Acquire and Monitor Process Data: For Complete Quality Documentation

Analyze Process Parameters in Real Time, Ensure Traceability, and Meet CQI Guidelines

Sensitive process values such as pressures, temperatures, forming forces, or energy consumption directly dictate product quality. The EMC Process Data Acquisition module automatically links these live signals to the respective order, machine, and part data. If a parameter drifts out of range, the system immediately triggers an alert before scrap is produced. At the same time, a digital record is generated without manual effort, providing complete end-to-end traceability.

For companies in metal forming, the seamless recording of press forces and heat treatment parameters effortlessly satisfies stringent audit requirements like CQI standards. In wire processing, real-time monitoring of tensile forces and coating temperatures guarantees consistently high manufacturing quality across the entire spool run.

Traceable to the order

Easy access to the process data with the production number. The quality of your processes is transparent and archived in the module of the MES Software EMC through the automated recording.

Responsive in real time

Visibility for all creates the possibility to react in time and adequately, for example when the intervention limit is reached. The module makes it easy to identify weak points in processes.

Automated process data acquisition and monitoring

Values such as actual and target data, tolerances, throughput or holding times can be defined and read directly from the controller via OPC/UA or ModuBus. With an IoT gateway, the values can be read directly from sensors such as thermocouples.

Take process flows into account

Process data acquisition is more than just collecting cyclical data. Data that is not relevant to the process leads to error analyses and must not be recorded.

Condense data

Condensing data into information provides an overview of the processes and enables effective process analysis. Critical processes can be quickly identified and checked.

Order- and article-related process data, such as temperature data, are managed and can be evaluated by means of clear reports. This makes it easy to monitor the tempering process. The temperature curves are transparent and can be traced at any time.

Comment on analyses

Simply write your comment on the process analysis. This comment is transparent for everyone, visible and replaces the handwritten notes. This is especially crucial in the process quality management.
