Manufacturers have to become more adaptable to multi-site and global operations by striving to use every inch of factory floor space, and by promoting a dynamic ‘work from anywhere’ environment to reduce costs and optimize productivity.
Solution
With portable access to the current state of the factory, personnel can monitor and respond to dynamic conditions remotely, and take appropriate actions to prevent serious problems. The Mobile Web Portal also supports transactions from a mobile device. This powerful capability is ideal, for example, in areas where it is impractical for maintenance personnel to have a traditional computer device.
Applications
Manufacturing Execution and Quality Management (MES and QMS) solutions for visibility, control, and coordination of manufacturing operations.
Platform
The Mobile Web Portal works in conjunction with all business intelligence capabilities available throughout Eyelit’s product suite; real-time alerts, key performance indicators (KPIs), dashboards, statistical process control (SPC) charts, and production reports with metrics on yields, throughput, and cycle times are all available, and include drilldown to view detailed equipment and lot information. Users can easily zoom into displays on mobile devices since the portal uses Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) technologies. Data access is fast because all of the information processing is performed on the MES server, and is simply displayed through the web browser.
Availability
April 2010 onwards.
