Real-time production board on the factory floor

Solution example: a screen on each line showing target, output, and stoppage cause — read from the machines, not typed in.

A line supervisor in a hard hat notes on a tablet while reading a production board of targets and output above a running line

This is a solution example, not a record of a client project.

In many factories, production data is written on a whiteboard and copied into a spreadsheet at every shift change. The numbers are always one shift late, and stoppage causes are rarely recorded at all.

What we propose is reading directly from the machine controllers, shown on a large per-line screen and summarised into one daily report. What changes is not only the speed of the data, but that stoppage causes finally have numbers attached.
