dc.description.abstract | Thanks to fast-growing domestic economy and constant innovation of the industry, tire manufacturing has also thrived as higher-level technology leads to higher-level tires. Object of study mainly produces tires for motor vehicles, cars and motorcycles. Due to a narrow market and confined road area, competition in the already saturated domestic market has become even fiercer, especially since Taiwan has joined WTO, hence accelerating the import of tires. In order to compete among leading tire manufacturers on a global scale, object of study has accelerated the deployment of overseas manufacturing sites. And the only way to earn recognition in such a competitive environment is to develop high-performance, low rolling-resistance, safe and smart tires. Further research and improvement on the tire quality traceability will help object of study gain sustainable development among severe competition.
With development and improvement of application of information technology, traditional tire manufacturing process has also changed accordingly. The process that requires software for setting up standards to be strictly observed by man labor has been replaced by automated facilities and management software systems, under which tire quality can be assured.
This research, through object of study’s persisting improvement of tire quality over the years, discusses how software management system can bring higher accuracy, prevent material misuse and human error and, furthermore, set up a complete traceability system of tire lifecycle. Hopefully research result can be applied to tire industry to ensure tire quality and the customers’ safety on the road. The conclusions are as follows,
