Assembly
Ramp lines faster, prevent quality issues, and lower the cost of daily operations.
Ethon redefines productivity for Assembly
| The Problem | How Ethon solves it | The Outcome |
|---|---|---|
|
Hours wasted on manual analysis of disconnected data
|
Data Layer: Unifies production data for factory-wide visibility
|
Real-time insights and decisions, no manual preparation
|
|
Persistent quality issues and slow ramp-ups
|
Root Cause Analysis workflow: Identifies true root causes, gives prescriptive actions and parameter guidance
|
Faster resolution, higher yield, and stable ramp-ups
|
|
Inspections are slow, inaccurate, and prone to false negatives
|
Quality Inspection workflow: 10 minute setup for reliable defect detection with computer vision
|
Lower cost of quality and reduced legacy system spend
|
|
Equipment issues are addressed after failures or downtime
|
Early Fault Detection workflow: Anomaly detection with preventive actions
|
Less downtime and more stable production
|
|
Hidden bottlenecks, routing issues, and variant-driven delays
|
Production Traceability workflow: End-to-end traceability and material flow mapping
|
Clear flow, resolved bottlenecks, and shorter lead times
|
|
Expertise is lost when skilled workers change roles
|
Knowledge Hub: Process logic is captured and embedded
|
Retained, standardized, and scalable know-how
|
Proven results from the shop floor
