Case Study: Condulimex achieves excellence in production, traceability, and quality with SkyMes

Sector: Electrical Equipment & Electronics

Introduction

Condulimex, a leading Mexican manufacturer of electrical conductors since 1985, prides itself on delivering top-tier products for the energy sector. As the demand for high-quality electrical conductors grows, Condulimex recognized the need to enhance its production efficiency, ensure seamless traceability, and maintain rigorous quality standards. The adoption of SkyMes, a state-of-the-art Manufacturing Execution System (MES), proved to be a pivotal step in achieving these goals.

The Challenge

Condulimex faced several operational challenges that hindered its ability to meet increasing market demands:

  1. Production Bottlenecks:
    Manual processes and limited real-time oversight led to inefficiencies in production workflows, delaying outputs and impacting delivery timelines.

  2. Traceability Gaps:
    The absence of a comprehensive system to track raw materials, production stages, and finished products made it difficult to meet regulatory and client traceability requirements.

  3. Inconsistent Quality:
    Ensuring consistent quality across diverse product lines was labor-intensive and prone to errors, increasing the risk of defects and customer dissatisfaction.

The Solution

SkyMes offered Condulimex a robust MES tailored to its production, traceability, and quality needs. Key features implemented included:

  1. Production Optimization:
    SkyMes streamlined production processes with real-time monitoring and advanced planning tools. The system provided a centralized platform to track production orders, optimize workflows, and address bottlenecks instantly.

  2. Enhanced Traceability:
    SkyMes enabled end-to-end traceability by tracking raw materials, production stages, and final product details. With detailed records, Condulimex met compliance standards and strengthened its ability to address customer inquiries with precise data.

  3. Quality Management System (QMS):
    Integrated with SkyMes, the QMS ensured that every product met Condulimex\u2019s stringent quality benchmarks. Automated defect detection, process validation, and real-time feedback loops minimized inconsistencies and waste.

The Results

By implementing SkyMes, Condulimex achieved remarkable improvements across its operations:

  • Production Efficiency:
    Real-time monitoring and optimized workflows increased production capacity by 20%, reducing lead times and enhancing delivery performance.

  • Seamless Traceability:
    With complete visibility into the production lifecycle, Condulimex achieved 100% traceability compliance. This capability not only fulfilled regulatory requirements but also enhanced customer trust.

  • Superior Quality Control:
    Automated quality checks reduced defect rates by 30%, ensuring that every product met or exceeded expectations. Condulimex\u2019s reputation for reliability was further solidified.

Conclusion

Condulimex’s success story demonstrates the transformative impact of SkyMes in modern manufacturing. By addressing core challenges in production, traceability, and quality, SkyMes has empowered Condulimex to maintain its leadership in the electrical conductor industry and build lasting customer confidence.
