This wireless monitoring IoT system collects real-time shop-floor status data from PATLITE signal towers, providing instant visualization and analysis for improved efficiency. It offers a quick and cost-effective deployment while providing a strong ROI.
PLC data collection requires difficult network construction and programming, making it expensive. Additionally, not all machines have PLC data.
Many monitoring solutions are not within budget and take too long to implement. mcframe SIGNAL CHAIN can be deployed quickly at low cost, requiring zero operation downtime.
mcframe SIGNAL CHAIN collects operation data from IoT transmitters installed on PATLITE signal towers. This wireless system is easy to install, providing a simple and affordable method for shop-floor monitoring.
Real-time status changes allow you to monitor equipment and workstations remotely. Access data on any browser enabled device. Implement Call-for-Action with automatic Email and Text Alerts so problems can be taken care of immediately.
Review daily, weekly, and monthly operation charts to identify and eliminate problematic trends. Display charts on monitors on the shop-floor and in the office to increase factory awareness at all times.
Analyze important KPI such as Utilization, Run Time, Stop Count, and more to quickly grasp operation performance across machines, lines, departments, and factories. Input downtime reasons to help determine root causes for machine trouble.
Connect signal light status changes to a speaker system so team members can be notified for immediate response, even if they are working in remote locations.
Customers who upgrade from an inaccurate, delayed shop-floor reporting system to SIGNAL CHAIN's powerful automated monitoring solution achieve a 20% boost in utilization.
Automated e-mail and text alerts help resolve shop-floor problems faster, reducing overall unplanned downtime and increasing operator productivity.
SIGNAL CHAIN is easy to install, allowing projects to start small and scale up when required. This step-by-step approach increases the success of solution adoption and provides a high ROI.
Simple “Twist and Lock” system makes it easy to customize and reconfigure light and sound modules without the use of tools or threaded shafts.
A sleek, smooth form factor and an enhanced body construction makes the LR well-suited for harsher environments. IP65 & NEMA 4X/13 ratings protect against water and dust.
With a new re-designed lens and improved light module construction, the LR series provides brilliant, even light for visibility at further distances.
Faced with issues such as limited visibility and delays in performance monitoring on the shop floor, Mid-States Aluminum, a leading aluminum manufacturer in Wisconsin, Illinois, overcame these challenges by implementing mcframe SIGNAL CHAIN.
