Production improvements based on real-time operational data
Manufacturing Insights is designed for teams that want to do more than just visualize production data; they want to identify concrete ways to improve uptime, enhance quality, and ensure more consistent performance.
Overview
Analyzing availability, quality, and performance in a work context
The module links production events, process parameters, quality information, and part context so that teams can identify root causes of deviations more quickly and prioritize effective improvements in a more targeted manner.
- Evaluate losses in availability, quality, and performance using a common data set
- Link process parameters, quality data, and product context directly to one another
- A foundation for root cause analysis, trend monitoring, and sustainable improvements
Areas of analysis for measurable production improvements
The module consolidates different views of the same production data set so that teams can identify the root causes of issues rather than just the symptoms.
Analysis Area
Availability and Failure Patterns
Disruptions, downtime, and lost cycles are made visible in the operational context so that teams can identify not just symptoms, but also set priorities for improvement.
- Downtime, lost production time, and bottlenecks: Make availability losses transparent by line, station, product, or time period.
- Error codes, alerts, and clusters: Identify recurring issues and prioritize them by frequency, department, or time period.
- Filter by shift, product, and context: Identify discrepancies more quickly, rather than just monitoring them at the KPI level.
Analysis Area
Quality and Process Stability
Quality-related process data can be analyzed by product, variant, and over time to identify deviations earlier and classify them accurately.
- Force, torque and temperature data: Systematically evaluate quality-related process values over time and by product.
- Limit value and trend monitoring: Identify unusual developments before defects or rework occur.
- Comparison by product type or variant: Clearly highlight differences between variants, formulations, or product families.
Analysis Area
Performance and Process Behavior
Key performance indicators are linked to process flows and contextual information so that the causes of deviations can be traced and improvements can be validated.
- Output and cycle time analysis: Compare key performance indicators by line, station, product, or time period.
- Deviations in the course of the process: Examine cycle time, parameters, and process states together to understand performance losses.
- Classification by line, product, and condition: Link performance variations to the product mix, shift, or production conditions.
Analysis Area
Product and parts history
Records and traceability provide the foundation for tracking and verifying anomalies down to the product, batch, or workstation level.
- History per part or batch: Track process parameters, timestamps, and contextual data for each part or batch produced.
- Proof of quality and export: Provide data for quality assurance, internal analyses, or documentation reports.
- Traceability back to the station: Unambiguously assign processes, parameters, and anomalies to a specific production run.
Typical analysis
Systematically Understanding Malfunctions and Performance Losses
Depending on the production line and the available data, the application provides support for common questions regarding availability, process behavior, and quality improvement.
Error analysis
Systematically evaluate error and alarm images
Control errors, warnings, and malfunctions can be analyzed by frequency, station, time period, or process context to systematically identify the causes of downtime and performance losses.
- Merge error codes from controls and process events
- Analyze top errors, temporal accumulations and station reference
- Establish connection with product, batch or process parameters
This is how we pave the way for improved availability, quality, and performance
Manufacturing Insights can be implemented using an existing database or in conjunction with data integration, and provides early, actionable insights for operational improvements.
01Classification
Refine goals for availability, quality, and performance
At the beginning, lines, stations, signals, quality features and relevant production contexts are categorized technically.
02Data basis
Collect data and place it in a shared context
Control, sensor and product data are connected and transferred into a consistent analysis model for lines, processes and parts.
03Utilization
Provide analyses to support operational improvements
Based on this, the necessary analyses are generated for availability, quality, performance, process behavior, and typical failure patterns.
04Expansion
Ensure measures are in place and add follow-up modules
If required, data stories, product reports or AI functions are added so that analysis results remain available and connectable within the team.
Extensions on the same database
Adjacent modules
Depending on how the teams work, Manufacturing Insights can be supplemented with collaborative or AI-supported functions.
Data Stories
Manufacturing Insights can be combined with data stories for the structured documentation of anomalies, root cause analyses and derived measures.
Manufacturing Analytics Copilot
If additional automatic context processing and AI-supported classification are to be created from the recorded data, the co-pilot can be based on the same database.
