1.Introduction to ARMS System
Assembly and Rework Monitoring System (ARMS) has designed and developed to
tracking and control automotive-assemble manufacturing system. The system start track since
assemble process until finish goods by reference from manufacturing process standard of BMW
(BMW Manufacturing Thailand Company Limited) ARMS system control Technical Vehicle State
since F0 to F2 (Responsible of T45 , T46 and T47) consist of follow production line:
Trim Assembly
Overhead Assembly
Final Assembly
Testing
Finish
ARMS system has developed by reference to RTS (Rework and Tracking System) which is
application to collection and tracking rework task, expanded to assembly process , add on “Web
Administrator” to manage system , and automatic generate professional report provide to production
control.

ARMS Component and Working Module description
ARMS system consist of three sections;
1. Web Administrator
This section use for manage master data and control data of the system , there are 5 submenu
for this section, that are:
1.1 User Authorization use for set users and password to access system , also
administrator can assign permission to each user from this section.
1.2 Model and Lot use for add and set up master data of model and lot of each orders. In
this section users can manage master data of Series , Model , Lot and register chassis
no. for start production process.
1.3 Station and Routing use for manage working area , working module , working
station , production routing , routing table. System separate to two station which are
tracking station and rework station.
1.4 Rework Definition use for define Type of Defect , Part Description, Rework Activity
, Classification , Responsible and Standard time. This section support both of Thai
and English language.
1.5 Holiday Calendar use for define working time and holiday which system can use for
calculate total production time.
1.6 Report Setting use for define report format and target to tracking on report.
2 Tracking Module
Tracking module use for record working result in each station , system design separate screen
for each station so administrator can easy assign permission for only users who has
authorization to record in each station. ARMS system separate working station to 2 type;
2.1 Tracking Station, represent to web form to record working result and tracking
historical of passed station .
2.2 Rework Station, represent to web form to record rework result in each rework
station , user can update or override rework record till confirm rework record.
Confirmed job can update from only authorize users. This system provide support for
dynab case.
3 Professional Report
ARMS system provide many professional reports for control shop floor status, production
historical included description of rework records. Users can search and filter data to show in many
styles of graph and export to MS word , Ms Excel , Adobe Acrobat or print out from printer.
3.1 Car History : report to show production history of each car .

3.2 List of Car : report to show status of cars in production line or finish goods that
users can filter by many conditions.
3.3 List of Problems : report to show the frequency of problems that found, users can
search by calendar week or by month.
3.4 Car in F0-F2 : report to show totally car in production line , which can group by
working station and series.
3.5 Inline/Offline Monitoring : report to show rework historical of car by category two
type of rework (M/E or Praint) and report for direct runner cars.
Page 3
3.6 Production Report : represent report by many style of graph which consist of :
3.6.1 Average rework time report
3.6.2 Top Ten Defect report
3.6.3 Direct runner report
3.6.4 Offline rework report
3.7 FIFO Monitoring : this report provide work-sequent practice for production
operators to make more convenience when proceed the car on each station
3.8 List of Dynab : this report provide rework information (only dynab case) for
production operators to make more convenience to retrieve and look for the actual car
to complete process of dynab activities
3.9 DPU Report : provides the summarized reports, chart format which present defect
per unit follow the actual rework records on production.
For more information about Web Administration module describe in Chapter 2 , Tracking Module in
Chapter3 and Professional Report in Chapter 4.
