INDUSTRY 4.0 – PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY
Case study
— THE CHALLENGE
- Production efficiency can be improved by eliminating human errors
- Humanerrorslead to production downtimes
- Manufacturers are looking for technologies that provide a fast and effective reaction to downtimes, quick problem detection, fault analyses, and improvements
- Solutions that are provided with dedicated machinery are insufficient –as a typical manufacturing floor is a home for many different types of machinery coming from different vendors
— THE SOLUTION
- Recognition and reaction to visual signals regardless of the manufacturer and without interfering with the machine
- People detection (counting, gathering recognition, etc.)
- Immediate registration of the event in the system
- Immediate information about the event on the operator’s mobile device
- Operator reaction efficiency analysis
- Data analysis for continuous improvement
- Systematic approach to problem-solving
- Scheduling maintenance tasks
— THE BENEFITS
- Flexgent integrated with proprietary LINEGENT and DIRIGENT software provides ready to integrate solution to improve manufacturing efficiency
- Machine Learning microservice deployed with Flexgent helps to make a decision right at the edge
- Possibility to integrate with other sensing devices to deliver further improvements to manufacturing efficiency
