Introduction

Fundamentally, the AssetManager product automatically reports the efficiency of production operations and highlights the salient causes of production losses. It has two discrete elements, a system component and a service component.

The System is the medium with which the production data is gathered and managed. This smart platform has been designed specifically to collect operational data from virtually any production machinery.

The Service component is the hosted data analysis platform; it includes analysis tools, an auto-analysis engine and hardware configuration modules.

Together, the AssetManager system and service components combine to provide clients with accurate, reliable and live business intelligence regarding their manufacturing operations and as a hosted service is globally accessible.

The Data Capture System

The AssetManager system has been designed to install on any production machine, it therefore presents operatives with a consistent data entry medium, providing them with a common interface regardless of the host machine type or manufacturer. So whichever machine an operator attends in a company they will have a familiar data entry method.

The system acquires data both automatically, via the simple wired connectivity to the subject machine and semi-automatically using an 8.4” touch screen operator interface where, using tailored menus, operators are prompted to enter pertinent information using this quick and simple input medium.

As an out-of-the-box product, the touch screen interface and associated I/O (input/output) hardware is supplied with easy installation and set up instructions. Although we are happy to provide this install & configure service if requested, click here for more details.

If the host machine has multiple operation locations, say on a long printing press, multiple data entry screens can be installed in selected locations, again allowing efficient data entry.
