Virtually any machine, equipment or production line can be included in workplace and production line monitoring systems. The monitored workplace can be supplemented with a visualization LCD screen or STAB2 panel. One screen or panel is usually used for a single workstation to provide quick information to the workstation operator. The standard display shows the PLAN (number of pieces), PERFORMED (number of pieces) and TREND converted value of plan execution in %. The measured values are loaded into the
system built on DOMINO XPU stations and further processed.
The unique advantage of this system is the possibility of monitoring various machines and equipment regardless of its type or manufacturer, or even certain types of manual production! If the output information is obtained from machine control systems, cooperation with service or maintenance personnel is necessary. If a programmed logic output (I-0) is not available, for example for simple machines without control units, in most cases the required values can be read out in another way.
Visualization and analysis in PROTAGONWEB and PROLOGEN allows production control, compliance with technological procedures, times, work breaks and service operations. This data can be further analysed and exported to parent company database systems such as SAP.
