Service overview

Andon Boards & Traceability Systems for real production lines.

Andon Boards provide practical visibility of production status and field variables. A webserver-based architecture can make the information available on factory screens, personal computers and mobile devices without limiting the view to one workstation.

The system can connect to inspection stations, testers, PLCs or databases. It can show pass/fail data, stoppages, alarms, production counts, reject causes and event history. The objective is to make problems visible early, improve response time and create records that support continuous improvement.

What this service solves

Operators do not see line status or alarms clearly
Quality results are not connected to production events
Reject causes are difficult to analyse after the shift
Managers need practical dashboards without disrupting production
