In Booth 1325, CMP Advanced Mechanical Solutions Inc. (Chateauguay, QC) will demonstrate how their powerful Visual Knowledge Share (VKS) digital work instructions can help shops boost their productivity by standardizing their best practices and maximizing the quality of their products. VKS is a paperless solution that keeps knowledge in-house while making employees’ training more intuitive and effective. It was developed for industries that are facing the challenges of increasingly complex products and processes, lack of standardization, and knowledge loss due to an aging workforce and high turnover; all of which contribute to productivity failures and expensive quality issues.
These issues can now be settled with the VKS digital work instructions, which have increased productivity by up to 20 percent, reduced defects by up to 95 percent and provided 100 percent traceability while doing so. Present in over 30 countries with shops operating in various industries, these instructions have proven to enhance employee flexibility, reduce training time and generate more overall revenue for today’s smart factories. These are just a few of the many benefits for any shop.
VKS helps manufacturers to become smart factories by leveraging the latest advances in Industry 4.0, the fourth industrial revolution. Smart factories use data exchange and automation in manufacturing technologies such as cyber-physical systems, the Internet of things (IoT) and cloud computing. With VKS, facilities can connect their factory and systems for a seamless communication of data in real-time, ERP integration, machine connectivity and more.
The future is here and the hype is real. Industry 4.0, Smart Factories, IoT are creating an exciting era where technology helps industries reach new heights of performance by promoting intelligent, productive and profitable work methods.
