usage reaches 20,40,60,80,100, the system will create maintenance work order. Note: This field is only available when Regular Interval is selected in the Interval Control field.

 

  • Usage Milestones: This field is mandatory when Irregular Interval is selected in the Interval Control field. Usage Milestones for Tool A are defined as "30, 80, 100," signifying the usage check point is every 30, then 80, then 100. When tooling usage reaches each milestone (30, 80, and 100), the system will create a maintenance work order. In this example the fields will be completed in the following way: Max Usage Threshold = 100, Interval Control = Irregular Interval, Usage Milestones = "30,80,100." Note: Usage Milestones are listed in a row, with commas separating them. Note : This field is not available when Regular Interval is selected as the Interval Control.

 

  • Warning Threshold: This field defines when a notification should be sent to the stakeholders (lower limit), and when the line is placed on manufacturing hold (upper limit), based upon the Interval Usage Time defined.
  • Example Part 1: Max Usage Threshold is 100, Interval Control is Regular Interval, and Interval Usage Times is 20, so the usage check point will be 20,40,60,80,100. When the tooling usage reaches 20,40,60,80,100, system will create maintenance work order.
  • Example Part 2: Warning Threshold is 5, so the system will send an alert email with the message such as "the tooling needs to be repaired" to the associated stakeholder group when the tooling's current usage falls below 15 (lower limit = 20-5=15).  If current usage time is more than 25 (upper limit = 20+5=25), the system will send a hold command/information to the MFG production line, and production will be halted until the tooling repair work order is completed.

 

  • Usage Checklist: Define the checklist to assist the technician in the tooling maintenance.

 

  • New Asset Status: Define the Status of the Asset/Tooling. Choices include:
    • Obsolete: Tooling has been removed from the production line.
    • Spare: Tooling is not currently in production, but is available for use if needed.
    • In use: Tool is currently running on the line.
    • In Maintenance: Tool is currently being aligned/repaired.
    • Break Down: The tooling is not functioning properly; a repair work order has been assigned.
    • To be reviewed: The tooling maintenance requires approval from supervisor.
    • Default Value = To be reviewed

Note: Asset Status field is manually completed by the Assignee and/or the Approver when toolings are replaced.

 

Maintenance By Expired

 

Complete the fields to define maintenance thresholds according to time periods.

  • Expired Period (Months): The number of months from the manufacture date when the asset will expire and require maintenance. The following example illustrates an expired period of 12 (months). If the Manufacture Date is 2019-01-30, (Note: Manufacture Date is defined when the user defines the Asset: CMMS Asset > Asset > Add), this Asset will expire on 2020-01-30, 12 months after 2019-01-30.

 

  • Expired Checklist: Attach the repair checklist the technician should follow to complete maintenance on this tool (asset).

 

  • New Asset Status: Define the Status of the Asset/Tooling. Options include:
    • Obsolete: Tooling has been removed from the production line.
    • Spare: Tooling is not currently in production, but is available for use if needed.
    • In use: Tool is currently running on the line.
    • In Maintenance: Tool is currently being aligned/repaired.
    • Break Down: The tooling is not functioning properly; a repair work order has been assigned.
    • To be reviewed: The tooling maintenance requires approval from supervisor.
    • Default Value = To be reviewed

 

 



Maintenance By Period

 

Complete the fields to define maintenance thresholds according to calendar dates. Note: This configuration mirrors configuration options for CMMS assets.

  • Repeat Every: Define the number of Repeat cycle.
  • Repeat Type:The choice values are Day, Month, Year.
  • Grace Period: This is number of the grace period. For example, select Repeat type to day, last maintenance date is 10/15/19, Repeat Every is 10,Grace Period is 1, when reaching 10/24/19 system will create maintenance work order automatically.
  • Grace Type: The choice values are Day, Month, Year.
  • Periodic Checklist: Attach the checklist for the technician to mark when completing the maintenance.
  • Grace Orientation: Define the orientation for grace, choice values are Backward/Forward, Backward.
  • New Asset Status: Define the Status of the Asset/Tooling when repair is complete. This field is completed by the technician assigned. Options include:
    • Obsolete: Tooling has been removed from the production line.
    • Spare: Tooling is not currently in production, but is available for use if needed.
    • In use: Tool is currently running on the line.
    • In Maintenance: Tool is currently being aligned/repaired.
    • Break Down: The tooling is not functioning properly; a repair work order has been assigned.
    • To be reviewed: The tooling maintenance requires approval from supervisor.
    • Default Value = To be reviewed
  • Assigned Group: Define the group to complete the maintenance on this tool.
  • Request Group: Define the group who have permission to request a repair work order for this tool who request the tooling maintenance requirement.
  • Comment: Users can add any additional information in this field.

Add the fields accordingly, then click Save to save the configuration to CMMS Database.

  1. Complete the columns according to the Tooling ID:
  • Maintenance Needed: The Maintenance Needed checkbox determines whether the tool's usage will be monitored by the system. If left unchecked, no usage for this tool will be monitored.

 

  • Inherited from Asset Type: When checked, all usage parameters defined in the corresponded Asset Type will automatically be populated for this asset. Users can untick the Inherited from Asset Type checkbox, then manually set the special configuration for the Asset. See Asset Type Maintenance Tab for instructions.

 

 


Tooling Mapping

 

The Tooling Mapping module is necessary to create an association between the product's Part Number (associated with the Shop Floor ID and configured in MES 101) and the Asset Type (Tooling Part Number). This connection allows the system to identify tooling usage counts via scan activity on the Product's Part Number. Tooling Mapping connects tooling requirements to conduit, 42Q's Production Scanning portal.

 

  1. Navigate to: Shop Floor Control > Configuration > Tooling Mapping.

  • *Qty: The quantity of toolings (jigs/stencils) for the Tooling Part Number (defined as Asset Type) that will be loaded during this Process/Location.

Note: QTY Example: If this Qty is set to 2, the user must load 2 toolings at By Use tooling load; otherwise the location will remain in mfg hold status.

 

  • *Panel Qty: This is the quantity of serial numbers in one panel.

Note: The Qty setting is useful in factories that scan panels that contain multiple boards. In this situation, the Quantity can be set to reflect one SN for the entire panel, thereby eliminating extra usages being falsely recorded.

 

  • *Check Mode: Default selection is By Unit Move. System records tooling loads (usages) when the unit moves to the location.
  • *Control Mode: Select By Shop Order. By Part Number is not currently available. Tooling usage is recorded according to the Shop Order assigned to the production PN. 

 

  1. Input or select the fields, then use the checkmark to create a new tooling mapping.


Tooling Load/Unload

 

The Tooling Load/Unload module is used by the production operator. The production operator needs to load the tooling for the SMT machine before they start the production line. The plant must make sure all the necessary/correct tooling is loaded at the SMT machine, so the quality of the product is not compromised. The system validates that the proper tool is loaded and is maintenance is up to date.

 

  1. Navigate to: Production > Tooling Load/Unload to open the tooling load/unload main page.
