Workflow (Stand 740) takes automated production line monitoring to the next level with the introduction of LineView.

Building on the success of the existing XL Visual Productivity Appliance, this tool is a web-based, automated advanced line monitoring system that’s modular and scalable from one machine to a multi-machine production line, making it a cost-effective option for many manufacturing operations.

LineView identifies the effect of downtime on the overall line output without the need for any operator intervention. It provides real time and historical information in an easy-to-read format, enabling production teams to focus their efforts on taking action to reduce losses rather than spend time interpreting the data. 

LineView is built on the iView ‘black box’ solution, which provides a platform for manufacturing data and incorporates a unique advanced true causal loss logic engine.
