Now the concept of cloud MES in the cloud market is slowly getting hot, and some people don’t know what the cloud MES is. I heard that it can help companies successfully transform. The so-called "cloud MES", which is based on MES management + cloud platform storage + big data computing, is different from the general management system, cloud MES operation does not require a separate server to store and run, but through the cloud for data storage Finally, the calculated data is presented on the MES system, and the rendering end is generally PC and mobile.
For a long time, in the face of fierce competitive pressures, China's traditional manufacturing enterprises have gradually shifted from large-scale, low-cost to multi-variety, small-quantity, and customized, gradually moving from extensive management to lean management, such as ERP, CAD, and PLM. , OA and other information systems have been widely used in China's manufacturing enterprises, laying a solid foundation for China's manufacturing enterprises to achieve paperless, information-based management. However, with the rapid growth of labor costs in China, market competition is becoming more and more intense, and customer demand is becoming more and more personalized, and manufacturing companies are beginning to face increasing transformation pressure.
At present, Germany's "Industry 4.0" is being heatedly debated by the world's manufacturing industry. "Made in China 2025" is more concerned by the industry. The focus of the similarities between the two is in smart manufacturing. Intelligent manufacturing will trigger a new round of industrial revolution, and will also lead to profound changes in China's manufacturing industry. For manufacturing companies, increasing smart equipment, building intelligent production lines, and building smart factories have become the driving force behind new industrial optimization and upgrading and sustained economic growth. At present, the construction of intelligent factories in China's manufacturing enterprises is accelerating in an all-round way, and intelligent production lines and intelligent equipment have gradually been applied in medium and large-scale manufacturing enterprises. As the comprehensive information system of the workshop level, as the basic technical means for the enterprise to realize the digitization and leanness of the workshop production, the MES system has been widely used in medium and large-scale manufacturing enterprises and has achieved certain results.
With the enthusiasm of the concept, the MES market has shown an explosive growth trend. In addition to medium and large-scale manufacturing enterprises, more and more small and medium-sized enterprises are also turning their attention to MES. It is expected that the implementation of MES can help shorten the production cycle. Reduce production costs and increase efficiency. However, compared with medium and large-scale manufacturing enterprises, traditional small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises mostly have discrete production-oriented and process-assisted production characteristics. They are mainly produced in multiple varieties and small batches, with relatively low level of automation, and high quality and productivity. Depending on the skill level of the workers, automation is mainly at the unit level, such as CNC machine tools, flexible manufacturing systems, etc., lacking the infrastructure to use and operate the MES system. In addition, a complete MES system is expensive, SMEs may not be budgeted enough, and are reluctant to spend more on purchasing MES software, and even hire professional IT staff to maintain and update the MES system.
Therefore, for small and medium enterprises, cloud MES is more suitable. The main advantage of cloud MES is that the enterprise has multiple factories and multiple production workshops, and there is no need to deploy multiple systems; it can be opened for use on a monthly/annual basis, without excessive development time and cost, saving hardware facilities and manual maintenance costs; The MES system can be accessed anytime, anywhere. Cloud MES can help small and medium-sized enterprises to reduce investment and save costs, and help small and medium-sized enterprises to improve their ability to manufacture good products on time and in a small and multi-variety and more flexible production environment. At present, many MES vendors have started research in this area.
From the application point of view, the MES system based on public cloud is more convenient for SMEs to benefit from the advantages of using MES system. The MES system operates in an external data center and provides an operating terminal via the Internet. The service provider is responsible for installing, configuring, maintaining, and updating the MES system. Users only need to access the standard Internet access cloud MES, and enterprises can quickly deploy online at a lower cost. However, from the current actual situation, there are still some obstacles to the promotion and use of MES systems based on public clouds. The MES system is closely related to the real-time data on the site. Even if the Internet technology is developed and the network bandwidth is large enough, it can not meet the real-time requirements of the MES. The cost of setting up a dedicated network is relatively high, and once the problem occurs, the account is responsible. And compensation will also make the company very troublesome. Applications can only be considered if the requirements for real-time data are not particularly high. At present, the on-site pre-server plus cloud hybrid mode can meet the real-time needs of the site and meet the needs of cloud management.
From the current point of view, the establishment of cloud MES system is mainly based on private cloud and hybrid cloud mode, but the number is not large, plus most SME owners are still worried about cloud security, the change of ideas and the reception of new technologies. There is also a process, so it will take time for companies to select and apply cloud MES. It is believed that with the development of technology and the change of corporate concept, cloud MES will be recognized by more enterprises.
Incremental encoders provide speed, direction and relative position feedback by generating a stream of binary pulses proportional to the rotation of a motor or driven shaft. Lander offers both optical and magnetic incremental encoders in 4 mounting options: shafted with coupling, hollow-shaft, hub-shaft or bearingless. Single channel incremental encoders can measure speed which dual channel or quadrature encoders (AB) can interpret direction based on the phase relationship between the 2 channels. Indexed quadrature encoders (ABZ) are also available for homing location are startup.
