Aluminum Profile Factory Production Planning and Delivery Management

【China Aluminum Network】 Production plan is a production activity that the company directs and coordinates according to market demand. It scientifically formulates indicators such as production scale, direction and objectives, and the output of the plan period and the input of corresponding resources. The allocation of production resources, at a lower cost according to the requirements of the technical requirements of the projected production of a delivery deadline to meet the market needs better quality products, in order to achieve the company's strategic objectives, this delivery term is what we commonly call Delivery period.

The determination of the lead time of aluminum profiles must meet two aspects: on the one hand, to meet the customer's requirements of “delivery period, quality, and cost”; on the other hand, it is necessary to carry out the three elements of production: “materials, personnel, and machinery and equipment”. Prepare, allocate and use properly. Delivery time has a very important influence on the production and operation of the company. It is not only the centralized reflection of customer requirements, but also the key link of inventory control and cost control. It is also the only way to enhance the competitiveness of the company's products. The following are the production plans and orders. Delivery management conducts simple analysis and discussion.

The delivery time of aluminum profiles consists mainly of the following time periods:

Aluminum production preparation time:

First of all, before the customer places orders, they must send the drawings of the molds that need to be produced to the technicians. The technicians will review the feasibility of mold opening. After the review, the drawings will be drawn by the drawing room, and the mold shop will start the production of the molds. After the customer orders are entered into the ERP system, the production workshops and related departments start production preparation according to the contents of the orders. For example, the smelting workshop begins to produce the alloy rods required for production orders, and the mold stencil starts to mold out to heat the squeezing shop, and the purchasing department starts ordering auxiliary materials.

Aluminum production operation time:

After all preparations are stopped, production begins to operate, and the specific production operation time is also related to material supply conditions, production processes, product quality, equipment and instrument operating conditions, and so on. In the production process, production management personnel need to contact the relevant departments to improve the manufacturing process while improving the production arrangement and personnel management. This will increase the operational proficiency of the operators and solve all problems in the production process in a timely manner. The production link is a key link in the delivery of orders, and it is also a time-consuming link. Any minor problems in the production process will cause orders to expire, so problems must be resolved in a timely manner. The abnormal process of order production must be handled within the specified time, which can effectively reduce the case of overrun due to untimely processing, and can also avoid production site congestion due to excessive backlog of waiting materials.

Aluminum inspection and packaging storage time:

Inspection of products is a very important part, and it is the guarantee of maintaining product quality and corporate reputation. Each process should be equipped with a special inspection personnel to inspect the product, which can greatly reduce the flow of defective products into the next process, to avoid unnecessary waste of manpower and material resources; layer inspection can also greatly reduce the flow of defective products into the market, maintenance of enterprises Reputation. However, a good product is not detected. While strengthening product inspections, it is also necessary to continuously improve the quality awareness of each employee and perform full self-inspection. Packaging and storage as a later stage of production, simple but also very important, the paste must be accurate, otherwise it will not be on the goods board, customer complaints have been returned, seriously affecting the reputation of the company.

Other reserved time:

In the expected delivery time, we must reserve the supply time of auxiliary materials, mold test time, and other factors that affect the production of orders, to avoid the emergence of orders due to a slight production anomalies, increase the risk of delivery of orders to avoid risks ability.

The production of a production plan is in fact a reasonable determination of the delivery of orders, the rational allocation of enterprise production resources, improve production efficiency, thereby reducing costs and improving the competitiveness of enterprises.

How can we reasonably establish the delivery date? First, the production plan must have a thorough understanding of the production process of aluminum profiles, be familiar with the process flow, and be able to predict the working time and the total production cycle required for each process in the current production situation. Only in this way can the order delivery deadline be accurately established. Secondly, the long-term customer's delivery date must have overall grasp. For some customers who frequently place orders and are very impatient, and some frequent orders require rapid delivery, but often produce goods and then do not pick up the goods after the customer must make a record, In doing so, we can better adjust the delivery date according to the actual production situation, reduce the production pressure caused by customers' delivery deadlines, and make the production plan more reasonable.

2, the amount of daily planning must be reasonable. The production capacity of each production workshop is rated, too little planning capacity, excess production capacity, so that the cost increases; too much planning, lack of production capacity, so that orders expire. Therefore, according to the actual situation of order conditions and workshop equipment, staffing, etc., the daily task volume of the production workshop must be determined, and part of the production capacity can be reserved while the production capacity can be roughly satisfied. This can prevent abnormal production period or jump orders due to rush orders. . We can formulate production plans according to the rated output of the workshop and schedule them according to customer orders. However, when we actually set up customer delivery dates, we cannot simply schedule customers according to the order in which the orders are placed. The number of daily orders and the weight of orders must be controlled. In a relatively balanced state. For example, if the dusting workshop makes 20 orders (different colors) per day, 300T can be produced; but 30 orders (different colors) can be made each day. Due to the time required to replace the different color powders, the production efficiency is reduced, and the output is greatly reduced. , the possible output is only 250T. Similarly, in a single color, the daily output may reach 350T or more, but the delivery of other customers will certainly be affected. Therefore, in the production plan and the determination of customer delivery, must be comprehensively considered, the daily plan volume (regardless of weight or quantity) must be reasonable, as much as possible to meet the workshop production efficiency and customer delivery.

3, we must consider the convergence of each process and production support. The production of a single order must be completed through a series of processes. The smooth connection between the upper and lower processes is crucial to production. For example, extrusion must produce blanks in accordance with the throughput of different surface treatment processes to ensure the smooth production of the whole, otherwise it will cause some surface treatment workshop billets to be jammed at the production site too much, and some surface treatment workshops will stop production without billet production. In addition, supporting production is also very critical. It can effectively increase production efficiency and lower production costs. There will be many models for an order. Depending on the size of the mold, blanks can be produced on different models. The amount of tasks for each model is different. A model with a smaller number of tasks is likely to be produced in advance. The model with a large number of tasks is also It is highly unlikely that the billet will not be produced within the specified time. The date of completion of the same order billet may be a little bit far behind. The post-process is generally performed with all single blanks being produced together, so that the billet produced in advance will cause a production site. Congestion, and at the same time the billets are placed for too long will cause surface oxidation or corrosion, surface treatment will seriously affect the surface quality; if produced in accordance with the order of billet production will result in an order in the surface treatment process multiple production, Not only does it seriously affect production efficiency, the cost will also increase substantially.

4. Keep abreast of the supply of raw materials and auxiliary materials in time, and set reasonable delivery dates. As the saying goes, clever women are hardly rice-free, and perfect plans without material protection cannot be implemented. In general, aluminum profile manufacturers generally have their own stable suppliers of auxiliary materials. However, due to various reasons, supply abnormalities will definitely occur. If these information cannot be mastered beforehand, they will make wrong judgments. , The production schedule and the delivery deadline for the formulation of the product must not be completed. The artificially created order will be overdue.

Nowadays, the market demand for aluminum alloy profiles is increasingly diversified. More and more orders are placed by customers, the delivery time is also getting shorter and shorter, and the insertion orders (urgent orders) are more and more frequent. This requires the aluminum profile production companies to continuously strengthen It plans to regulate and control capabilities, improve the coordination and flexibility of production, increase production efficiency, reduce production costs, enhance product competitiveness in the market, and thus remain invincible.
