The precision and safety of adhesive production have always been the core concerns of the industry. Faced with the limitations of traditional manual operations, a century-old multinational new materials group chose to cooperate with WPTEC. Through the DTS-EX explosion-proof production error-proofing and traceability management system, it has gradually realized the intelligent upgrading of the production process. Behind this case is a practical exploration of the in-depth integration of technology and scenarios.
Founded in 1902, the group is headquartered in Minnesota, USA, with products covering medical, construction, electronics and other fields. Since entering the Chinese market in 1984, it has established 9 major production bases in China, with more than 8,200 employees, continuously promoting the innovation and application of new material technologies.
Adhesive production requires accurate deployment of more than ten kinds of raw materials, but traditional manual operations face many challenges:
-
Low operation fault tolerance: Parallel operation of multiple scales and high similarity of materials easily lead to wrong feeding;
-
Delayed data recording: Manual entry is prone to information deviation, making traceability difficult;
-
Long training cycle for new employees: The experience-dependent operation mode increases management costs;
-
Slow process response: The efficiency of work order distribution and data feedback needs to be improved urgently.
The production director frankly said, "A small error in the raw material ratio may affect the quality of the entire batch of products."
Based on the actual needs of customers, WPTEC deployed the DTS-EX explosion-proof production error-proofing and traceability management system, optimizing the entire production process through four core functions:
-
Task collaboration automation
Docking with the enterprise's existing Work Flow system to realize automatic work order distribution and status synchronization, reducing manual intervention, and improving process response efficiency by about 30%.
-
Precise error-proofing control
-
Formula label verification: Raw materials are scanned and checked to avoid the risk of wrong feeding;
-
Dynamic error monitoring: Real-time comparison of actual feeding and standard ratio, automatic early warning when exceeding the limit.
-
Data closed-loop management
Batching data is uploaded to the cloud in real time, supporting one-click generation of production reports and batch traceability, covering more than 1,000 material formulas, and the data verifiability rate has increased to over 99%.
-
Safety adaptation design
The system meets the requirements of explosion-proof workshop environment, passes industry safety certification, and ensures stable operation in high-risk scenarios.
-
Enhanced quality stability: The rate of human operation errors has approached zero, and batch consistency has been significantly improved.
-
Shortened production cycle: Real-time data feedback has promoted an increase in process connection efficiency by approximately 25%.
-
Optimized resource utilization: Raw material loss has been reduced by 30%-40%, resulting in annual cost savings exceeding one million yuan.
-
Upgraded management visualization: The entire process data is transparent, supporting rapid decision-making and problem localization.
"WPTEC's system has helped us build a more reliable error-proofing mechanism. Especially in scenarios with multiple formulas and high-frequency production, the system's guiding role for new employees' operations is very obvious."

This cooperation case shows that in the field of fine chemicals, achieving process standardization and data closed-loop management through intelligent means has become an effective path for enterprises to improve quality control capabilities and meet complex production needs. Weiptek has always been committed to providing adaptive solutions to help customers steadily promote the digital transformation of production on the basis of safety and compliance.
WPTEC has focused on the field of industrial intelligence for more than ten years. Adhering to starting from scenarios and taking technology as a fulcrum, it helps customers achieve quantifiable improvement in production value. It looks forward to working with more enterprises to explore new possibilities for manufacturing upgrading.
