Can I get an MES up and running in less than 24 hours?
The pains of those who work directly on the shop floor are many. From the lack of real-time production monitoring, to ineffective communication, to a lack of insight into performance by machine or shift.
MES(Manufacturing Execution Systems) systems for controlling OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) can be the ideal way to minimize and even solve these and other problems. If well implemented, they make it possible to see the bottlenecks in the production line and make decisions to correct the route in good time in order to achieve maximum efficiency.
But just by talking about implementing systems, some managers automatically reject the idea, because they already think of the time and money it would cost the factory. But this doesn't have to be the case. While traditional MES software has an unclear scope and a complex and time-consuming implementation, Evocon is a solution focused on productivity gains through OEE management, is agile and accessible and can be the perfect solution for obtaining real-time insights into your industry quickly and objectively.
How can this new technology be adopted? How would the process of implementing the tool actually take place? What stages will my production line go through if I decide to test this solution today? We've prepared a step-by-step guide to demystify the complexity of these processes and make you aware of the simple and agile implementation process of our OEE solution.
1. Initial setup: After aligning the deployment strategy with the Neo team, you will receive the hardware for data collection, Evocon's IIoT device(a trial is possible). All you need to provide is a display device, such as a monitor, tablet or phone. Simply plug the device in and you're ready to go.
2. Connecting machines: There are various ways of connecting machines to Evocon, such as using industrial sensors, relays connected to PLCs, or even hardware-free methods via requests. Evocon's IIoT device captures production signals, such as counts in various units of measurement, which are then sent to the platform.
3. Training and Support: The platform is intuitive and easy to use, with many users learning how to operate it by exploring the functionalities. The NEO team also provides initial support to guide you through the first steps.
4. Production and OEE monitoring: Once everything is connected, the system collects and analyzes data in real time, allowing you to monitor the overall effectiveness of the equipment (OEE), identifying production losses and opportunities for improvement.
This combination of easy-to-install hardware and a user-friendly software platform allows companies to start optimizing their production processes in less than 24 hours!
