Three Steps to Start Your Industry 4.0 Journey
With WISE-PaaS/EdgeLink edge data acquisition software, data collected from different machines and multiple facilities goes through the edge into one single platform, either on-premises or in the cloud platform.
With WebAccess/SCADA software, data is aggregated in the on-premises server, or directly transmitted into the WISE-PaaS cloud platform. Data is analyzed and visualized with the industrial application software.
Using contextualized and visualized data, both real-time and historical, in the Industry 4.0 Situation Room, enables managers to gain significant intelligence and actionable insights for optimizing operation efficiency.
KPI Management
Production KPI allows production performance to be measured and compared for real-time management. It also provides immediate customizable notifications so that appropriate people can be alerted in an unexpected factory floor condition or event.
Remote Access, Anytime Anywhere
Mobile access to dashboard empowers operators to view data and get insights proactively. It also supports managers to ascertain business intelligence, make decisions, and determine appropriate actions to take.
Dashboard Visualization
User-centric, custom dashboards provide a quick overview on factory operational KPIs. The dashboard visualizations include trends, graphs, diagrams, tables and process displays.
Real-time Data Management
It also allows users to view real-time and historical data in the Industry 4.0 Situation Room to support the managers to have efficient data-driven decision making.
Dashboard Management
Real-time Production Management
Machine status can be monitored as machine running, error, idle, and machine stopped. Integrated with MES, the work-in-process (WIP) information can be connected to machine status for analyzing and improving overall production efficiency.
Machine Availability Management
The runtime of each machine can be counted to calculate machine availability that reflects the percentage of planned production time the machine is available for operation. Machine availability can be utilized to evaluate the return on investment (ROI).
Dashboard Management
Production Management: Day Shift & Night Shift
The comparative production analysis of day and night shifts can be examined in detail on a daily basis, to further evaluate and improve the performance.
Changeover Efficiency Management
The average changeover time can be calculated to analyze daily efficiency. To figure out the small differences, accurate scheduling changeovers at the right time can improve operation efficiency.
Dashboard Management
Energy Consumption Overview
An overview of past energy profiles and current energy consumption data provides a systematic approach to identify problem areas and prime targets for energy reduction.
Energy KPI Management
KPI settings allow users to measure and review energy usage and efficiency of each department, reducing energy waste and improving energy efficiency.
Dashboard Management
Energy Consumption and Cost Analysis
Production is usually the largest energy consuming part of a factory. Energy consumption data and costs can be analyzed and compared with utility bills to help improve energy efficiency and wastage.
Machine Utilization and Energy Efficiency
Production-integrated energy management enables machine availability tracking with machine energy consumption, to enhance operational efficiency and allow preventive maintenance.
