Data plays a central role in the modern manufacturing industry. Key production figures, machine running times and resource utilization - all this information must be recorded and evaluated precisely in order to remain competitive. However, this flood of data can quickly become overwhelming. Especially in the production process, it is important to maintain an overview. This is exactly where the ZEUS® Production Data Capture solution from ISGUS comes in.
What is behind ZEUS® Production Data Acquisition?
A production process is individual. No two companies are the same, so there is no universal solution for production data acquisition. Instead, ZEUS® Production Data Capture offers a flexible and customized solution that adapts to the specific requirements of each company. Crucial data that accompanies the entire production process is recorded as early as the product development stage. A wide variety of information from the ERP system as well as manual entries, for example via an ISGUS terminal or mobile devices, are collected, processed and coordinated in ZEUS® Production Data Capture. This ensures seamless data collection along the entire value chain.
Key figures as the key to process optimization
Humans quickly reach their limits when processing huge amounts of data. But only those who know their key figures can identify weak points and implement targeted improvements. In-depth data analyses uncover hidden potential and make it visible. Key figures such as machine utilization, material consumption or employee efficiency provide precise information on how well the production process is working. For example, it is possible to determine whether cycle times are being adhered to or whether resources are being used efficiently.
Regardless of whether it is a small project or a highly complex production facility - ZEUS® Production Data Capture is flexible enough to adapt to any environment. By integrating machine and production data, all relevant information is recorded in real time. This enables precise analysis and offers the opportunity to improve processes without wasting resources. For example, a manufacturing company with regular orders of varying volumes can use ZEUS® Production Data Capture to monitor machine run times and simultaneously optimize order throughput times. This reveals where delays occur or machines are working inefficiently. The company can now take measures to avoid production bottlenecks and ensure delivery reliability.
Transparency from order to delivery
With ZEUS® Production Data Capture, every step of production can be planned and calculated transparently - from order entry to delivery. This has numerous advantages: Conservation of resources, cost savings and faster throughput times.
A practical example: a company that manufactures precision parts for the automotive industry was able to significantly reduce production times by using ZEUS®. The integration of real-time data made it possible to immediately identify and rectify machine downtimes. At the same time, personnel resources could be optimally utilized through the use of intelligent Staff Scheduling.
Perfect integration into the IT landscape
Another advantage of ZEUS® Production Data Capture is the seamless connection to ERP communication and the combination with other modules such as ZEUS® Time and Attendance, ZEUS® HR Management, ZEUS® Access Control and ZEUS® Staff Scheduling. Thanks to a wide range of interfaces, the IT landscape of a company is completed. This not only provides a better overview, but also ensures an end-to-end digital and networked production environment.
More efficiency, less effort
With ZEUS® Production Data Capture, ISGUS has created a powerful software solution that enables companies to monitor and optimize their production processes in detail. The flexibility of the software, combined with in-depth analyses and seamless integration into existing IT structures, makes it an indispensable tool for modern production. After all, only those who have their key figures under control can eliminate bottlenecks and drive long-term improvements.
