Wireless monitoring
Werma says companies can use the Andon light technology to monitor the performance and efficiency of production machines as well manual assembly and packaging cells.
This allows you to identify and eliminate wastage in the operation and obtaining optimised transparency of the operation.
Product features are:
• Monitors and records the status of any machine, equipment or manual workstation in a single overview on a PC or network system.
• Low cost and easy to install.
• Will retrofit to virtually any machine.
• Easy to use with no programming knowledge required.
A signal tower is fitted with a transmitter unit and the outputs to the signal tower trigger the illumination of the different status lights and this activity or status change is transmitted to a receiver unit plugged into the network or host PC as a date and time stamped activity.
The real time and historical views of data will give the user transparency of the operation, identify fluctuations in productivity easily and identify weak spots in the process. It will also improve reaction time to stoppages.
