Most of metal cutting and processing companies are going through the difficulties such as frequent downtime and high failure rates by missing times to replace parts of CNC equipment. The reason is that the correct operation times of expensive CNC equipment can't be calculated. In this paper, to solve this problem, we try to construct the intelligent production information system for a case company and analyze its expected effects. The effects are as follows. First, it saves money about 3 million won each year during the useful life of three years by reducing downtime and failure rates, and increasing production rates etc. Second, it makes easily find and fix the cause of faulty through traceability of the production process, and enables to perform a systematic facility management through the calculation of reliable equipment's overall efficiency. This case can be easily applied in similar industries, and will contribute greatly to enhancing the competitiveness of related industries.
