Corrugator Monitor Shows Information Day's Production

Day Production In order to offer additional information on the total corrugator production of the day, a new section has been added to the Corrugator Monitor. Next to the main section displaying performance and efficiency figures a box entitled "Entire Day" has been inserted that displays the following values covering all shifts on the current day up to the present moment:

  • Area produced (in m²)
  • Lineal meters produced (in m)
  • Production time (in h)

The "Entire Day" section affords a quick overview of the production results achieved so far. It can be displayed or hidden according to the users' needs.

New Corrugator Monitor Gives Feedback to Corrugator Crew

New Corrugator Monitor Our new PC-Topp Monitors, as opposed to the PC-Topp Terminals, primarily show information, with no user interaction. They are designed to be easily readable even from a distance, with a clear-cut layout, extra large fonts, and they present color coded information for intuitive interpretation.

With the new Corrugator Monitor the corrugator crew can easily see the target speed for each corrugator run, depending on the grade and flute type being produced. A speedometer-like color coded bar shows the target speed and the current machine speed provided by the online connection to the corrugator or by the Corrugator Terminal.

The display's large figures contrast the corrugator's actual performance with its potential performance if it had been operated at target speed. A diagram of the past four hours shows the periods of above target performance in green and those of below target performance in red.
