Further Improvements of Plant Overview

An additional view for production times of the current shift has been added to the small Plant Overview on the PC-Topp.NET main page. Besides, the views have been reorganized to show more production information in a clearly structured way.

View 1, 2 and 3 show data of the current order, while view 4 and 5 give information on the current shift.

Current Order Data in View 1-3

While view 1 gives the current order's number and customer name, view 2 shows its production progress in terms of currently produced quantity, scheduled quantity, and speed.

View 3 displays performance figures * for setup, run and total production time of the current order.

Current Shift Data in View 4-5

View 4 displays performance *, average speed and totals of the current shift.
The new fifth view shows production times for the current shift, i. e. the total setup time, downtime and run time plus the work time. Additionally, a move of the mouse over the figures displays the percentage of the work time which they make up in white on a blue background.

For a quick overview of the five views see the table below:

* Machine performance figures: Performance is given in percent, and 100% performance means that the actual setup and / or run time were exactly the same as the expected times. Values higher than 100% reflect better performance (e.g. 200% would mean that production took half as long as expected), values lower than 100% mean bad performance (50% would mean that production took twice as long).
