4.0, EUROMAP, OPC, OLE, QC, DSN, SQL, VNC, MES, ERP, FTP, CMS, SPI — are you confused by all buzzwords being tossed around in the plastics industry? Not convinced the data collection is necessary? Or are you unsure of how it could be implemented and improve your molding processes?
Wittmann has been on the cutting edge of the data collection push for nearly 20 years. In this webinar, take a step back from the idea of the manufacturing facility of the future and discuss what you can do today to improve your process. Using readily-available technology, Wittmann can help reduce downtime, limit scrap and wasted material, and predict required maintenance.
Let the experts at Wittmann help you understand: what data can be collected, what that data can be used for, what systems are used, and how to implement them.
Agenda:
- Demystifying the terminology
- Tracking the material flow and lot information through the material handling system
- The data available from various auxiliary equipment, such as: dryers, blenders, mold temperature controls and robots
- Automating the process through changes in the data collected at the machines during production
- Adding visualization to increase productivity
