Production Data Collection for All Types of Equipment
Wintriss Controls Booth 3430
Wintriss Controls Group, Acton, MA, will demonstrate its LETS asset-utilization and OEE data-collection software, used widely to collect data from metal-stamping presses and also capable of collecting data from press brakes, laser-cutting machines, tube lasers, turret presses, machining centers, automated saws, welding machines, injection-molding machines and paint lines. The LETS Machine Interface
(LMI) picks up signals from the machine to report its operating status, production rate and parts count (where applica- ble). A color or monochromatic touch- screen
allows an
operator to
select a
downtime
reason
from a
user-con-
figured
menu.
Built-in Eth-
ernet con-
nectivity
allows the
unit to
communi-
cate with the LETS server over an exist- ing network, displaying real-time status information for all machines on any PC on the network without the need to install any special software.
