Still trying to get data from the shop floor to the top floor?
Our Tire Factory Floor Information System (TFFIS) has enabled tire plants to move data from machines to the plant data center since 1997.
Our customers have also used TFFIS to:
•
Monitor production, from the banbury to the final finish department
•
Verify processes, making sure the right product is processed by the right machine
•
Communicate changing production conditions to operators, maintenance, truckers, and supervisors
•
Maintain and view inventory real-time across the enterprise
•
Implement product traceability
•
Move actionable data from the production floor to plant and corporate data centers
TFFIS delivers accurate production accounting
•
Point-of-production and mobile workstations (access points) accept operator / machine input to provide activity and inventory tracking
•
Count production from equipment controlled by relay logic, PLCs or PCs
•
Reports deliver accurate reporting of production against designed objectives
Inventory management is an important TFFIS option
•
Implement raw material or manufactured product inventory in all, or specific, areas of the plant

TFFIS can automatically adjust inventory as product is produced and consumed
TFFIS delivers accurate production accounting
This example report shows production filtered by a variety of selections (Department, Date, etc.) shown in the heading.
TFFIS delivers delay reporting
Use these reports to identify critical or frequent sources of downtime.
TFFIS delivers better floor communication
• Alert supervisors or maintenance
about unexpected production delays
• Call for stock directly from a product
bill of materials
TFFIS delivers delay alerts to cell phones, pagers, or email addresses.
TFFIS can monitor production cycles to deliver quality alerts, too
• TFFIS looks for variance related to
production sequence or time
• When interfaced to the machine PLC,
TFFIS can send a quality alert, or if
the variance is severe, immediately
stop out-of-spec machine to prevent
further production (and waste)
