Manufacturing

The factory writes its own shift report, and tells you what the day cost you.

Book a conversation Why it pays

What it costs you today

Downtime is remembered, not recorded

A line stops, someone fixes it, and the reason is never written down. At month end nobody can say which loss is worth solving.

Maintenance is a calendar, not a condition

Parts are replaced too early or discovered too late. The expensive failure is always the one nobody saw building.

Reporting eats a day a week

Someone competent spends hours rebuilding the same spreadsheet from the same sources, and it is already old when it is sent.

How it works here

Signal, understanding, action.

1

Signal

Equipment state, output, vibration, temperature and power draw are read continuously, alongside what supervisors say at shift end.

2

Understanding

Every stop is classified and costed, and each asset is compared against its own signature rather than a generic threshold.

3

Action

Work orders are raised before failure, and the weekly answer to 'which three losses are worth fixing' arrives without anyone building it.

What it does from the first month

Six things, running whether or not anyone is watching.

Compares

Every stoppage explained

Each stop is captured with its duration and cause, classified without anyone filling in a form, and costed. You get a weekly answer to the only question that matters: which three losses are worth fixing first.

Predicts

Replace a part, not a machine

Vibration, temperature and power draw on critical equipment are watched continuously. A bearing changing its signature is flagged while it is still a planned intervention rather than a broken line.

Captures

Shift handover from a spoken note

The supervisor talks into their phone for a minute at the end of the shift. It comes back as a structured report — output, problems, what the next shift must know — filed and searchable. Nothing to type, so it actually gets done.

Schedules

Order the part before you need it

Consumption of spares is tracked against lead times. Anything that will run out before it can be replaced is flagged early, with the quotes you have already received put side by side.

Watches

Safety watched, not just filmed

Existing cameras check protective equipment, entry into restricted zones, and how close vehicles come to people. The incident that would have happened becomes a notification instead.

Estimates

Energy against output

Consumption is measured against what was actually produced, not per month. Equipment drawing power outside production hours becomes visible, and so does the machine quietly getting less efficient.

In practice

You ask the way you'd ask a person.

One place to ask

Eleven stoppages. One cause accounts for more than half the loss.

machine state + your maintenance log + shift notes

Downtime, last week

Classified automatically, costed against output

Line 2 — infeed jam 4h 20m 58%
Line 1 — changeover overrun 2h 05m 21%
Line 3 — sensor fault 1h 10m 13%
Other, six events 48m 8%
Total stopped 8h 23m

A Tuesday in your business

What this actually looks like.

A motor on the main line starts drawing slightly more current than it did last month. Nothing is wrong; nothing trips. Six weeks before it would have failed mid-shift, the system flags it against its own history and puts it on the maintenance list for the next planned stop. The part costs what a part costs. The failure would have cost a day.

Why this pays

It pays for itself the first time it catches one bearing before it takes the line down mid-shift.

What it connects to

Read as it is. Nothing here needs replacing, and nobody needs to change how they work.

  • Production equipment and controllers
  • Your maintenance or ERP records
  • Energy metering
  • Supervisor voice notes and messages
  • Existing site cameras
  • Spare parts and supplier quotes

What it watches

Where sensing earns its place. Supplied at cost plus installation, and never a condition of getting started.

  • Machine running state, output and stop reasons
  • Vibration, temperature and current on critical assets
  • Protective equipment and restricted areas
  • Power consumption per line
