Increasing efficiency and shortening lead times have brought a lot of attention to the amount of time machines are not in production.

  88. Automated manufacturing companies often underestimate the cost and amount of downtime they experience, even though it greatly affects the capacity of an entire factory floor. Below, we will look at some concrete CNC machine monitoring strategies and solutions to detect and reduce machine downtime to ensure that machines are generating the highest possible output. </div>

  98. While automated production machines operators are generally aware that machine downtime is a major problem in business, several studies claim that most companies significantly underestimate their true cost of downtime. In addition, a large percentage of companies lack sufficient data to accurately estimate the cost of their downtime, which leads to incorrect estimates and results in directives being taken in the wrong direction to address this problem. With recent industrial IIoT applications involving extensive machine connectivity and monitoring solutions, data collection is not an issue, and data analytics can provide a wealth of information to assess these kinds of problems. </div>

  108. In order to be able to assess the situation in the company and look for improvements, it is essential to clearly identify the main causes of downtime. By analyzing the causes, it will be possible to find inefficiencies, in some cases obvious and in others not so much, so it is a way to detect multiple areas for improvement. We will look at some of the most common reasons for machine failures and causes of downtime in manufacturing automation systems. </div>

  117. Regardless of the manufacturing process, all equipment has downtime, where it is unavailable due to schedule changes, tool changes, material, and part changes, or any other production changes that need to be made while the equipment is stopped. However, many of these processes are highly inefficient and can potentially be improved using measurement, analysis, and improvement tools. To do this, some companies choose to track this time manually, but this does not always result in good data, and the information can be inefficient and inaccurate. </div>

  125. Anyone who has ever walked a shop floor knows that to err is human, and even more so in manufacturing and machining. Forgetfulness, mistakes, or rework can result in downtime that can be considerable before it is noticed. The training of operators and the transmission of practical knowledge is fundamental to reduce this type of error. </div>

  132. <div class="elementor-widget-container">
  133. Material downtime is known to produce an associated cost, which many manufacturers try to reduce by working as tightly as possible with just-in-time manufacturing methods. This strategy has its downsides, as tight inventory can increase downtime in the event of supply chain mishaps. Having insight into demand forecasting and material supply can help mitigate this problem.

  142. Insufficient or excessive maintenance can lead to failures and excessive downtime. This point is again a possibility for improvement using monitoring software, as connected devices have the benefit of reducing your need for preventive maintenance. By accurately collecting data from machines, it is possible to better predict when maintenance is needed.
  143.  
  144.  
  145. On the other hand, it is also important to reduce planned equipment downtime (maintenance downtime) in order to free up resources and make it easier to detect the size and scope of unplanned downtime.

In line with the challenges identified in Industry 4.0, a study by Slovenian researchers asked the following question: How can KPIs contribute to a healthy and socially responsible implementation of Industry 4.0 in the industry? To do so, they analyzed dozens of companies that implemented 4.0 technologies and studied their relationship with KPIs. We will look at some of the key points that emerged from this research. </div>

  570. When setting up a monitoring system, you need to know what objectives you are trying to achieve. Establish clear KPIs and consider attaching an incentive for meeting each of them, communicating clearly and precisely the direction to follow. KPIs are essential to quickly understand the status of production and the business. Some of the basic KPIs include completion of a milestone on time, timeliness throughout the project, additional initiatives taken to solve problems, and overall quality of work. </div>

  589. <p>are other key elements, as mentioned above. In order to monitor and follow up effectively, it is necessary to have clear parameters. On the one hand, there is the correct use of indicators, but once we have collected the information: what now?</p><p><br />It is essential to find the most effective way to make the information as accessible as possible to the members of the company, adapting it to their needs. Some companies prefer giant monitors in the machine shop or office areas, while nowadays it is also possible to do personalised remote monitoring, to check the status of machines via notifications on a smartphone.</p><p>When it comes to productivity data, the presentation of information is critical: clear, timely, and accurate data, presented in an orderly and accessible way, is undoubtedly a key part of production monitoring. Visualisation is important and at xyndata we know that. All these current trends in machine monitoring converge in management systems such as xynLOG: whose computer software monitors physical processes such as CNC machines, robots, or assembly lines and presents real-time information that enables management to make better, fact-based decisions. If desired, this information can be shared with all customers in the network, integrating with ERP and MRP systems.</p><p>In summary, it is clear that improving the efficiency of a construction project is a complex task. But with a precise plan and consistent efforts, any company can take their manufacturing automation and CNC machine management to another level. Software and digital tools can offer amazing help in achieving this feat, and by putting the knowledge received into practice, you can ensure that deadlines are met most productively.</p> </div>

  729. One of the main advantages of the applications is the shift from traditional “fail and fix” maintenance to a more proactive “predict and prevent” approach, based on detailed data collection from equipment through continuous CNC machine monitoring. By knowing and scheduling the intended use for each machine of the process, it is possible to monitor the lifetime of almost any component within the system so that it can be replaced before reaching its maximum intended uses. This synergises with the information provided by the equipment manufacturers, in a virtuous circle. By monitoring the entire system, any potentially dangerous machinery failures can be identified, helping to prevent accidents, injuries, and downtime, with a consequent economic benefit. </div>

  737. Data collection and subsequent analysis by software provides concise and robust information, including reporting functions that include OEE reports, KPI reports, downtime and quality pareto reports that help to compare data by shift, machine, and individual parts.
  738. This information makes it easier to identify areas for improvement in machining and logistics processes: companies can increase the capacity of their equipment by reducing downtime, quickly identify production bottlenecks and measure the effect of implemented process improvements. </div>

  746. While remote monitoring has been around for some time, the technology has evolved rapidly in recent years. With today’s high data transmission speeds via wifi, 4G, and 5G data transmission, innovative solutions can be created. These solutions offer instant access to all machine performance data in real-time, providing information on a range of key performance indicators, including process times for high-performance systems, system functionality, and factory activity. You can access this data 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from anywhere in the world, safe in the knowledge that you will be alerted to any problems instantly by email or text message. You can even operate non-essential equipment remotely from anywhere using this technology.
