Software
Using the second tier of the Smart Clamp Software, data
can be retrieved from the machine at any time using a personal
computer (Windows, or Macintosh) connected by either a
serial cable or an ethernet connection. If the ethernet
connection is connected to the internet, the machine can
be monitored from anywhere in the world. The reports generated
can be used by production managers to review production
rates, or to compare one shift against another. Taylor
service personnel can review machine data over the internet
and inform customers when machines are not operating properly.
Taylor operates the third tier of the Smart Clamp Software.
This is an automatic program that on an hourly basis
monitors a list of customer’s machines that are
connected to the internet. When production figures change
drastically, or the machine is recording an unusual number
of malfunctions, this program automatically generates
an e-mail to the appropriate person in the company and
to the Taylor service personnel. This will help to keep
the machines in top running condition.
This level of network machine diagnostics will set the
pace for other machinery manufactures to match as we
head into the connected 2000’s. |
