[0019] The order processing unit in the production management module can quickly receive and parse new production orders, extract key information, and interact with the database unit to quickly call the corresponding production process parameters and mold component configuration information. This enables the system to determine the production plan in a short time, greatly shortening the order processing cycle and improving the company's response speed to market demand.
[0020] The production management module also includes: The production scheduling unit optimizes the production plan, rationally schedules resources, improves production efficiency, dynamically adjusts the production sequence, and adapts to order changes and emergency orders based on order priority, production equipment status, and production capacity; The equipment monitoring unit monitors and collects the operating status data of the production equipment in real time. The operating status data includes the working parameters, fault information and maintenance requirements of the production equipment, and compares the operating status data with the standard status parameters to obtain the comparison result. When the comparison result shows an abnormality, an alarm signal is generated and an audible and visual alarm is issued to remind the operator to handle it to avoid affecting the production progress. Among them, the working parameters include the current operating speed and processing accuracy of the equipment, the fault information includes whether there is a fault and the type and severity of the fault, and the maintenance requirements include whether maintenance is required and the estimated maintenance time.
[0021] The process of optimizing production plan by production scheduling unit is as follows: The production scheduling unit establishes a real-time data connection with the equipment monitoring unit, continuously receives the working parameters, fault information and maintenance requirements of the production equipment, and classifies and organizes them, establishes an equipment status database, and records the operating status history of the equipment in different time periods, so as to analyze the performance change trend of the equipment later; Obtain order information from the production order obtained by the order processing unit, including order number, mold frame model, quantity, delivery deadline, and customer priority, and pre-process the order information, calculate the remaining production time of each order, and determine the initial priority weight of the order according to the customer priority and the remaining production time; wherein the remaining production time is the delivery deadline minus the current time; According to the equipment status database and production process parameters, the theoretical production capacity of each production equipment in different time periods is calculated. The theoretical production capacity is the number of mold frames that can be produced per unit time. Based on the equipment maintenance plan and equipment failure history, the theoretical production capacity is corrected to obtain the actual available production capacity. Based on the initial priority weight of the order, the mold base model and the corresponding production process complexity, the heuristic algorithm is used to preliminarily sort the orders to obtain the order sorting results, including the preliminary sorting with the shortest processing time as the priority and the preliminary sorting with the earliest delivery date as the priority; According to the order sorting results and the actual available production capacity of the production equipment, the orders are allocated to the appropriate production equipment, the estimated production start and end time of each order is determined, and the initial production plan is generated; The initial priority weight calculation formula of the order is as follows:

If the capacity is sufficient, add corresponding production tasks based on the original plan. If the capacity is insufficient, adjust the order production time to meet the demand. If the delivery deadline is advanced, the order will be arranged on equipment with faster production progress first, and the production time of other orders will be shortened if necessary to ensure that the changed order can be delivered on time; If the mold model is changed, re-evaluate the production process requirements and required production resources for the mold model, and adjust equipment allocation and production time; For emergency order processing: When receiving an urgent order request, the production scheduling unit determines the priority weight of the order based on the customer's urgency, order profit, and impact on the company's reputation; evaluates the adjustable space in the current production plan, and the orders that can be suspended with less impact; according to the priority weight of the order, mold frame model, and production process requirements, the urgent order is reasonably inserted into the current production plan, and the production sequence and resource allocation of related orders are adjusted to obtain the order production plan; Among them, if the production resources required for an emergency order conflict with existing orders, the resource conflict will be resolved by adjusting the order production time to give priority to ensuring the resource needs of the emergency order.
[0028] The process of dynamically adjusting the production sequence is as follows: During the production process, the production scheduling unit continuously obtains the real-time operation status data of the equipment from the equipment monitoring unit, including the equipment operation status and processing progress. The equipment operation status includes normal operation, shutdown, and failure, and the processing progress is the proportion of the completed production tasks to the total number of orders. At the same time, it interacts with the data traceability module to obtain the actual execution status of the production process parameters in the production process, so as to timely discover abnormalities in the production process. If a device fails, the orders being produced on the device will be immediately transferred to the available devices, and the production sequence and estimated delivery time of the related orders will be adjusted according to the estimated time for fault repair. If it is found that the order production progress is lagging behind, analyze the reasons for equipment failure and unreasonable production process parameters, and take measures such as adjusting production process parameters, increasing equipment investment, and optimizing production processes to speed up production progress; If the production schedule of an order is ahead of schedule and there is a risk of delay for other orders, adjust the production sequence, arrange the production of orders that may be delayed in advance, make full use of production resources, and ensure that all orders are completed on time; Among them, the production scheduling unit re-evaluates and optimizes the production plan every hour, adjusts the production sequence and resource allocation according to the updated equipment status, order execution status, order changes and emergency orders, to ensure that the production plan always remains in the optimal state and adapts to various dynamic changes in the production process.
