IoT sensors can transform manufacturing equipment into rich data sources that feed a network of productivity information. Set-up is simple, with no infrastructure changes required. Our devices, which operate on a radio network, can capture either digital or analog electrical signals from machines. With data feeding in from all activity on the factory floor, you have insight into machine performance and process control parameters, with minimal installation costs. The sensors are capable of capturing multiple types of readings such as vibration, temperature and workload.

Thingtrax provides a tablet-based operator app that provides machine operators with all the information required to effectively run their equipment. It has a simple and clear display of equipment diagnostics, and allows operators to easily input new data, such as scrap, or manual production.

User-centric simplicity is key – the app is easy to adopt as it provides only the info required to make decisions within the operator’s sphere of influence. This reduces training time, enables in-the-moment capture of data from the shop floor, and increases operator accountability.
