The document discusses MDCplus, a real-time machine monitoring and manufacturing data collection system. MDCplus collects production data, tracks key performance indicators, identifies bottlenecks, and generates reports to optimize manufacturing processes. It connects machines to a central system, monitors operations, schedules jobs, and manages maintenance to increase productivity and reduce downtime. MDCplus provides analytics, report customization, and support to help manufacturers digitally transform production.

- 2. Let's find the bottlenecks in your production OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) is a globally accepted standard for measuring manufacturing productivity. In short: it identifies the share of the total manufacturing time that is truly productive.
- 3. MDCplus at a glance MDCplus is a real-time machine monitoring and manufacturing data collection (MDC) system with hundreds of customizable reports and charts that can be used to track jobs, parts, operations, work centers, OEE, scrap, costs, downtime and people. Use a combination of our software, hardware and services to transform your production into digital.

Discover the unrealized production potential Reduce or Eliminate: MDCplus can benefit both the one man operation with a few machines and the corporate enterprise with multiple factories Improve: Setup time Downtime Scrap Energy costs Job planning and quoting accuracy Personnel productivity Machine and resource usage Reaction times for failures
- 14. Why invest CASE 1 CASE 2 CASE 3 Without proper control some workers could have their machine tools turned on while they were out smoking. Dispatcher monitoring diagrams revealed such unjustifiable breaks – machines could be switched on but no-load idle running and no finished goods were produced. Initially they had equipment utilization 34%, then raised to 51% in just one year. Such an improvement made it possible to eliminate Saturday work shifts. One of the customers has a group of production and engineering people that meet weekly to go over the "Top Ten" downtime list and identify recurring problems. "Waiting QC" was a big source of downtime, so they modified their procedures and built more gages to allow the operators to do more QC at the machine. Using the downtime reports shop floor managers were able to identify the operators that required additional trainings. They asked the operators with lowest downtime number to do the actual training.
