GlobalReader Smart Factory integration with Monitor G5

Optimising manufacturing processes is a constant challenge. The integration of GlobalReader and Monitor G5 becomes an essential tool, offering a dynamic solution to simplify production scheduling and raise overall effectiveness.

Handle Manufacturing Accuracy in Real Time

In production planning, it is vital to constantly monitor that the right things are done at the right time. In addition, It is also important that employees do not spend too much time providing feedback from the shopfloor.   The integration of GlobalReader with Monitor G5 adds even more flexibility for manufacturing companies to receive feedback, connecting both sensor-collected information and production orders in the ERP system. This enables factories to analyse in great detail the time spent on various operations during production, interruptions that occurred, and downtime reasons.

Manufacturing Reporting Redefined: Precision in Every Detail

The main functionality of GlobalReader's Smart Factory Monitor G5 integration includes the following: querying information about orders planned for the workstation from GlobalReader environment. Along with orders, additional information related to the order, such as operations and products associated with operations. Furthermore, information about related materials, and it is possible to add various product-specific details such as drawings, measuring points, tools used, and other production-critical information.

Reporting back to Monitor from GlobalReader is part of the solution. Reporting includes setup time, production time, the operator/employee involved, and the workstation where the production took place. GlobalReader also allows planning for groups of workstations and production on group machines. Reporting includes the quantity produced per operation, the quantity of defects, and the reasons for defects.

Data flow from GlobalReader to Monitor:

  • Setup time

  • Production time

  • Operator/employee involved

  • Workstation where the production occurred

  • Quantity produced per operation

  • Quantity of scrap

  • Reasons for scrap

Data flow from Monitor to GlobalReader:

  • Orders planned for the workstation

  • Additional information related to the order

    • Operations

    • Products associated with operations

  • Information about related materials

  • Various product-specific details

    • Drawings

    • Measuring points

    • Tools used

    • Other production-critical information

Additionally, batch order production is supported by the GlobalReader Monitor G5 solution, and multiple operators can be assigned to a single order. When numerous workers are working simultaneously on the same order in the production process, this might be helpful for team planning.

The Smart Factory

All things considered, the integration of GlobalReader and Monitor G5 represents a major advancement, providing manufacturing organisations with a complete solution to address the complexities of production planning, reporting, and collaborative manufacturing.
