Production output real time data monitoring based on internet of things (IOT) at automotive part machining line

Abstract

DRB HICOM Berhad is currently facing challenge which is lack of accuracy and real time information on their machining output data. With a new era of the Internet of Things (IoT), it may reduce hassle for better productivity and quality. This paper proposes on Internet of Things (IoT) based real-time monitoring data production output at machining line in which the output parts will be monitored over a webserver using internet and will notify workers when a breakdown occurs through hand phone notification. The system is designed to collect data automatically such as plan vs actual goods, reject output and breakdown time and display them on OLED board as well as on webpage for the workers and management to see and monitor it easily without being in the working line area. The data from this should be transmitted to the management without human intervention. Moreover, it also offers a better solution to the workers and management to know the condition of the machining line and can take immediate preventive measures. The efficiency of the machining line can be improved gradually as a result of better system. Hence, the real-time monitoring data production output at machining line will help the company to generate higher revenue, obtain faster and accurate production data.
