Tooling Big Data Analytics

Moulds, dies and jigs are some of a factory's most expensive assets. When a mould fails without warning, the line stops. When defects show up in finished parts, tracing them back to the state of a specific tool needs data most factories never collect.

Golden Sea built a platform that gives every tool a digital record: its specifications, maintenance history, usage cycles and current condition. IoT sensors on critical tools send live readings such as temperature, pressure cycles and wear.

The AI module looks at defects in finished parts and matches them with the condition of the tools that made them. When a mould starts producing more parts with black dots or burn marks, the system links the two and flags that tool for inspection before the defect rate reaches the rejection limit. Maintenance is planned ahead instead of after a breakdown.

With the React Native app, supervisors and tooling engineers can open the full history and current condition of any of the 180,000+ tools from their phone on the factory floor, much faster than paper records or a desktop-only system.
