The "production status" refers to the current state and progress of production processes within a company. This includes information such as machine uptime, production utilization, order completion status, quality assurance data, and other relevant metrics. Production status allows managers to monitor the performance of production facilities, identify bottlenecks, and efficiently control the production process to achieve time and cost savings.
Typical functions of software in the "production status" area are:
Real-time monitoring: The software provides a real-time view of production status, including machine status, current production, downtime, and order progress.
Performance indicators: It displays key performance indicators such as OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), lead times, utilization, and scrap rate to assess production performance.
Alarms and notifications: The software generates automatic alarms and notifications for deviations or issues in the production process to enable quick responses.
Historical data analysis: Ability to analyze historical production data to detect trends, identify bottlenecks, and continuously improve processes.
Integration with production equipment: It can communicate with various production equipment and machines to capture real-time data and accurately track production status.
Planning and scheduling: Support for production planning and control by providing schedules, resource allocation, and capacity management.
Mobile access: The software offers mobile access capabilities, allowing employees to check production status and respond to issues while on the go.
Reporting and analysis: Generation of reports and analyses based on collected production data to gain insights into production performance and identify improvement opportunities.
