"Explain why Assembly Line 4 missed its shift target."
Analysis Output:
Line 4 finished the shift at 85.5% target (342 of 400 parts).
Stoppages totaled 42 minutes: 15 mins planned changeover, and 27 mins material feed blockage.
Advisor Recommendation:
Conveyor speed was reduced by 15% post-jam to prevent sensor misalignment, causing a loss of 32 units.
Check spacer guide alignment during next maintenance window to prevent double-feeding.

FAQ

The questions we hear most.

How is downtime categorized and by whom?+

Downtime is logged by operators right at the machine. They select from a pre-configured list of standardized reason codes (e.g., tooling setup, raw material wait, mechanical jam) to ensure consistent data classification.

Can this replace our paper shift logs?+

Yes. Our digital logging cards replace paper checklists and spreadsheet logs, allowing operators to enter runs, rejects, and handovers directly into local tablets or workstations.

How does output data sync to our ERP?+

Once a shift supervisor signs off the shift report, the system automatically posts the completed quantities, job numbers, and scrap reasons to your ERP/MES systems via secure REST APIs.

Can operators log data offline on the floor?+

Yes. The logging screens cache entries locally on the device if the plant Wi-Fi drops, and automatically sync all logs to the server once connection is restored.
