The XL800 visual display provides real-time information to enable your staff to have the most up-to-date information on their current performance and enable them to make the appropriate decisions to improve productivity.
“You cannot change what you do not measure”
The XL800 display with a Visual Factory system and OEE manufacturing software provide real-time information to enhance productivity and create a true visual factory environment – from the shop floor to the top floor.
Below are some situations that may resonate with you. We can provide you with solutions to these issues and many more with the XL800 display.
| Initiative | Issue | Strategy | Solution |
| Visually Display KPIs | We would like to display our KPIs but have not defined all of them yet and also don’t know how best to display them so that everyone is made aware. | Expose KPIs just as soon as they are defined and provide this information to the people most likely to affect changes that enhance manufacturing performance. Display KPIs as deemed necessary to support change. | XL800 production monitor can be reprogrammed at any time to show any of the more than 100 real-time process variables. Additionally the XL Series products have a built-in Ethernet connection and can push this information over your network. Imagine seeing real-time production data via a simple web browser! |
| Real-time OEE Display | Our company has identified OEE as a great tool to enhance manufacturing performance. Our problem is implementing it. | A visual display provides critical real-time OEE data to everyone involved from the plant floor to the boardroom. | XL800 production monitor display provides OEE visually to all levels of the informational hierarchy. With just a couple sensors, the ideal cycle time and a time schedule you can collect and display real time OEE on your plant floor and over your network. |
| Availability, Performance, Quality Percentage Display | We want to focus on one specific OEE factor at a time but want the flexibility to display other variables in the future | Display last event and/or total accumulated downtime. Other focused displays can provide target count/actual count data, real-time run rate and much more. | XL800 production monitors can show any combination of over 100 production focused process variables. Other features include the ability to push this information over your network via its integrated Ethernet communications. |
| Reduce Quality Waste | Quality loss is affecting our customer satisfaction. | Display good, reject and total pieces. Additionally show the percent good part yield. | XL800 production monitors can show good, reject and total pieces, percent efficiency, OEE Quality and more. |
| Reduce Cycle Time Waste | Performance loss costs us capacity, on-time delivery and ultimately profitability. | Display the current cycle, last completed cycle, average cycle time, small stops, reduced speed cycles and/or OEE Performance metrics in real-time and in any combination. | XL800 production monitors can display all of the above cycle time metrics and more including average cycle time, OEE Performance, number of events and cumulative time for small stops and reduced speed cycles to help pinpoint performance loss and recover capacity. |
| Reduce Downtime Waste | Downtime loss remains an issue and is a significant contributor to waste in our manufacturing process. | Start by exposing downtime. Real-time display of downtime creates a sense of urgency that is not felt in a report a day or week later. | XL800 downtime tracker production monitors can show last event and total accumulated downtime as well as the number of events and the average event downtime in addition to OEE Availability. |
| Event / Accumulated/ Average Changeover Timer | We perform several changeovers throughout a shift and lose track of our progress. | Record and display last event and total accumulated changeover time. Additionally the total number of events and an average changeover time can be displayed. | XL800 production monitors can show last event and total accumulated changeover time as well as the number of events and the average changeover time to really fuel SMED and quick changeover programs. |
