<\/path><\/g><\/svg><\/span>Production Scheduling<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Production scheduling involves the business processes responsible for organizing production activities in alignment with corporate plans and related economic-financial objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It consists of three subgroups of processes related to different time horizons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u21b3 Long-term Planning (Budgeting Demand Planning)
\u21b3 Medium-term Scheduling (MPS and MRP)
\u21b3 Short-term Scheduling (APS and MES)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where factories or service units are already set up and organized, Synesis can support further improvement by introducing and guiding the company in the use of advanced tools:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/g><\/svg><\/span>Workplace Optimization<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Workplace analysis involves optimizing production, which means producing more pieces within the same time (reducing cycle time) or producing the same amount with fewer resources, for example, in assembly lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To achieve this, operators must work in ergonomic conditions (avoiding MURI) and standardize processes (avoiding MURA) to ensure compliance with the assigned cycle time, performing only Value-Added Activities for the Customer (avoiding MUDA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Synesis uses innovative IoT 4.0 tools to support analysis and define new production methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Synesis follows a structured process of reviewing and developing Workplace Organization:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/g><\/svg><\/span>Autonomous and Professional Maintenance<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The goal of maintenance is to ensure that plants and machines are available and reliable, eliminating downtime due to breakdowns and faults, with minimal cost to the organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Partendo dai TPM come modello base, Synesis sviluppa una metodologia che suddivide le attivit\u00e0 manutentive tra:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>Autonomous Maintenance \u2013 performed by production staff<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>Professional Maintenance \u2013 performed by maintenance technicians<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>Predictive Maintenance \u2013 executed by IoT systems and tools<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The initial phase of the reorganization of maintenance processes includes an assessment that describes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>Maintenance methodologies applied across different plants<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>Plant performance (OEE, MTBF, MTTR where available)<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/path><\/svg><\/span>Maintenance costs and losses due to inadequate maintenance<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the assessment, our professionals will guide the client organization in defining the best procedures for autonomous, professional, and predictive maintenance to increase plant availability and improve production performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The management of machinery, based on TPM 4.0 principles, can greatly benefit from data analysis and measurements made available by technology. This enables the early detection of issues and malfunctions, allowing for preventive actions and thus ensuring safer and more efficient use of resources. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Industry 4.0 and energy management merge into a positive combination that creates synergies to increase company competitiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The use of integrated and interconnected systems for monitoring and controlling energy consumption and production parameters enables the system to identify energy waste and achieve higher efficiency levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With AI-based systems, it is possible to control plants dynamically using predictive models, yielding further savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Synesis consultants, qualified as Energy Management experts (EGE), support client organizations in Energy Management services to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Continuous improvement, or kaizen, is one of the pillars of all Lean models. Improving things\u2014changing them for the better\u2014is a necessity for organizations that must be developed with the correct methodologies to avoid costly mistakes in terms of both finances and the loss of employee engagement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every type of loss requires an appropriate approach: for instance, losses due to Non-Value-Added Activities are addressed with Muri-Mura-Muda methodologies, or losses due to equipment failures by investigating maintenance activities or usage practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Synesis provides support for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
