The Importance of Collaboration
In Westerlo, the large DAF Axles and Cabins factory is located. In the cabin factory, 1200 employees work on various cabins. The production facility in Westerlo was opened in 1966, where 800 employees work on 475 axles per day in the axle factory. All axles and cabins are delivered "just in time" to DAF Trucks in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, and Leyland Trucks in Great Britain. DAF Trucks Flanders also has several supporting departments that ensure the production facility is meticulously organized.
Focus on Communication, Production, and Safety
DAF Trucks Flanders plays an important role in DAF's logistics and distribution network, with the produced parts being sent to various final assembly facilities. The factory in Westerlo is therefore an essential part of the DAF Trucks production chain, contributing to the production of reliable and high-quality trucks.
Engagement on the Work Floor
The use of digital signage also contributes to better employee engagement. By recognizing achievements and goals through the screens, employees feel appreciated and motivated to perform well. This can contribute to a more positive work environment and higher employee satisfaction.
Filtering and Sorting with Live Data
Data integration with digital signage in industrial environments is essential for maximizing communication efficiency and effectiveness. By connecting with various data sources within the factory, such as production management systems (PMS), enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, real-time data can be seamlessly integrated and displayed.
Strong Communication Between Management and Employees
Digital signage is used in this production environment for several reasons that contribute to the efficiency and effectiveness of production processes. First, digital signage ensures improved communication between management and employees on the production floor. Real-time updates on production numbers, performance goals, and potential bottlenecks can be shared instantly, keeping employees informed about the current status. This helps to quickly identify and address production delays, increasing overall productivity.
Quick Response with the Digital Signage CMS
Finally, digital signage allows for a quick response to changes or emergencies. Whether it's a technical issue, a change in production planning, or a safety alarm, information can be immediately disseminated to all relevant parts of the factory. This enables employees to respond quickly and appropriately, contributing to a smooth production process.
