Ready for the green light? Quality controls with the new measurement traffic light

Keeping track of all production-critical measuring points in day-to-day production management operations has not been easy until now. With the new T.CON traffic light application, this has now changed. Keep an eye on any parameters with color support and improve the quality and reliability of your store floor. The add-on is available for the in-house MES CAT application as well as for SAP Digital Manufacturing (DM).

T.CON traffic light for visualizing production data such as surface weight, speed and failure rates in production.

The T.CON measurement traffic light displays critical production data such as speed, basis weight and other parameters for quality control in production on a clear dashboard.

The weight per unit area, the speed of a conveyor belt, the pressure of a line, the reject rate, the temperature at a sensor, ... Even in medium-sized companies, the number of measuring points is vast. Although they do warn of problems if they are connected to an MES system, they still run the risk of not being noticed in time. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to production downtime and immense costs. The measurement traffic light is a further step towards secure digital production. It is a communication tool that informs teams about the status of processes and products at a glance. Any measured values can be displayed on the basis of SAP inspection lots. A more complex master data link is not necessary. Its colors are universally understandable: green, for example, stands for values within tolerances, yellow for warning limits and thus an important time window for inspection, red for alarms. 

Each employee can create their own dashboard with the measured values relevant to them.

As a specialist in manufacturing processes, T.CON has always been very close to daily practice and regularly incorporates solutions for precisely such use cases into product updates. 

The measurement traffic light is now available to all interested parties as part of the Quality module of MES CAT 7.0, probably the best solution for production execution in area-based manufacturing, or as a stand-alone add-on for SAP Digital Manufacturing (DM). As a cloud service from T.CON, it is quickly ready for use without a lengthy implementation project in order to be adjusted to your MES system or your measurement data.
