MONEY
(MONitoring of Equipment efficiencY) is a fully automatic system
for monitoring of effectiveness with the possibility of manual
interaction.
The advantages are:
- Fully automatic, i. e. all changes of status within the machine is
registered and time stamped without any intervenience of the
operator.
- The possibility of manual interaction, so that further information
can be gathered. The system is thereby self-learning.
- Web-based,
so that all changes made immediately reach all users.
- Standardized communication interface via MMS to the machines, which is
available from most control manufacturers, for example Siemens,
Indramat, Fanuc, Allen Bradley, Modicon, etc.
The base in MONEY is a SQL data base for gathering all information. In
the data base you can figure your manufacturing by defining
machines, machine groups, departments etc.
For the administration of the system a powerful administrative tool
makes it easy to make changes as your environment changes.
The
web interface gives the users the possibility to interact and to
get statistic data in form of graphs and sheets.
In MONEY the users have also a completely manual interface, so that he
or she can manually feed production data for units or stations
which are not automatically connected (for example assembly).
A demo of MONEY will be available shortly.
