Pegatron (Indonesia) Co., Ltd.
— Comprehensive Lighting Solutions for Manufacturing Facilities
Project Background:
Pegatron (Indonesia) Co., Ltd. is a subsidiary of Pegatron Corporation, a leading global provider of electronic manufacturing services. The company operates large-scale manufacturing facilities in Indonesia, producing a wide range of electronic products. As Pegatron continued to expand its operations and improve its manufacturing processes, it recognized the need for an efficient and effective lighting solution to enhance the overall productivity of its factory spaces and ensure the well-being of its workers.
Challenges:
Before implementing the new lighting solution, Pegatron faced several operational challenges:
Suboptimal Lighting Conditions: The factory’s existing lighting system resulted in areas with insufficient lighting, which hindered workers' visibility and affected their ability to perform detailed tasks accurately.
High Energy Usage: The legacy lighting system, using conventional fluorescent lights, was consuming large amounts of electricity and requiring frequent maintenance.
Inconsistent Illumination: Different areas of the factory had varying lighting intensities, leading to inconsistency across workstations and contributing to employee fatigue and discomfort.
Environmental Concerns: As part of its commitment to sustainability, Pegatron was looking for solutions that would help reduce energy consumption, lower carbon emissions, and contribute to its overall environmental goals.
Solution:
Our team worked closely with Pegatron to develop a tailored lighting solution designed to meet their unique factory needs. Key components of the solution included:
Customized Lighting Layout Design:
We conducted a thorough assessment of Pegatron's factory layout, production needs, and worker requirements. Using this information, we designed a customized lighting plan that ensured uniform illumination across all areas, minimizing shadows and bright spots. This design approach improved worker comfort and efficiency while promoting a safer and more productive working environment.
Energy-Efficient LED System Implementation:
To address high energy consumption, we replaced the old lighting system with energy-efficient LEDs. These lights provided higher lumen output, reduced heat emission, and required less power. As a result, Pegatron experienced significant reductions in its energy costs while also contributing to its sustainability goals.
Optimized Lighting for Task Areas:
Understanding that different workstations have distinct lighting needs, we implemented lighting solutions tailored to specific tasks. For areas requiring high precision, such as assembly lines and testing stations, we ensured higher lighting intensities with uniform distribution to reduce eye strain. For other general-purpose areas, we selected lighting that provided adequate but softer illumination, reducing glare and enhancing worker comfort.
Integrated Smart Lighting Control:
To maximize energy savings and provide greater flexibility, we integrated a smart lighting control system. The system allows Pegatron to automatically adjust lighting levels based on real-time occupancy and usage patterns. By reducing unnecessary lighting during off-peak hours and allowing for specific adjustments in different factory areas, the smart system helped optimize energy consumption.
Long-Term Durability and Low Maintenance:
The new LED lighting system’s long lifespan means fewer replacements, reducing the need for ongoing maintenance. This not only cuts operational costs but also minimizes disruption in the factory. Pegatron can now focus on its core manufacturing processes without the regular need for light fixture replacements.
Project Outcomes:
Pegatron achieved a 35% reduction in energy consumption, resulting in a substantial decrease in operational costs.
Worker productivity increased due to better lighting conditions, with improved visibility and reduced eye strain.
The smart lighting control system enabled dynamic lighting adjustments, optimizing energy use while ensuring the factory was always properly lit when needed.
The upgraded lighting system contributed to Pegatron's environmental goals, helping reduce its carbon footprint.
Conclusion:
The lighting solution provided to Pegatron (Indonesia) Co., Ltd. showcases the importance of tailored, energy-efficient lighting systems in modern manufacturing environments. By optimizing lighting distribution, integrating smart controls, and prioritizing energy efficiency, we helped Pegatron improve both the productivity of their workforce and the sustainability of their operations. The project not only addressed the immediate challenges of inconsistent illumination and high energy costs but also positioned Pegatron to meet future environmental and operational goals.
