Cogiscan Launches Factory Intelligence – Analytics in North America
January 23, 2018 | Cogiscan Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Cogiscan Inc. will introduce its new Factory Intelligence – Analytics at the 2018 IPC APEX EXPO, scheduled to take place February 27 − March 1, 2018 at the San Diego Convention Center in California. Cogiscan will introduce the second major phase of evolution for the award-winning Factory Intelligence software to its North American customer base in booth #3825.
The new Analytics package offers a series of capabilities to analyze metrics and KPI over a period of time. Being able to collect and analyze key metrics such as machine OEE is key to enabling manufacturing staff to quickly identify any deviation from expected performance and quickly drill down to the root cause for corrective actions. This will guarantee that all assets always operate at optimal conditions.
The Analytics module of Factory Intelligence is designed for ease-of-use. Its open and modular architecture enables different modes of implementation:
- Factory Intelligence comes with a set of preconfigured dashboards and a tool for the creation of user specific dashboards.
- Alternatively, customers can integrate the Analytics data with an existing third-party Business Intelligence (BI) dashboard application via a standard OLAP layer (Online Analytical Processing).
Factory Intelligence runs on the standard Cogiscan platform, which means that it is a very simple upgrade for existing Cogiscan customers. With the largest library of machine interfaces in the industry, Cogiscan can deliver a complete solution; including connectivity middleware and applications such as material control, traceability and analytics.
About Cogiscan Inc.
Cogiscan is the leading track, trace and control (TTC) solutions provider for the electronics manufacturing industry. The scalable Cogiscan platform perfectly integrates with all major equipment types, and is highly configurable to enable a personalized solution to each customer’s specific production needs.
