Production Rules Configurator

Published on : Tuesday 30-11--0001

The Production Rules Configurator is a software tool that can be tailored to the specific needs of each individual user in their production environment.

The tool makes it easy to translate know-how into rules for evaluating process and machine data in order to trigger the required action in the event of deviations or trends.

This software solution makes it possible to achieve a fully transparent production process while simultaneously increasing production output.

Functionality     

The Production Rules Configurator offers a graphical approach to rule modeling that enables you to monitor adherence to specified parameters in your manufacturing environment.

The starting point for this rule-based analysis is provided by production data (process and machine data), which is forwarded to the Production Rules Configurator from existing systems such as a Manufacturing Execution System (MES).

Data can be incorporated from individual machines or from the production line as a whole. The production experts at each plant can then use a flexible and tailored method of configuring the rules to be applied to this data in order to create an optimum production process.
