Software Adds Machine Capabilities

May 4, 2010
The vendor’s latest update to its shop-floor execution system software includes a variety of new features and functions. 
Besides the basic employee time-tracking features, the package now has a machine-monitoring software module and can produce machine-specific measurements in real time such as OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) and drill-down detail. This MES provides shop-floor data collection and now has added automated quality measures direct from external sources such as weigh scales. Production management is enhanced with additional rework features and alarms/reminders for under-reporting of expected quantities. The software contains various features that continue the vendor’s track record of building easy-to-use touch screen floor interfaces.Factivity Inc. www.factivity.com800.369.6377
