The functionality for recording waste separately by waste reason at the PC Topp Machine Terminal has become a standard PC-Topp.NET feature. (Before, detailed waste entry was supported only in personalized versions of the DOS Machine Terminal.)
Waste at the machine occurs in three distinct locations:
- Before the machine
- During set-up
- During production
Waste entry in the PC-Topp Machine Terminal is done in separate fields to reflect those locations.
Those waste quantities can be further subdivided by defining detailed waste reasons in the PC-Topp Settings. An example would be:
| | Damaged board / Delaminated board / … |
| | Bad print / Bad glueing / … |
| | Bad print / Bad board / … |
In the Detailed Waste Report, the waste is then shown in detail, along with totals for each location.
If you have already been doing detailed waste entry using the old personalized module, please contact us so we can switch your plant to the new functionality.
