By automating machine setup, material setting, and sorting, it is possible to greatly reduce labor- 1 “Create Time” hours and shorten production lead time. Since materials are set in machines automatically and collected with consideration for the next 2 “Create Space” stage of processing, work can take place in a compact space. Though processes ranging from supplying materials to collecting and sorting parts, heavy-duty IoT Support Front 3 “Create with People” tasks and overall work load are reduced, creating a people-friendly work environment.
