Case Study: ZMicro cuts work instruction creation time with NoMuda VisualFactory

ZMicro cuts work instruction creation from 5-6 months to 1 month with NoMuda VisualFactory

ZMicro, a manufacturer of rugged computing solutions for the aerospace and defense industry, faced challenges with highly manual and paper-driven processes. Their production engineer spent months creating work instructions using traditional tools, which was cumbersome and inefficient. To address this, ZMicro selected NoMuda VisualFactory as their manufacturing execution system to bring greater efficiency and structure to their operations.

The solution implemented by NoMuda VisualFactory provided a structured, linear system for creating detailed work instructions and managing the assembly floor. The results were significant time savings and measurable improvements: build time for one storage product was cut from one hour to between 15 and 20 minutes, while assembly and testing of their best-selling product improved by 25 minutes. ZMicro is now 95% paperless and anticipates further benefits from NoMuda VisualFactory's real-time reporting tools.
