Type-C Receptacle Automatic Production Line

Customer Industry: Consumer electronics & precision connectors

Customer Name: A top global consumer electronics manufacturer

Project Date: October 2024

 

 

Project Background

Driven by rapid iterations in product series and models, the customer aimed to improve the flexibility and utilization rate of automation equipment to achieve efficient product changeovers, and further enhance productivity and production management capabilities.

 

Solution

Mijoint built a standardized equipment platform that fixes common processes into standard modules, allowing diverse products to be produced based on a unified platform.

The line utilizes a dual-track structure and advanced welding process, and combines with an MES system for product data management, achieving data recording and traceability throughout the production process.

 

Core Results

Shortened changeover cycle: The production changeover cycle between different products was reduced from 90 days to 60 days, an improvement of 33%.

Increased productivity: The cycle time was reduced from 1 seconds to 0.8 seconds, boosting efficiency by 20%.

Reduced labor input: Operators per shift were reduced from 4 to 2.

Improved equipment utilization rate: Supports the use of a single standardized platform for different products, reducing repeated equipment investment.

Enhanced production management capability: Achieves product data binding and production process traceability via MES system integration.

Improved production continuity: Enables non-stop production during material reloading.
