PC Topp.NET Plant Terminals
These terminals are designed for use with touch screens but can just as well be used with mouse and keyboard. They display permanently up to date production data in a clear, intuitive design.
- The Machine Terminal guarantees an up-to-date schedule and provides data for comprehensive production statistics. It offers the machine schedule, current order details, a graphical machine view, a system-wide messaging module, quality checks after a variety of events and more.
- The Multi Machine Terminal allows manual production recording without the classical PC-Topp programs.
- The Waste Terminal is used at the end of the corrugator. It shows the last runs produced on the corrugator, the current job, and the next scheduled jobs. The operator can enter the number of waste sheets for each run of an order and print pallet labels with it.
- The Palletisation Terminal allows printing pallet labels at machines without Machine Terminal as well as correcting and reprinting wrong labels.
- The Corrugator Control Page shows the situation at the corrugator, transfers schedule changes to the machine and allows modifying the run sequence to authorized users. It allows printing labels and production documents at the corrugator.
