Electronics Manufacturing
from Korean
The client is a Korean-invested manufacturer established in 2012, specializing in high-precision electronic components for global partners in the automotive and smart device sectors. Operating from a modern facility in Bac Ninh Province, Vietnam, the company employs approximately 600 workers across five automated production lines equipped with advanced SMT and assembly systems. Renowned for its strict quality control and export-oriented production standards, the client has built strong partnerships with leading electronics brands from Korea, Japan, and Southeast Asia. Amid growing market demand and complex supply chain requirements, the client sought to enhance real-time visibility, streamline production coordination, and ensure consistent performance through digital transformation with NxFactory Smart Manufacturing System.
Establishing real-time production tracking to monitor performance, material flow, and equipment status directly from the shop floor.
Synchronizing data between ERP, production planning, and quality management systems to eliminate delays and data discrepancies.
Implementing automated alerts and dashboards for downtime analysis, OEE/DLE tracking, and production efficiency insights.
Building a scalable and flexible system capable of adapting to diverse product variations and high-volume manufacturing demands.
Before implementing NxFactory’s solution, several issues limited productivity and traceability:
Lack of on-site supervision, leading to delayed order handling and slow progress tracking.
Fragmented operations and manual reporting (ERP, Excel, paper logs) caused inconsistent data and limited traceability.
Extended production cycles due to late detection of issues, resulting in increased downtime and wasted resources.
Inefficient communication among departments caused misalignment between production and logistics schedules.
Manual quality and maintenance processes slowed root-cause identification and prolonged downtime.
The absence of real-time dashboards made it difficult for managers to respond quickly to production deviations or evaluate true performance metrics.
To resolve the client’s production inefficiencies and limited visibility, NxFactory implemented the Smart Manufacturing System — a real-time shopfloor monitoring and optimization platform designed to connect data, automate operations, and improve manufacturing performance across all production lines.
Real-time Shopfloor Monitoring: Supervisors gained full transparency into production lines through live dashboards. The system automatically captures output data via QR codes or digital input, allowing instant identification of bottlenecks and deviations.
Production Planning & Progress Control: Schedules and order progress were synchronized across multiple lines and variants. Managers could track production status in real time, improving planning accuracy and delivery performance.
Downtime Management : NxFactory’s alert system identifies the top 10 causes of downtime, helping teams act proactively to reduce unplanned stoppages. This minimized idle time and improved overall line efficiency.
Predictive Maintenance & Equipment Readiness: Smart pre-operation checklists and predictive algorithms ensured machines were always production-ready, preventing unexpected breakdowns.
Performance Analytics & KPI Tracking: NxFactory automatically calculates OEE, cycle time, and throughput. Centralized dashboards allow managers to analyze performance, compare line productivity, and make data-driven decisions for continuous improvement

Centralized and Transparent Data Management: NxFactory’s unified monitoring platform improved transparency, responsiveness, and production visibility across all workshops.
Managers can now access consolidated dashboards to monitor OEE, DLE, and production performance metrics in one place, ensuring consistent factory-wide control.
Maximize Efficiency: Production cycle time was shortened, while downtime decreased significantly thanks to instant alerts and automated root-cause detection.
This improvement enhanced delivery reliability, reduced operational waste, and optimized overall equipment utilization.
Enhanced Connectivity: Across 5 workshops and 31 production lines, all systems were seamlessly connected and monitored in real time.
This integration enabled synchronized operations, faster decision-making, and consistent performance across multiple product variants.
Real-Time Alerts & Predictive Response: Automated notifications and predictive insights now empower teams to identify and resolve issues early — minimizing disruptions and maintaining stable operations.
As a result, monthly production output increased by over 3 million units, meeting rising global demand with agility and precision.
