Hubei Xingfu Aluminum New Material Technology Co., Ltd. is affiliated with Xingfu Aluminum Group, which has 30 years of industry experience, focusing on the R&D and production of new industrial aluminum, with strong technical and financial strength. A total investment of 770 million yuan was made to build a new 100,000-ton new industrial aluminum production line project, with a total site area of 199,800 square meters and a total building area of 82,800 square meters.
Xingfu Aluminum's products are widely used in construction, transportation, packaging, electronics and other fields, and are sold well in domestic and overseas markets. With the continuous expansion of enterprise scale and the continuous improvement of production capacity, Xingfu Aluminum and GuanzhiMei Software have reached an in-depth cooperation to build a full-logistics automation system, realize seamless coordination between logistics and production, and jointly move towards the goal of digital-intelligent management.
Core Highlights | Working with GuanzhiMei to Build a New Benchmark for Aluminum Industry Logistics Digital Intelligence
The N6-ERP project customized for Xingfu Aluminum focuses on full-logistics automation, deeply adapts to the entire aluminum profile production process, and through seamless docking between the system and automated logistics, realizes automated, precise, and less-labor-intensive management of all logistics links. The core highlights are as follows:
1. Highly Automated Logistics Docking, Significantly Reducing Labor Dependence
The system is deeply integrated with the automated logistics system to realize automated flow of logistics throughout the entire aluminum profile production process: from extrusion completion loading frame push and feedback, aging furnace-in/furnace-out push and feedback, to sandblasting material collection / completion loading frame, anodizing material collection / scheduling / loading frame callback, all links are completed automatically without manual intervention, automatically completing material transfer and process connection. By replacing manual labor with automation, the number of on-site personnel is greatly reduced, labor costs and operational errors are lowered, making logistics flow more efficient and stable.
2. Full-Link Data Precise Synchronization, Real-Time Controllable Logistics Feedback
Relying on the powerful data capabilities of the N6-ERP system, real-time collection, synchronization, and feedback of data across all logistics links are realized. The transfer nodes, process status, and location information of each batch of materials can be accurately synchronized to the system, with zero delay and zero error in logistics feedback, thoroughly solving the pain points of traditional logistics "delayed information and inaccurate data". Management can grasp the logistics dynamics of the entire factory area in real time through the system, realizing full-process visualization and traceability of logistics, making logistics management more precise and efficient.
3. Multi-System Deep Integration, Building an Integrated Digital-Intelligent Logistics System
The project not only realizes the docking between automated logistics and the ERP system, but also completes multiple integrations such as anodizing line rack-on API docking, energy consumption data collection docking, and BI dashboard system setup:
- Anodizing Line Rack-on API Docking:Accurately synchronize core parameters such as rack number, model, length, film thickness, number of pieces, surface area, etc., to ensure complete consistency between production data and logistics data;
- Energy Consumption Data Collection Docking System:Through multiple interface docking points, real-time collection of energy consumption data across the entire factory area is realized, realizing linked management of energy, logistics, and production;
- BI Dashboard System:Large-screen display of marketing, production, energy, and equipment full-dimensional data, allowing logistics data and enterprise operation data to be deeply integrated, providing accurate support for management decision-making.
4. Full Module Coverage, Adapting to Full-Process Logistics Needs of the Aluminum Industry
The system fully covers the full-link logistics scenarios of Xingfu Aluminum's production, from order management, planning management, extrusion management, anodizing production, to transit warehouse, finished goods warehouse, material warehouse, casting rod warehouse and other links, realizing seamless coordination between logistics, production, inventory, and procurement. Whether it is raw material inbound, semi-finished product process flow, or finished product outbound, the entire process is automatically managed through the docking between the system and automated logistics, truly building a "precise, less-labor-intensive" smart logistics factory.
Benefit Comparison | Disruptive Upgrade of Full-Process Logistics
The N6-ERP project built by GuanzhiMei Software for Xingfu Aluminum, through the deep docking between the ERP system and automated logistics, has realized a disruptive upgrade of the full-process logistics. The benefit comparison before and after implementation is clear at a glance:
01 From [Manual Statistics] to [Data Synchronization] Logistics Feedback Accurate with Zero Error
·Before Implementation:Logistics nodes and material status were all recorded manually, with delayed data and large statistical errors, making it impossible to grasp logistics dynamics in real time;
·After Implementation:The ERP system automatically collects and synchronizes data across all logistics links. The transfer nodes, location information, and process status of each batch of materials are accurately fed back in real time, thoroughly solving the pain points of traditional logistics "delayed information and inaccurate data", realizing full-process visualization and traceability of logistics, with more precise and efficient management.
02 From [Node Delays] to [Smart Alerts] Ensuring Smooth Full-Link Logistics
·Before Implementation:No logistics alert mechanism, logistics node delays were difficult to find in time, easily leading to subsequent production stagnation;
·After Implementation:The ERP system sets logistics node time limits, with automatic alerts when exceeded, timely reminding relevant personnel to handle, avoiding process connection gaps, ensuring efficient operation of the full logistics link, and safeguarding the production rhythm.
03 From [Relying on Experience] to [BI Dashboard] More Scientific Logistics Scheduling
·Before Implementation:No logistics data visualization management, scattered logistics status, unable to grasp the overall picture, scheduling decisions relied on experience;
·After Implementation:The BI dashboard intuitively displays logistics transfer progress, material turnover efficiency, and full-factory logistics dynamics. Management can monitor in real time and schedule accurately, making logistics management shift from relying on experience to relying on data, greatly improving logistics operation efficiency.
Working Together | Building a New Future for Full-Logistics Automation in the Aluminum Industry
The launch of this N6-ERP project is an important measure for Xingfu Aluminum to promote logistics upgrades featuring "less labor, intelligence, and high efficiency". The project plan has been fully recognized by Xingfu Aluminum, and both parties are full of confidence in the results after the project lands. GuanzhiMei Software will continue to do a good job in project implementation, debugging, and operation and maintenance, living up to the cooperation trust, and ensuring that the system fully plays its role,
In the future, both parties will take this project as a bond to deepen cooperation, continuously optimize the docking effect between the system and automated logistics, and use digital means to help Xingfu Aluminum realize full-process logistics automation, standardized management, and efficient operations, promoting high-quality development of the enterprise.
