Product description

With Smart Factory, you have all machines in view at a glance: on your PC, tablet, or even on a large screen in the factory. You can see the real-time status, productivity, and OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) of your machines. This not only saves time but also results in higher delivery reliability and better decision-making. With this application, you minimize time loss and error-proneness when searching for the right data: everything is readily available on the operator panel at the machine. As a result, search time is reduced by up to 60%. The CNC data is automatically used for post-calculation in MKG, without extra work for your employees. With a user-friendly interface and easy installation via the free Smart Factory Connector, you can effortlessly connect your CNC machines. This way, you get real-time insights into availability, performance, and quality, allowing you to take targeted action to optimize your production process.

The result?
✔ Higher productivity
✔ Better delivery reliability
✔ Accurate (post) calculations
✔ Satisfied customers
✔ More profit

The software runs on the ISO/IEC 27001 certified Microsoft Azure platform. Data-driven, future-proof production, smartly managed with Smart Factory.
 

About the integration

The integration of Smart Factory with MKG offers a seamless transition between machine data and production management. From MKG, orders and items are linked by Smart Factory to the real-time data from the machines. The linked documents are used to visually display the status. Additionally, the operator is provided with the necessary information, reducing the time needed to find the information. As a result, time-consuming manual actions disappear, and you always have up-to-date information for post-calculation, cost control, and process optimization. The connection ensures that you can act directly on facts rather than assumptions and gut feelings.
