We help industrial plant managers optimize the production process with rapid responses to emerging problems, improving process quality, as all operators can visually ensure that they can get immediate assistance to solve a problem at any time. area.
Lean manufacturing platform in real time
The ANDON system from MES Automation is a visual information platform for “lean” production, responsible for recording unexpected events that occur in a process, in real time, that compromise the continuity of operations, helping to improve operations. based on logical concepts of production systems.

Andon system
The ANDON System from MES Automation is a Visual Information Platform for “lean” production, responsible for recording unexpected events that occur in a process.
This is how the MES Automation ANDON system works
The moment the operator presses the wireless button, an event is activated that triggers an audible and visual indication (turret) that informs the supervisor that a stoppage has occurred. This information will be displayed on all display systems located in factory hallways. At that moment the recording of the machine stop time begins.
Next, the supervisor will carry out an analysis of the problem, if he can solve it, he will proceed to solve the problem, documenting what happened and ending the event, at which point the downtime ends. If the problem has a certain degree of complexity, the event can be escalated to other levels to request help from other departments.

Scope of an ANDON system
The MES AUTOMATION ANDON System helps operators and production managers investigate the root of the problems and take measures in a timely manner in a disciplined manner, to prevent the defect or abnormality from continuing to occur. The MES Automation ANDON system can help you:
Collect data and information that helps solve problems.
Actions and events are recorded in databases, in real time.
Standardize a care scheme, solution, and documentation of problems.
Monitoring response times and calls for help.
Standardize the reasons or reasons for the problems.
Automatic notification when time exceeds average solution time.
Tool makes it easier for the operator to request preventive or corrective help with visual control.
Escalation of events to support departments to receive specialized attention.
Generate automatic, real-time reports and event management indicators.

How does the ANDON system work?
Practical tool for simple and obvious communication to understand and improve production systems
Benefits of implementing an ANDON system
An ANDON system is very beneficial in the lean manufacturing process where data is sent directly to control rooms and has made it much easier for operators to control simultaneous operations in a relatively larger unit.
