1.Background and philosophy

●Our philosophy is to provide pleasure to our customers

through our products.

●For that purpose, it is necessary to provide products

with new value exceeding customer expectations

in a timely manner in the new model development.

"operational efficiency" and "quality improvement" are needed


Set the Target value

Consider

structure / specification

Verify suitability of

Release drawing

・Designers want to catch omitted examination items

(Example: Design Process for parts)

Design without waste and rework

Design with waste and rework

・ Rework caused by omission of examination item

・Time wasted on information retrieval

・Manual input is too time-consuming

・Rework caused by

mistaken inputs



3.Current problems


Consider

Release drawing

・ Rework by omission of examination item

⇒①*”Mieruka” for process

Solve these three challenges by developing a system and approach

designed to eliminate waste and rework



* “Mieruka for Process” “Mieruka” mean is

“identifying problems and bringing them to foreground”

7.Requirements for SYSTEMs



User requirements are as follows: • Easy implementation of in-house tool

• Easy implementation of various tools o Database, PDM Systems, CAE tools, Office Tools, CAD, HPC, Job Scheduler, etc.

• Openness of architecture

• Flexible rearrangement and control of process by external tools

• Future development potential

• Can use system for a long time (Continues to evolve)

• GUI (easy to use)

Three years ago, we researching then Argo-Graphics (one of Distributor in Japan), introduced for us of PHX Products, ModelCenter and CenterLink, then we started the Proof-of-Concept!



Requirements for the tool are as follows: o Process flow can be easily improved according to designer

specifications

o Can be linked to existing database or other data sources

o Web GUI is best solution for easy operation and flexibility for

customization

o Performance


8.Why we chose MCC

• Firstly, we research and try Proof Of Concept for some tools.

• Reasons for selecting PHX

o Openness

• API preparation

• User can make Plug-In, etc…

o Flexibility

• Easy to control process

o Web architecture based system using modern technologies


*MCC=Model Center Cloud

9.Introduction of our Development System


• Main GUI image

• 1st select the Process Tab3

• 2nd user can see the all process list

• 3rd user can search the process
