Deployment
Roll out in stages, without a big project up front
You do not have to deploy everything at once. Start with a one-month pilot on 1-2 machines and add the next elements when the data proves its value.
Stage 1 · data the same day
Sensors and data cluster
What you do
We set up your cluster and arrive with the sensors. We attach them with double-sided tape to parts whose motion comes from the machine's work, such as a press ram or motor housing, fifteen minutes per machine and without stopping production. For the pilot we bring our own LTE router. Together we write down the list of downtime reasons that will appear on the operator tablet.
What you get
Private data cluster
Live data in the browser and in the apps, without IT infrastructure of your own.
Machine state and downtime
You know when machines run, when they stand still and how long every stop lasted.
Work cycles
The number of cycles of every machine and the duration of each one.
Reports
A dozen ready-made reports with export to common formats.
Stage 2 · first month
Operator panel and mobile app
What you do
Install the FitMech app on an Android tablet at the workstation and switch it to operator mode. The same app on a phone gives managers mobile access to the data.
What you get
Stop reasons
When the system detects a stop, the operator assigns a reason in two clicks and can add a comment.
Indicators at the workstation
Availability, performance and OEE of the current shift, live for the operator.
Paperless production plan
The plan shown directly at the workstation, without printing and handing out sheets.
Data security
The operator panel gives no access to management data and mainly shows the current shift.
Stage 3 · first month
Andon boards on the shop floor
What you do
Install the FitMech Display app on any Android TV device and pair it with your cluster. In the dashboard you choose the machines and indicators to display.
What you get
Low-cost scoreboard
A TV or an Android TV box is all you need, no specialised hardware.
Visual management
Everyone on the shop floor sees machine states and plan progress.
Configurable indicators
You decide which indicators and machines each board shows.
Faster team reaction
Operators know the shift target and can react to risks before the shift ends.
Stage 4 · when you need it
Integrations and growth
What you do
You add more machines and data sources: a DIN rail sensor or a controller connection. Larger integrations with ERP or MES are delivered together with our integration partners.
What you get
Data from other sources
PLCs and additional sensors, such as pressure or temperature, in the same system.
Advanced analysis
Custom dashboards and analyses plus an integration module supporting more than 200 protocols.
API access
All data through a REST API, ready to connect with ERP, MES or BI.
Support from our engineers
We help with integrations and recommend the best way to get data from your machines.
