Benefits of an Andon board
Production downtime and inefficient processes can result in significant costs. A digital Peakboard Andon Board helps to identify problems at an early stage and to counteract them efficiently. The continuous display of relevant information gives both machine operators and managers a clear overview of the current status of production. This makes it possible to immediately identify deviations in the process, to keep an eye on production goals and to initiate necessary measures directly.
In addition to real-time error detection, an Andon board also improves team collaboration. Employees can act proactively because they are always informed about current developments. This reduces unnecessary downtime and increases productivity sustainably.
The most important features of an Andon board
In addition, a digital Andon board enables:
- Instant fault detection through real-time data
- Optimizing production processes through transparent visualization
- Reducing downtime through faster responsiveness
- Automated or manual interaction using touch screens or buttons
- Integration of signal lamps for visual warning in case of faults
This is how the Andon system works
- Andon board: Visually displays the current production status and makes deviations immediately visible.
- Andon light: Uses a traffic light system (green, yellow, red) to indicate the status of machines or processes.
- Andon cord (emergency line): Enables employees to manually report a malfunction and thus trigger an immediate response.
Key figures on an Andon board
- Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE): A key figure for measuring production output.
- Cycle times: Comparison of target and actual values to identify deviations.
- Downtimes & error rates: Key indicators to reduce production losses.
- Production progress & goal achievement: A clear presentation of ongoing manufacturing processes and set goals.
