MachineMetrics upgrades production monitoring and analytics platform
MachineMetrics Compatible with any make, model and age of manufacturing equipment, including injection molding machines and extrusion machinery, this production monitoring and analytics platform captures and analyzes real-time production data and provides dashboards for complete plantwide visibility. Core to the technology is the MachineMetrics Edge Device, a ruggedized computer that collects and standardizes data from equipment before pushing it into the cloud.
What’s new? A completely upgraded platform, available since June, which includes automated downtime and setup analytics to pinpoint production issues; enhanced production insights to unlock shop-floor opportunities; and performance baseline data. The dashboard brings together all critical metrics in one place and provides filters for research.
Benefits The ability to leverage data to optimize manufacturing processes. The latest version of the platform offers the potential to compare performance over time and identify critical areas for improvement. Users can easily switch between critical key performance indicators, view trends, and get one-click access to timelines and diagnostic information.
