What can MOLDERP mold management software do for mold companies?
MOLDERP is the English translation of mold ERP. It is a management software for mold enterprises' informatization. It provides a comprehensive solution with mold manufacturing process as the core management, taking into account mold order management, design and engineering, scheduling, workshop operations, procurement, warehousing, finance, etc. The system aims to reduce mold opening costs, shorten mold opening cycles, and ensure mold opening quality. It completes the effective management of the mold production process through simple and easy-to-use operations.

Fangtian MOLDERP is an enterprise-level mold management software developed for the characteristics of molds, tooling, and non-standard industries. It is a mold management system that covers the entire process from mold quotation, design, planning, procurement, machining, clamping, mold trial, acceptance to use, return, repair, maintenance, and scrapping, and is extended to hardware, plastics, machinery and other industries to help customers achieve integrated management of their enterprises.
 
The system takes PDM design as the source, PS project as the main line, APS scheduling as the guide, MES application as the basis, and financial management as the center, so as to ensure the quality of mold opening, reduce mold opening costs, shorten the mold opening cycle and realize the systematic management of mold enterprises.

Main functions of MOLDERP mold management software
Moulds are the basic industry for products such as machinery, automobiles, electronics, communications, and home appliances. Their quality, precision, and lifespan play a very important role in the development of other industries. They have always been known as the mother of industry. However, in the general management of the mould industry, it is also generally considered to be an industry that is ruled by people, guided by masters, and difficult to institutionalize and computerize. As customers have higher and higher requirements for quality, delivery, cost, and service, how can we gain a better competitive advantage and profitability than our peers? How can we be informationized? Therefore, there is a MOLDERP management software. The MOLDERP management software manages the entire process from mould quotation, design, planning, procurement, manufacturing, trial mould, acceptance, commissioning, transfer to use, return, repair and maintenance until scrapping, solving the following management problems in the mould industry:

Mould design and technology
It is difficult for managers to accurately assess the design cycle of molds, there are many non-standard parts, frequent drawing changes, complex process flow, cumbersome BOM data extraction, etc. Especially for mold companies, most materials are only used for a certain project and are no longer used after use. It is almost impossible to compile material codes in advance.
 
Fangtian MoldERP system can standardize the design process, understand the design progress in real time, automatically notify relevant personnel to handle design changes and anomalies, and minimize the loss of design changes. It can be integrated with design software such as CAD to automatically generate BOM tables and part codes from drawings. Data sharing, directly view mold part drawings, and reduce the risk of loss during transmission. Supports multiple BOM data entry methods such as Excel format import and manual input. The system realizes the function of automatic coding of non-standard parts, and uses the fully automatic matching function to automatically generate material codes for newly added standard parts according to the pre-determined standard library, solving the problem of material coding in ERP implementation.
 
Mould quotation and cost analysis
When a customer asks for a quotation, how can a business unit perform cost analysis and quotation based on the sample or drawing provided by the customer? The mold analysis process generally analyzes the materials, labor, and costs of the male mold, female mold, shaft, and other parts one by one, and then adds a certain profit as the basis for the quotation. The mold quotation may not be the same as the order price. In addition, how to monitor the actual production cost of the mold in real time during the production process? Are the material costs and labor costs of each part exceeding the standard? Which processes were originally quoted too low? Repeated mold trials and repairs make it difficult to calculate the mold trial and maintenance costs.
 
By importing the Fangtian MoldERP system, the design cost, material cost, labor cost, outsourcing cost, management and sales cost, etc. can be mastered, so that the management can clearly understand where the cost of this mold is spent, which processes consume a lot of costs? Which items are inconsistent with the original mold quotation stage? Is the mold profitable?
 
Mold Manufacturing Scheduling
For a mold workshop, how to organize the production of dozens or even hundreds of molds at the same time? A mold has dozens of parts at least, hundreds of parts at most, and each part has several processes. How to arrange thousands or tens of thousands of process processing? When the workshop starts production, how to know the progress of the mold? Mold factories generally continue the management model of traditional mold workshops, lack of planned control, and lack of process and estimated working time guidance for key parts processing. They explain to customers and businesses based on "experience". The personal consciousness of the mold maker largely determines the manufacturing cycle of the mold. Since the processing process depends on the mold maker, rather than a clear processing plan guidance, once the mold maker lacks an overall grasp of the content of part processing, it is likely to cause missed processing or inadequate processing. In this way, rework is inevitable, which not only occupies machine tool resources but also delays the production progress of the mold.
 
Fangtian MoldERP system guides the mold design, processing, fitter, mold trial, type inspection and other operation processes through the project scheduling for molds and the progress scheduling system for parts, so as to achieve the goals of providing processing efficiency and processing quality. The system uses the most flexible billboards and Gantt charts to automatically allocate and manage production schedules. It helps production management to achieve excellence and control the entire production schedule. It optimizes production, optimizes delivery time, and controls the entire production process. It can predict delivery time and capacity distribution in advance, judge whether orders can be accepted, inserted, and whether they need to be sent out in advance, and can make all preparations in advance.
 
Real-time control of mold progress
The factory management cannot grasp the production status of each mold in the mold room in time, and the workshop supervisor cannot reflect the status of the mold room in time, which often results in the need to temporarily go to the workshop to understand the progress when customers ask questions; it is difficult to track which processing units the various parts of a mold are currently distributed in, which have been completed, and which have not; it takes a lot of time to organize and fill out reports, wasting a lot of manpower and material resources.
 
To avoid this situation, Fangtian MoldERP system uses touch screen click input or barcode data scanning to minimize the workload of operators while completing the time collection of parts receiving, loading, unloading, and transfer in each production unit. It is convenient for relevant personnel to accurately and quickly query the actual location and completion status of the parts, and provide accurate basis for fitters to assemble molds. In addition, the relevant progress of each unit is responded to the system in a timely manner, and then through the system's integrated analysis capabilities, the overall production status of the mold is intuitively displayed in different color charts. The real-time control of the mold manufacturing cycle is relatively guaranteed for subsequent mold modification, mold trial, mass production, etc., and the time to market of newly developed molds is greatly shortened.
 
Personnel and machine performance management
The performance management of personnel and machines in the mold workshop is almost blank. How to obtain the performance of mold masters? How to obtain the performance of each process? Since the mold industry generally operates in a similar "contractor" system, only focusing on delivery and completion time, regardless of the distribution of work in the middle, it is common that the molds that are easy to make and the molds with high unit prices are always made by the same people, or they can get high wages even if they do nothing at work. The machine utilization rate cannot be accurately statistically analyzed, and the operation time of the machine and the personnel cannot be compared.
 
The reason for these situations is human rule. When establishing Fangtian MoldERP system, we are establishing a scientific management model and a practical operation system for mold enterprises. The system can calculate the workload of employees, the utilization rate of equipment, and compare and analyze the planned working hours with the actual working hours, making performance management transparent, scientific and rational. Through the performance report of employees, the enthusiasm and centripetal force of employees in processing can be stimulated, and production efficiency can be improved. Each process supervisor is responsible for his or her own performance, and a layer-by-layer responsibility system is established.
