Production Monitoring

What are the benefits of a production monitor in automotive manufacturing?

Production monitoring refers to the continuous monitoring of production processes in real time. The aim is to display the status of machines, orders and material flows transparently at all times, recognise deviations at an early stage and react in a targeted manner.

Effective monitoring creates the basis for continuous improvement, reduced downtimes and optimised capacity utilisation. It not only provides operational information, but also strategic key figures for production control.

The nemetris Production Monitor enables comprehensive and customisable monitoring and evaluation. Data from machines, MES systems and other sources are brought together, visualised and analysed centrally. This creates complete transparency across all production processes - in real time and across all locations.

Characteristics and features of Production Monitoring

  • Real-time recording of machine and process data
  • Visualisation of the production status (e.g. OEE, downtimes, throughput)
  • Integration of data from various sources (MES, sensors, ERP)
  • Event-driven notifications in the event of deviations or faults
  • Historical data analysis and reporting functions
  • Web-based or mobile access to dashboards and key figures
  • Scalable for individual machines through to entire production lines

Advantages of Production Monitoring

  • Greater transparency of production processes and system statuses
  • Faster response to malfunctions and bottlenecks
  • Reduction of downtimes and rejects
  • Optimisation of plant availability and capacity utilisation
  • Basis for continuous process improvement (CIP)
  • Better basis for decision-making thanks to fact-based analyses
  • Support for audits, quality assurance and traceability
