WINTRISS CONTROLS GROUP introduced a hardware device to pair with its ShopFloorConnect® OEE and production tracking software. The cost-effective Tracker is designed to simplify and maximize data collection, while minimizing operator involvement. For capturing and tracking process parameters, customers can choose from several pre-programmed digital inputs, such as run/ idle and counting, and analog inputs including temperature, pressure, voltage, and electrical current.
Run/ idle or count data is particularly helpful for metal forming and fabricating operations. Inputs are viewable in different formats, depending on operator preference.
“We are excited to introduce the Tracker,” stated Keith Magnant, general manager, Wintriss Controls Group. “Based on customer feedback seeking a reimagined, easy-to-use hardware solution for tracking a range of inputs, we developed the new device to enable unique machine data to be automatically sent to ShopFloorConnect software.”
ShopFloorConnect is scalable and robust, and offers manufacturers easy-to-use software for increased efficiency and reduced downtime, including when remote monitoring is required. According to the developer, the software can significantly increase manufacturing capacity and profitability by identifying and quantifying excessive production losses and bottlenecks.
The Tracker device is WiFi-enabled and pre-programmed to be integrated easily into existing or new ShopFloorConnect installations on almost any type of machine.
