Responsible role

Loading workflow gate

Order / drawing revision check: confirm engineering documents and responsible people.

Start at the first gate. Every action creates a record.

Action records are saved in the central admin area.

Engineering status / Order delivery

Can this order be released now?

  1. Order / drawing revision check
  2. Ten-position fixture
  3. Common operations and first article
  4. Deliver five finished parts
  5. Five semi-finished parts with lot IDs
  6. New-order reservation and revision comparison
  7. Remaining machining / inspection / delivery
Action log and responsibility handoffs

    Times are exercise parameters, not measured manufacturer savings. Export the full action path or review it in the central admin area.

    Engineering workflow improvements

    Potential bottleneckImprovement in this versionProblem addressed
    Promise a date as soon as stock appearsCount only compatible, unreserved and released quantities as availableAvoid promising the same stock twice
    Issue old stock after a design revisionQuarantine the old revision, then assess compatibility, rework or remanufactureDo not automatically scrap or release superseded stock
    Evaluate ten-part batches only by saved setup timeInclude material commitment, fixture investment and remaining operationsCompare repeat-order savings alongside the current investment

    These are the Demo workflow proposals, not findings of defects in the manufacturer system. The manufacturer may retain, revise or reject each proposal.

    Every gate must identify the revision, owner, required input, retained evidence and conditions that block the next step.

    Manufacturer review and scope of 1:1 scope

    Case references and public evidence

    Shimao (predecessor of Yongmao) · China factory · User supplied

    • The user identifies this company as Shimao, the predecessor of Yongmao. The first two cases have factories in China.
    • The five-part order and ten-part batch come from user observations. The actual semi-finished hold point needs manufacturer confirmation.
    • The demonstration starts with five parts buffered after common operations; doubling stock is not appropriate for every part number.

    Haas · Multi-part fixture concept — Equipment-maker methodology reference, not measured Shimao cycle times.

    Three inputs to replace with real factory data next

    1. One real ten-position fixture and its corresponding workpiece
    2. Stock location, lot, revision, reservation and material-issue rules
    3. Fixture setup, unit machining, remaining operations and repeat-order frequency

    This version follows the supplied case conditions and public processes. Manufacturer data is required to verify dimensions, layout, interlocks, formal permissions and cycle times at 1:1 validation. Actual machinery must be operated under manufacturer procedures.
