EVOCON LINE EFFICIENCY LAYOUT How the system works? Display is placed in operator’s work zone (for providing instant feedback about the production efficiency to the operator) Signals are recorded from production line about the status of the line (efficient production, slow cycle, delays, standby) Workers select comments for stop & delays on the display Data is recorded in database OEE and other statistics measurements are calculated automatically Information is displayed in real time Reporting and data analysis References:
