Real time Production Data Capture

01 July 2023

Customer Introduction:

This multi-national company in the outskirts of Pune manufactures & exports aerospace components.

Problem / Goal:

The production had to be captured in real time. The IoT solution was ruled out as each make of machines needed a separate licensing and the cost of putting an external sensor based eco-system was high.

Since the production schedule is available in OurSys, production data could be captured with minimal data entry.

The Solution:

We created an interface that could work on tablets and mobile phones. This interface has fewer clicks such as start and stop of the machines.

The Result / Benefits:

Now the shopfloor data could be captured in real time and planners could see which job was running on individual machines in a single bird's eye report.

Real time production data capture helps in quicker remedial action in case the OEE drops. This results in better productivity and faster deliveries.

Now this solution has been adopted by many companies. One of them has also further enhanced it by adding barcode scanning based data entries. This further speeded up the process and made it mistake proof.
