Aerospace production, readable phase by phase.

For LMA, Quindi turned machine data, work orders, and operational activities into clear, reliable information, reducing manual input and increasing traceability across production phases.

AEROSPACE

MANUFACTURING

Production coverage

A single view across different machines, from new assets to legacy equipment. Fewer blind spots, less partial visibility, and greater control over the plant.

Phase traceability

Every phase leaves a useful trace: what happened, where, when, by whom, and on which order.

Automatic data collection

Less manual input, fewer late entries, and less fragile information. Data is captured from the field and becomes more reliable from the start.

Context

LMA manufactures mechanical components for the aerospace sector, working on complex metal parts used in aeronautical and space applications.
The company operates within a highly critical supply chain, where precision, reliability, and production quality are essential requirements. Every component must meet strict technical standards and contribute to the performance of the systems it becomes part of.

Challenge

Production was
moving forward.
Process visibility was not.

LMA needed to move beyond partial production visibility. The existing system could track some phases, but it did not yet provide a complete view of the times and events that make up the real production process: setup, machine work, operator activities, stops, idle time, errors, and causes of downtime.In aerospace production, this level of granularity is decisive.

Know that an order has been processed it's just the baseline. You need to reconstruct how it was processed, on which asset, by which operator, and under which operating conditions.

Quindi’s objective was clear: turn scattered factory signals into a continuous view of production, connecting assets, operators, work orders, and critical events in a system capable of showing what is happening while it happens.

Quindi Approach

How we turned tracking into control.

To build a more reliable reading of LMA’s production process, Quindi connected production assets, integrated ERP orders, and automated operational tracking through RFID technology.
By combining these sources, Quindi reconstructs lead time, working time, estimated setup, machine stops, idle time, errors, and causes of downtime. Production is no longer just recorded. It becomes readable, in real time.

Connecting
the assets

Quindi integrated both new machines and legacy equipment, collecting data directly from the shop floor: machine states, errors, productivity, and available parameters for each asset.

Connecting
the orders

Production orders are imported from the ERP and turned into work orders: traceable operational phases. This makes it possible to associate every production activity with a specific order, asset, and moment in the process.

Reducing
manual input

Using RFID tags applied to paper orders and operator badges, Quindi automatically detects the start and end of phases at work centers. Operators do not need to manually enter every step: the system captures data while the work happens.

Making production events readable

By combining machine data, ERP, and RFID, Quindi reconstructs lead time, working time, estimated setup, stops, idle time, errors, and causes of downtime. Production becomes readable phase by phase.

Results

From scattered signals
to readable production.

Automatic tracking

Less manual data entry and more reliable collection of production data.

Asset visibility

Machine states monitored across working, setup, idle, error, and micro-stop conditions.

Shared KPIs

A common data foundation for production, quality, and operations.

Inefficiency detection

The ability to read waste, non-productive time, setup, anomalies, and bottlenecks.

Progress control

A clearer view of execution by work order, phase, and work center.
